The view from the top can be oh so very lonely
And you can be missing such a lot that could be yours

Why can't I stop forgetting myself?
Why am I always trying to be like somebody else
Why can't I love you?
Why bother flying high above you
I know where you are

The view from the top can be oh so very lonely
And you can be missin' such a lot that could be yours
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/cat+stevens/the+view+from+the+top_20028171.html ]
And who's going to miss me?
There'll only be myself to blame
You know I'd love to hold you tight
And love you all the night
But I don't even know ...my name

La la la da la ....

Why can't I stop forgetting myself?
Why am I always trying to be like somebody else?
Why can't I love you?
Why bother flying high above you
I know where you are

The view from the top can be oh so very lonely
And you can be missin' such a lot that could be yours
