Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
I never knew it could feel
Just like a dream but so real
I took a chance and found all the strength I needed
I look around above you, I live without gratitude
[Unverified] go for the wind and I will 'cause I believe that
Everyone could be a star
Don't you know within you are
And it feels so good standin' up here
On top of the world
I never wanna come down
I could stay forever, yeah
On top of the world
'Cause it's everything I want now
There is nothing better
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
So when you dream, deep inside
When ya never know 'till when you try
So when you see it's your chance ya gotta take it
I look around every face
Hear the crowd scream my name, I'm gonna win
Because I know I'm gonna make it
Everyone could be a star
Don't you know within you are
And it feels so good standing up here
On top of the world
I never wanna come down
I could stay forever, yeah
On top of the world
'Cause it's everything I want now
There is nothing better
On top of the world
Since where will be the end
Because you know I like it here

Always need ya right by me
Every stars a big shine
And everybody's got there own life
