My strings are broken and my heart is out of tune
I wanted quiet but all I see is you
I don't know anything
I stumbled forward and you let me walk away
We both know I'll be running back to you someday
I don't know anything
The earth is spinning but my feet are standing still
And the wind is biting but I'm fighting off the chill
I don't know anything
So let's pretend for just one minute
The world, the world, the world, the world
The world is mine but you're not there
The world, the world, the world, the world
The world is mine but you're not there
They say time's a healer but my watch can't tell the time
The left hand's stuck six months ago and I can't find the right
I don't know anything
The pen is stronger than any sharpened sword
But everything I write to you makes me feel like a fool
I don't know anything
The earth is spinning but my feet are standing still
And the wind is biting but I'm fighting off the chill
I don't know anything
So let's pretend for just one minute
The world, the world, the world, the world
The world is mine but you're not there
The world, the world, the world, the world
The world is mine but you're not there
I feel like I can do anything
Why don't you understand
I feel like I can do anything
Why don't you understand
Why don't you see what I could be
Why don't you see what I could be
Why don't you see what I could be
Why don't you see what I could be
So let's pretend for just one minute
The world, the world, the world, the world
The world is mine but you're not there
The world, the world, the world, the world
The world is mine but you're not there
Why can't you see
I'd trade in the world for you
