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 

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
