On The Roof lyrics
by Billie Joe Armstrong
Gather round for the fire
The stars are out on the town tonight
Dancing, laughing, rolling around
And I'll be up at the top tonight
I sat and asked for a few pages more
The end of this chapter has come so soon
My eyes were fixed for what was in store
But then my head got trapped by the moon...
I said I wanna sit on the roof with you
And I wanna, but the road is taking me soon
I wanna sit on the roof with you
I wanna, and I'll make the best of it too because I won't give up
I jumped the cliff with a deep breath in
I still can't breathe and I've still been falling
The best is the question that seems to live on
As the lighthouse stays and the boats come calling
I feel like this story ain't close to an end
This is a tale too close to the book
Tuesdays cakes, and songs are sung
Then I'll find where the words live on...
I said I wanna sit on the roof with you
And I wanna, but the road is taking me soon
I wanna sit on the roof with you
I wanna, and I'll make the best of it too because I won't give up
