Back On Top Lyrics - Back On Top - Van Morrison

You came to see me when the moon was new 

saw you standin' in the pouring rain 

left my message on the window pain 

back on the street again 

back on the beat again 

i'm back on the top again 

Saw me climbing to the top of the hill 

you saw me meeting with the fools on the hill 

learned my lesson and i had my fill 

learnt it all in vain 

went through it all again 

now i'm back on the top again 

Always strivin', always climbing way beyond my will 

same old sensation, isolation at the top of the bill 

always seeming, like i'm moving but i'm really going slow 

what do you do when you get to the top and there's nowhere to go 

Just how i get there will be anybody's guess 

with all the so called trappings of success 

left all the deadbeats on the top of the hill 

too busy raisin' cain 

i'm back on the street again 

i'm back on the top again 

Always strivin', always climbing way beyond my will 

it's the same old sensation, isolation at the top of the hill 

always seeming, like i'm moving but i'm really going slow 

you'll find out when you get to the top that there's nowhere to go 

How you get there will be anybody's guess 

with all the so called trappings of success 

left all the deadbeats on the top of the hill 

too busy raisin' cain 

i'm back on the street again 

i'm back on the top again 

Back on my feet again 

i'm back on the street again 

i'm back on the top again
