Rooftops

Standing on rooftops
Watching the stars in the sky
Clouds telling stories
As they pass on by

Up in the heavens
This world looks so small
Makes you wonder
If it’s even real at all

When everything gets crowded
There’s one place you can go

Why stay on the ground
Where the magic is missing?
Why not head up to the sky where the worries all fly away
Just go up there where no one cares what you say or do
Up on rooftops; the world stops

Sitting on pavement
Watching the cars going by
Noise and confusion
Can’t shake it if you try

Down in the city
All the rules to obey
Stop the words
You’re always fighting just to say
