The World Songtext / Lyric

THE WORLD

Each broken dream falls asleep
To the sound of something sweet
Strange summer days fade away
To the sound of pouring rain
Close your eyes and think of England
Hold him in your arms and say

What about the world I gave you
The world, I gave you the world
What about the man who sold you
The man who sold you the world

Oh let it be
Let them go to the long and winding road
Each yellow page won't replace
Or wipe the memories from your face
Kill the TV play the CD
Open up your arms and say

What about the world I gave you
The world, I gave you the world
You never did belong to no-one
And no one owes you the world

Lay back and fake it's today
Let the future make you wait

Close your eyes and think of England
Hold him in your arms and say

What about the world I gave you
The world, I gave you the world
What about the man who sold you
The man who sold you the world

I gave you the world
I gave you the world
What about the world

What about the man who sold you
The man who sold you the world

The world I gave you, the world I gave you
