A letra:
World
is turnin'
I hope it don't turn away
The world is turnin'
I
hope it don't turn away
All my pictures are
fallin'
From the wall where I placed them yesterday
World is
turnin'
I hope it don't turn away
I need a crowd of
people, but I can't face them day to day
I need a crowd of people,
but I can't face them day to day
Though my problems are
meaningless, that don't make them go away
I need a crowd of
people, but I can't face them day to day
I went to the radio
interview, but I ended up alone at the microphone
I went to the
radio interview, but I ended up alone at the microphone
Now I'm
livin' out here on the beach, but those seagulls are still out of
reach
Went to the radio interview, but I ended up alone at the
microphone
Get out of town, think
I'll get out of town
Get out of town, think I'll get out of town
I
head for the sticks with my bus and friends
I follow the road,
though I don't know where it ends
Get out of town, get out of
town, think I'll get out of town
'Cause the world is
turnin'
And I don't want to see it turn away
