"When The World Spins Too Fast"
by Joseph McCombs
When the world spins too fast
Shake it all off your tail, my pretty one
You and I were meant to last
We'll see the sun. We'll see beyond the sun.
Ooh, it's a terrible dream
When you think you're not where you're supposed to be
Don't take it all too hard
Cause you know it don't matter where you are
We're gonna find our way home
And shake away the dust of loose belongings
Gonna find our way home
And in our measures there is something to remember
When it's all coming down
Brush the world from your hair, my friend
You know that it will come around
We will find beginnings in our end.
Ooh, this impetuous smile
Comes out when I think about you and me
You're always in my heart
And you know it don't matter where you are
We're gonna find our way home
We've got the autos and we've got the aircrafts
Gonna find our way home
And share all the treasures that we find when we're together
When the world spins too fast
Shake it all off your tail, my pretty one
You and I were meant to last
We'll see the sun. We'll see beyond the sun.
Yeah, this world likes to crack you up,
Likes to crack you down, likes to put you under,
But you know our journey is
To rise above and beyond these things.
So wave the flags, light the flares,
Start the singing, roll like thunder!
We're gonna find our way home
We've got the autos and we've got the aircrafts
Gonna find our way home
And share all the treasures that we find when we're together
When it's all coming down
Brush the world from your hair, my friend
You know that it will come around
We will find beginnings in our end.
When the world spins too fast
Shake it all off your tail, my pretty one
You and I were meant to last
We'll see the sun. We'll see beyond the sun.
