Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Someone stop the world, yeah
Seems like the moment has come and I'm gonna get you, girl
The shadows are forming across your parts, the vision looks absurd, yeah, oh
No one around to interrupt the feelings you stir, babe, oh
[Chorus]
Imagine if it was, if this was you
If this wasn't so perfectly designed
To be here all night
Let the world rage outside
'Cause when I'm here with you
The world stops for me
The world stops for me
[Verse 2]
And then extraordinary, ordinary things
Things I can't explain with subtext
The world stops for me
And, girl, you know just what I mean
I, I need you, girl
Sing me a song, sing it soft, sing it long
Girl, stop my world
[Chorus]
Oh, imagine if it was, if this was you
If this wasn't so perfectly designed
To be here all night
Let the world rage outside
'Cause when I'm here with you
The world stops for me
The world stops for me
[Bridge]
Someone stop the world, yeah
Stop it, stop it, stop it, whoa, ooh
Someone, someone stop the world
Stop the world, yeah
[Outro]
We about to stop the world tonight
We're about to love, we ain't got no worries, no battles
I'm gon' be with my girl tonight
We about to stop the world, stop the world
Stop the world, uh, uh (We about to stop the world tonight)
(We're about to love, we ain't got no worries, no battles, hey) Yeah
You are my own, yeah (We about to stop the world tonight)
Make yourself at home, ooh (I'm gon' be with my girl tonight)
And lay here all night long, yeah (We about to stop the world tonight)
Oh, yeah
