In the World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
in the world
is a town
small and proud
there i live
and there i ll die
head in a cloud
i had dreams long ago
of the love i would surely know
but it didn t turn out like that
in the world
is a lie
flying high
i thought you were mine
but you were
never mine
i had dreams long ago
of the world i would surely know
but it didn't turn out like that
in the world
in the world
is a hill
filled with trees
from my door
i can see
life is a breeze
