Wild World Cat Stevens


Now that I've lost everything to you,
you say you want to start something new,
and it's breaking my heart you're leaving,
baby I'm grieving.

But if you wanna leave take good care,
hope you have a lot of nice things to wear,
but then a lot of nice things turn bad out there.

Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile.
Oh baby baby it's a wild world.

I'll always remember you like a child, girl.
You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do,
and it's breaking my heart in two,
cause I never want to see you sad girl,
don't be a bad girl,
but if you want to leave take good care,
hope you make a lot of nice friends out there,
but just remember there's a lot of bad and beware,
beware,

Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
and I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

Baby I love you, but if you wanna leave take good care,
hope you make a lot of nice friends out there,
but just remember there's a lot of bad,
and beware, beware,

oh baby baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile.
Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
and I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

It's something I recognize in silent conversations
something that maneuvers but doesn't interfere
something I never talk about...


the child has been weaned
the playground fights are over
sometimes it's hard to distinguish a gun from a handshake...


i like the way your brain works WITH your heart instead of against it.
does that make sense? :biggrin:

Yes it does make sense. And after a cup of coffee... :wink: Well, shoot, I hate to bang my own drum--this is probably, word for word, the best thing I've ever done... :oops: :D :D :D 8)
