The pages of the past are filled
With names of men and mountains they've climbed
It's the nature of a man to go and seek
The thrill he builds within his mind

But I don't have to climb the highest mountain
To feel the greatest thrill in all eternity
I just climb one flight of stairs and ring the doorbell
And the whole world comes to me

While others all around me
Lay their tracks of tangled patterns just to find
That the new love they've discovered
Is so different than the ones they left behind

I find a brand new advanture every evening
And keep that same old path beneath my feet
I just climb one flight of stairs and ring the doorbell
And the whole world comes to me

Why should I go runnin' to the corners of the earth
Seekin' out the pleasures of its charms
Why should I be wonderin' what the world holds for me
When I hold the world in my arms

No I don't have to climb the highest mountain
To feel the greatest thrill in all eternity
I just climb one flight of stairs and ring the doorbell
And the whole world comes to me

I just climb one flight of stairs and ring the doorbell
And the whole world comes to me
