Watch the World

I watched the smoke as it grew darker

And blew up through the roof

I watched the fed, saw them panic

As the fire grew

I saw Virginia get rid of Langley

And its secrets too

I held your hand, and sat there knowing

That we'd make it through

I saw this man dispose of hunger

And soap operas too

I saw this field that grew perfection

Full of things you do

I saw this box get rid of heartache

And cure cancer too

When I awoke, I sat there hoping

This is what we'll do

If we can, we will leave a letter

And this song for you

And we'll write once a day

And float it through the sea to you

We'll regret all those things we thought of

But didn't ever do

If we can, we will leave a letter

And this song for you

And we'll write once a day

And float it through the sea to you

We'll regret all those things we thought of

But didn't ever do

When the sky seems to clear

Who will then be left

But a few, me and you
