Wild World lyrics

Joan Osborne See albums and popular songs

How will we stay on the sidewalk

When there is no gravity

Piece of paper floating upward

But no one stops to see

And you think that I'm the right one

'Cause I know just what to say

And you ask me to convince you

That you won't blow away

In this wild wild world

Wild, wild world

By the river

Well we made them to be broken

Sorry if they let you down

Sorry if the ones you know

Are vanishing all over town

And I need someone to hold me

And I ask you to be fair

And you'd like to give me something

But we both know there ain't a lot

Ain't a lot to spare

In this wild, wild world

Wild, wild world

Oh are you listening

To make sure I'm still here?

Oh did you know

That the river burns like gasoline

And they can't turn on the rain machine

And they tell me there is no more space

Won't you turn around

'Cause I hate it when I cannot see your face

In this wild, wild world

In this wild, wild world

Wild, wild world

By the river
