There was a time, once in my life
I was a lot like you
I lied to myself, hid from the truth
Yeah, I was a lot like you
I lived like a king, acted the fool
Thought I was satisfied
Betrayed by a kiss
Is that all there is
None of it really matters
What a way to live your life
When you gonna get enough?
Why you always keeping score
Coz you ain' t all that tough...
[Chorus:]
All of your gold, all of your toys
None of it matters
Look at yourself in your little world
None of it matters
You got a destination (Top of the world)
And you got a reservation
You look at her, she looks away
She' s not impressed with you
No not like before, so open your eyes
Can' t buy her happiness
Tell me whatcha do it for
Don' tcha ever feel ashamed
All you ever want is more
So when you getting off the train?
(Repeat chorus)
She don' t want your diamond rings
But she wants to feel alive
She' s more than just your pretty thing
She needs love, she' s a human being
You got a destination (Top of the world)
And you got a reservation
(Repeat chorus)
