[Verse 1]
Never seen a sky so blue
Never been happy with anyone
Like I am when I'm with you, yeah
Look at the sun shining up in the sky
I feel a little closer to Heaven, baby
When I'm looking into your eyes

[Chorus]
And as long as we're together, boy
I'm sittin' on top of the world
Wanna feel this way forever, boy
I'm sittin' on top of the world, oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Last night I lay in the dark
Tryin' to figure it out
Tryin' to talk to my heart
Now it's morning, and I still don't know why
All I know is that you got me feeling so good, baby
All I know is that it feels the way that true love should
Ain't no one luckier than you and I

[Chorus]
As long as we're together, boy
I'm sittin' on top of the world
Wanna feel this way forever, boy
I'm sittin' on top of the world

[Bridge]
Everybody's got an opinion 'bout how this should be
But they don't understand it
No, no they just can't see, yeah
That I belong with you and baby, baby
Baby, you belong with me

[Chorus]
As long as we're together, boy
I'm sittin' on top of the world
Wanna feel this way forever, boy
I'm sittin' on top of the world
Now, as long as we're together, boy
I'm sittin' on top of the world
Said, I'm sittin' on top, sittin' on top of the world
My baby loves me 'cause my baby's so good to me
I know he needs me 'cause baby's so good to me
No, I never been happy, baby

LeAnn Rimes

Margaret LeAnn Rimes Cibrian (August 28, 1982) is a country singer who uses the stage name LeAnn Rimes. Born in Jackson, Mississippi she started performing at age 7 and had become a country star by age 13. Known for her vocals, many say she sounds a lot like Patsy Cline.

Rimes is a two-time Grammy winner and remains active in music. She’s gone through some troubles in the past few years, perhaps the result of such a young start in the business of music.
