You've got the weight of the world
On your shoulders tonight
But somewhere there's a light
It's just the way that you feelIn the eyes of the world
So much colder tonight
It's feeding on your pride
It's just the way that you feelDon't go
Don't you know I'm on your side?
Baby, don't go
Don't go, don't go, don't goIf the weight of the world
Is too much for you now
You've got to turn it 'round somehow
Change the way that you feelIf you wait for the world
To give what you need
It's gonna bring you to your knees
AgainSo baby, don't go
Don't you know I'm on your side?
Don't let yourself go
Don't go, don't go, don't goThere has to be another way
No, don't go
You've got to turn around and stayThe weight of the world
On your shoulders tonight
But somewhere there's a light
It's just the way that you feelIn the eyes of the world
So much colder tonight
It's feeding on your pride
It's just the way that you feelBaby, don't go
Don't you see I'm on your side?
Don't let yourself go
Don't go, don't go, don't goDon't you wait until your strength is gone
I'll give you something worth holding on to
Not the weight, the weight of the worldDon't believe in your foolish pride
Take a look at how you feel inside
And give it up
Oh, the weight of the world, ooh, oohWeight of the world
Weight of the world
It's gonna be alright
Weight of the world
Weight of the world
Hey
Weight of the worldYou're saying how your friends are gone
Baby, are they holding on
To the weight, oh, the weight of the world?
