Top Of The City Lyrics - The Red Shoes - Kate Bush

One more step to the top of the city 

Where just a couple of pigeons are livin' 

Up on the angel's shoulders 

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

It looks like hell down there 

These streets have never been paved with gold 

Welcome to the loneliest city in the world 

It's no good for you, baby 

It's no good for you, now 

Keep lookin' 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 

Put me up on the angel's shoulders 

See how that buildin' there is nearly built 

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

I see you walkin' down the street with her 

I see your lights goin' on and off 

She's no good for you, baby 

She's no good for you, now 

Look, I'm here with the ladder 

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 

I don't mind if it's dangerous 

I don't mind if it's rainin' 

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 

An' put me up on the angel's shoulders 

Ooo, aaa 

Ooo, aaa 

Ooo, aaa
