| Tell Franie I’msorry she didn’t get to know her dad
|
| I’ll bet he’s sorry he didn’t get to know you too
|
| Tell her there’ll be people singing things that make her sad
|
| How her daddy felt alone how he was hurtin’bad
|
| I guess that won’t be too far from the truth
|
| Yeah, it’s lonely at the top
|
| Happy is one thing it’s not.
|
| I was jaded, suffocated, it got too hard to breath
|
| But never got as high as I needed to be You know life becomes worthless when they steal your dreams
|
| I just couldn’t live with what was left for me And I couldn’t run far enough from the truth, what’s the use
|
| Yeah, it’s lonely at the top
|
| Happy’s one thing it’s not
|
| Before you know you find yourself alone and looking down
|
| No one there can help you stop before you hit the ground
|
| It’s lonely at the top
|
| Oooh yeah,
|
| Tell Franie, I’m sorry I better kiss her when she cries
|
| I’m sorry I left her, never said good-bye
|
| Didn’t mean to leave you all alone but then the music died
|
| Though the song remains the same, I couldn’t live that lie
|
| You know that ain’t too far from the truth
|
| And you know that ain’t too far from the truth
|
| Yeah, it’s lonely at the top
|
| Happy’s one thing it’s not
|
| Before you know you find yourself alone and looking down
|
| No one there to help you stop before you hit the ground
|
| Yeah, it’s lonely at the top
|
| Yeah, it’s lonely at the top
|
| It’s lonely |
