Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes the world has a load of questions
Seems like the world knows nothing at all
The world is near, but it's out of reach
Some people touch it, but they can't hold on
[Chorus]
She is moving to describe the world (Night must fall! Darker! Darker!)
She has messages for everyone (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
She is moving by remote control (Night must fall! Darker! Darker!)
Hands that guide her are invisible (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
[Verse 2]
The world has a way of looking at people
Sometimes we feel that the world is wrong
She loves the world, and all the people in it
She shakes 'em up when she start to walk
[Chorus]
She is only partly human being (She wanna define, so say so, so say so)
She defines the possibilities (Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so)
Holding on for an eternity (She wanna define, so say so, so say so)
Gone and ending without finishing (Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so)
[Verse 3]
The world moves on a woman's hips
The world moves and it swivels and bops
The world moves on a woman's hips
The world moves and it bounces and hops
[Refrain]
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna hold it, move it, hold it, move it, hold it, move it, hold it, move it
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
[Chorus]
She is moving to describe the world (Night must fall! Darker! Darker!)
She has messages for everyone (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
She is moving by remote control (Night must fall! Darker! Darker!)
Hands that guide her are invisible (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
[Verse 4]
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
[Verse 5]
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna hold it, move it, hold it, move it, hold it, move it, hold it, move it
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
[Verse 6]
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
Divine to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so (She has got to move the world, got to move the world, got to move the world)
