Way up in the mountains, four thousand feet high There's a trail through the trees to a cliff where Carolina meets the sky Oh, and there's a view I just can't describe No, I'm not there yet, just a few more steps, baby wait Okay, you can open your eyes This is it, this is now, this is what I've been talking about Looking out, can't you see forever? Take my hand, just take it in This is a moment we won't forget On top of the world, here, together If there ever was a time for a perfect kiss, this is it Girl I know that you've been waiting and talking to your friends Wondering if and wondering where and wondering when Well I've been waiting too, holding on to this ring For the right words to say, for the right time and place, for me to get on one knee This is it, this is now, this is what I've been talking about Looking out, can't you see forever? Take my hand, just take it in This is a moment we won't forget On top of the world here together If there ever was a time for a perfect kiss, well this is it This is it Now you're walking down the aisle And I can't help but smile This is it, this is now, it's what I've been talking about Looking out, I can see forever So take my hand, just take it in This is a moment we won't forget On top of the world, here, together Surrounded by our family and our friends If there ever was a time for a perfect kiss This is it Yeah, This is it
