Top Of The City [The Red Shoes]

                One more step to the top of the city

                Where just a couple of pigeons are living

                Up on the angel's shoulders

                                (Oh oh)

                                (Oh oh)

                I don't know if I'm closer to Heaven but

                                (Oh oh)

                It looks like Hell down there

                                (Oh oh)

                These streets have never been paved with gold

                                (Oh oh)

                Welcome to the loneliest city in the world

                It's no good for you baby

                It's no good for you now                [Sirens]

                Keep looking up for the ladder

                                I don't know if you'll love me for it

                                But I don't think we should suffer this

                                There's just one thing we can do about it

                                Take me up to the top of the city

                                Take me up to the top of the city

                                Take me up to the top of the city

                                And put me up on the angel's shoulders

                                (Oh oh)

                                (Oh oh)

                See how that building there is nearly built

                                (Oh oh)

                There's a big fire over on the north of the city

                                (Oh oh)

                I see you walking down the street with her

                                (Oh oh)

                I see your lights going on and off

                She's no good for you baby

                She's no good for you now

                Look I'm here with the ladder     [Sirens]

                                I don't know if you love me or not

                                But I don't think we should ever suffer

                                There's just one thing we can do about this

                                Take me up to the top of the city

                                Take me up to the top of the city

                                Up to the highest point of the city

                                One more step to the top of the city

                                Put me up on the angel's shoulders

                And I don't mind if it's dangerous

                I don't mind if it's raining

                Take me up to the top of the city

                                And put me up on the angel's shoulders

                                Take me up to the top of the city

                                Mmm yes, one more step to the top of the city

                                And put me up on the angel's shoulders
