Sweetheart, I was trapped in transit

My lost ride

When your wild eye wandered here lady

Go out by the sweetheart tree

But don't let go

It's how my friend history here made me

What's the weight of the world worth to ya, kid

Go write down what you see

And see how far it can go

What's the weight of the world worth to your side

Here is where you got lost

And here is how you got by

And here's the mutiny I promised you

And here's the party it turned into

Heartbeat, you abandoned searches

Your lost ride

You're in my lost country now lady

Sweethearts in the crosstown wild

You don't let go

To the new live history goes with me

What's the weight of the world worth to ya, kid

Go write down what you see

And see how far it can go

What's the weight of the world worth to your side

Here is where you got lost

And here is how you got by

And here's the mutiny I promised you

And here's the party it turned into

And here's the mutiny I promised you

And here's the moment it turned into (x4)

Sweetheats on the green

Flung pistols in high tide

Move like my friend history here told me (?)

Clear-skied when the clear eye opened

My new moon to the new land

Won't you come with me

What's the weight of the world worth to ya, kid

Go write down what you see

And see how far it can go

What's the weight of the world worth to your side

Here is where you got lost

And here is how you got by

And here's the mutiny I promised you

And here's the party it turned into

And here's the mutiny I promised you

And here's the moment it turned into
