Thinking about NYC, our home for several years... this song is about relieving intensity, gaining perspective, and making space for each other...

Words and Music by Carole King and Gerry Goffin

UP ON THE ROOF
When this old world starts getting me down, and people are just too much for me to face.

I climb way up to the top of the stairs, and all my cares just drift right into space.

On the roof it’s peaceful as can be, and there the world below can’t bother me.

When I get home feeling tired and beat, I go up where the air is fresh and sweet.

I get away from the hustling crowds, and all that rat race noise down in the street.

At night, the stars put on a show for free, and darling, you can share it all with me.

Let me tell you, right smack dab, in the middle of town, I found a paradise that’s trouble-proof.

So if this world starts getting you down, there’s room enough for two, up on the roof.
