lyrics

I can still remember how it used to be
when we were younger and life just went so easily.
Never cared of anything or what the future could bring.
Locked up in the oak we learned to sing.

And soon I'll see you run away
into the world they say is where we all belong.
I hope you listen to this song
we're gonna play it on and on.

When the world came watching
the stork just want away.
There were oh so many things I wanted him to say.
And when the world came watching
the stork just went away.
And I am just waiting for that day.

When the world came watching

Moving to a place so far beyond the sun.
We will maybe follow if we can.
Now we've realized you were the the only one.
I guess I'll always remember how you ran.

The soul is running
the shell is standing here.
We will always loose things we hold dear.
Maybe we can stay but will you come back?
And help us to put our visions down the track.

When the world came watching
the stork just want away.
There were oh so many things I wanted him to say.
And when the world came watching
the stork just went away.
And I am just waiting for that day.

If I had a million.
I would throw it in a wishing well.
You are the world of worlds why don't you stay with us and play.
And play.
Please sing with us our world.

My life is falling down.
My home has gone away.
The oak in tears will drown
what more is there to say?
Alone I'm standing tall
My back is straight but why?
I am waiting for you to fall
but inside I wanna cry, cry for you.

I'm Crying for you.
