TELL THE WORLD
I don’t believe that age brings wisdom, I don’t believe that time alone
Can teach the things we really need to know
For I was young and wild and foolish when first I held your hand
But yet was wise enough to never let it go.
It was you and me against the world and both of us agreed
It didn’t matter what the world might do or say
For if the world could take or leave us then we’d take or leave the world
Or tell the world come back another day
If the world could take or leave us then we’d take or leave the world
Or tell the world come back another day.
Then the girl became a woman and the boy became a man
Both quite content to go where destiny foretold
Days of music, wine and laughter in the company of good friends
Meant we never took the time for growing old.
It was you and me against the world and both of us agreed
It didn’t matter what the world might do or say.
If the world could take or leave us then we’d take or leave the world
Or tell the world come back another day
If the world could take or leave us then we’d take or leave the world
Or tell the world to simply go away.
