Goodnight Old World lyrics
Sometimes I feel like I'm drowning in teardrops
My eyes are so tired of the trouble I've seen
Then you fell from the heavens right into this sad place
Remembering God for a while in your dreams
And you look to me now and I greet the new day
With the eyes of a child and the wonder you bring
So goodnight old world, we'll see you tomorrow
We rise with the sun, fall with the sparrow
But here is this child to soften the sorrow
Goodnight old world, old world goodnight
You fell from the heavens right into this sad place
Remembering God for a while in your dreams
And you look to me now and I greet the new day
With the eyes of a child and the wonder you bring
So goodnight old world, see you tomorrow
We rise with the sun, fall with the sparrow
But here is this child to soften the sorrow
Goodnight old world, old world goodnight
Goodnight old world, old world goodnight
