Up On The Roof
Robson & Jerome Lyrics

Up on the roof
The singer finds solace and peace while on the roof.

Up on the roof
Reiterating the singer’s love for being on the roof to escape the burdens of life.

When this old world starts getting me down
When the difficulties of life start to weigh the singer down.

And people are just too much for me to face
When dealing with other people becomes too much to bear.

(Up on the roof)
Reiterating the singer’s love for being on the roof to escape the burdens of life.

I climb way up to the top of the stairs
The singer climbs to the rooftop for solace.

And all my cares just drift right into space
Being on the rooftop helps the singer to forget their worries.

(Up on the roof)
Reiterating the singer’s love for being on the roof to escape the burdens of life.

On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
The singer finds peace and calmness while on the roof.

And there the world below can't bother me
Being on the roof helps the singer distance themselves from the problems of the world below.

So let me tell you now
The singer wants to share their joy of being on the roof with someone else.

When I come home feelin' tired and beat
The singer is exhausted after a long day and needs to unwind.

I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
The singer goes up to the roof to breathe in fresh air, which helps them feel better.

I get away from the hustling crowds
The singer seeks solitude from the hustle and bustle of crowds.

And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)
Being on the roof allows the singer to escape the chaos and noise of city life.

On the roof's, the only place I know
The roof is the only place that the singer feels completely at peace.

Where you just have to wish to make it so
Being on the roof feels like a dream come true for the singer.

Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)
The singer wants to take someone with them to share the experience of being on the roof.

At night the stars put on a show for free
The singer loves looking at the stars on the rooftop at night.

And, darling, you can share it all with me
The singer invites a loved one to join them in stargazing on the roof.

I keep a-tellin' you
The singer is emphasizing their love for the rooftop to their loved one.

Right smack dab in the middle of town
Despite being in the middle of the city, the rooftop is a paradise for the singer.

I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)
The roof is a paradise that helps the singer forget about their problems.

And if this world starts getting you down
The singer wants to take their loved one to the roof to escape from the troubles of the world.

There's room enough for two
Two people can find peace and solace on the roof together.

Up on the roof (up on the roof)
Reiterating the love and comfort that the singer finds on the roof.

Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)
The singer is inviting their loved one to join them on the roof.

Oh, come on, girl (up on the roof)
The singer wants their girlfriend to join them on the rooftop to share the experience.
