Top Of The Bottom (Of The World)

TOP OF THE BOTTOM (OF THE WORLD) - Written by Carroll Bryant 

When I had you

I had everything that I wanted

I had nothing to lose except everything

I was a fool

I threw away anything that didn’t excite me

In my blind haste

I threw you away

Now here I am

Standing on the top of the bottom of the world

This was the plan

That with open eyes I didn’t see coming

Now here I am

Sleeping all alone without your sweet love

Now where it all stands

I’m standing on the top of the bottom of the world, again

When I had you

I had the universe in the firm of my grip

I had nothing to gain except redemption

I was a fool

To let it all go without exception

In the wake of my pride

I threw you away

Now here I am

Standing on the top of the bottom of the world

This was the plan

That with open eyes I didn’t see coming

Now here I am

Sleeping all alone without your sweet love

Now where it all stands

I’m standing on the top of the bottom of the world, again

Just one more chance I’m thinking

I could turn my life around

There’s too much drama in the mood of my drinking

You were the solid ground

And if I could talk to you again

I would say to let’s be friends

Let’s just give it one more try and then

You can watch me throw it all away again

When I had you

I had everything that I wanted

I had nothing to lose except everything

I was a fool

I threw away anything that didn’t excite me

In my blind haste

I threw you away

Now here I am

Standing on the top of the bottom of the world

This was the plan

That with open eyes I didn’t see coming

Now here I am

Sleeping all alone without your sweet love

Now where it all stands

I’m standing on the top of the bottom of the world, again

And on top of all that, I’m standing here alone without you girl

Standing on the top of the bottom of the world

Standing on the top of the bottom of the world, again
