Lyrics

[Intro]
Ah-ah
[Verse 1]
Because the world is round
It turns me on
Because the world is round
Ah-ah
[Verse 2]
Because the wind is high
It blows my mind
Because the wind is high
Ah-ah
[Bridge]
Love is old, love is new
Love is all, love is you
[Verse 3]
Because the sky is blue
It makes me cry
Because the sky is blue
[Outro]
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah
Written by: John Lennon, Paul McCartney
