World We Used To Know

Wild, wild, wild horses tell me, where did they all go?

They used to run, used to run, used to run right here

And all I see is an empty road

Wild, wild, wild roses tell me, where did they all go?

When I was young, I was young, they would spread like fire

And now, the roots don't know where to grow

Did it come overnight or did it come on slow?

It's out of our hands and it's out of control

I don't think that this is the world we used to know

Is the world we used to know

Wide, wide, wide oceans tell me, where do you lead?

When the sun and the sky come to meet at night

I wonder, would you carry me?

Why won't you tell me if I'm on my own?

You used to be, used to be, used to be right here

And now, I don't know where to go

Did it come overnight or did it come on slow?

It's out of our hands and it's out of control

I don't think that this is the world we used to know

Is the world we used to know

I could show you places that we had

In the world we used to know

Take me home and show me love can last

There's a world we used to know

Did it come overnight or did it come on slow?

It's out of our hands and it's out of control

I don't think that this is the world we used to know

Is the world we used to know
