The World Turns On a Dime - Clare Burson

The World Turns On a Dime Lyrics

at a small caf
in a big city
sits a man
with his life in his hands
watch the nod of his head
his eyes heavy liddedcause
the world turns
the world it turns
the world turns on a dimethere's a girl
with a smile
on a boat
with her brother
sailing for a visit of a year
she says goodbye to her home
and all things familiarcause
the world turns
the world it turns
the world turns on a dimetake the train

back and forth
over the border
with suitcases piled overhead
will the officer scowl
and stop before passing
will he stop before passingthe world turns
the world it turns
the world turns on a dime
the world turns on a dime
