*Top Of The World 词 John Bettis 曲 Richard Carpenter Such a feeling's coming over me There is wondering most everything I see Not a cloud in the sky Got the sun in my eyes And ! won't be surprised if it's a dream Everything I want the world to be Is now coming true especially for me And the reason is clear It's because you are here You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world Something in the wind has learned my name And it's telling me that things are not the same In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze There's a pleasing sense of happiness for me There is only one wish on my mind When this day is through I hope that I will find That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me All I need will be mine if you are here *解 由John Bettis及Richard Carpenter共同合作完成。歌曲本身轻快且跳动的旋律，使新专 辑出版後听众们对"Top of the World"这首歌的反应热烈。 使得理查开始考虑要把它出成单曲。不过他对原先的录音并不是很满意，打算重新来过才 正式推出，而还没有等到新的录音完工，乡村女歌手Lynn Anderson/琳安德森已经抢先一 步，推出了翻唱的版本，并且直冲乡村排行的榜首。这也可以说是帮了他们一个大忙，等 到他们自己的版本推出，简直不费吹灰之力就夺得冠军，成了木匠兄妹本身作品的第一支 冠军曲。 --
