Come with me
And we shall run across the sky
And illuminate the night

O-h-h-h, I will try and guide you
To better times and brighter days
Don't be afraid...

Come up the ladder to the roof
Where we can see heaven much better
Come up the ladder to the roof
Where we can be (where we can be) mmm...
(where we can be)...closer to heaven
(To heaven-stay)

Stay with me
And we shall let expression
("sing")

Can't you hear 'em ring
Ooh
(Memories of yesterday)
Yesterday's broken dreams
Dont you know, they'll all fade away
If you'll come...

Up the ladder to the roof
Where we can see heaven much better
Come up the ladder to the roof
Where we can be
[Mary:] (where we can be)
[Cindy:] (where we can be)
Aahh... closer to heaven

We'll laugh and I tell you the story of love-how it is-and the
Happiness in it baby
We'll combine our thoughts
And together we'll travel the roads to the fountain of lovliness
I will never ever ever leave you leave you alone to wonder
As we go on our love it will grow much stronger and stronger
Don't you wanna go...
Up the ladder to the roof
Where we can see heaven much better
Up the ladder where we can be closer to heaven

Aah
Up the...
(up the)

Ooh hoo
Up the
(up the)

Ooh come on and walk
Come on and talk
Come on and sing about love and understanding
