Her: Let me see the world with clouds
Take me to the world
Out where I can push through crowds
Take me to the world
A world that smiles With streets instead of aisles
Where I can walk for miles with you
Take me to the world thatâs real
Show me how itâs done
Teach me how to laugh, to feel
Move me to the sun
Just hold my hand whenever we arrive
Take me to a world where I can be alive Him: The world is better here. I know Iâve seen them both.
Let me see the world that smiles Him: A poet doesnât count for much out there
Take me to the world Him: Weâd be cold and hungry in the winter
Somewhere I can walk for miles Him: A shabby room with cracked plaster
Take me to the world Him: You couldnât get a job
With all around things growing in the ground Him: Weâd end up hating each other. Weâd have fights. Youâd cry.
Where birds that make a sound are birds
Let me see the world thatâs real Him: I have seen the world
Show me how itâs done Him: And itâs mean and ugly
Teach me how to laugh, to feel Him: We could laugh together
Move me to the sun Him: Stay here with me
Just hold my hand whenever we arrive Him: Stay here. I love you. But weâre happy here
Let it be a world with you Him: Stay with me
Any other world with you
Take me to a world where I can be alive
Do you want the world? Well then, you shall have the world
Ask me for the world again
You shall have the world
A world of skies
Thatâs bursting with surprise
To open up your eyes for joy
We shall see the world come true
We shall have the world
I wonât be afraid with you
We shall have the world
Youâll hold my hand and know youâre not alone
You shall have the world to keep
Such a lovely world youâll weep
We shall have the world forever for our own
