Stop the World

[Verse 1]

You need someone to hold you

You need something that you ain't been getting

Yeah, I could be the one

To tell you what to do, but it don't mean nothing

And you're holding on forever

But that something just ain't true

I'm just like you

[Pre-Chorus]

And I know, It's what I'd do

Here I go

[Chorus]

Because I couldn't stop the world because I loved you

I couldn't stop the world and I don't want to

I couldn't stop the world and I won't

Because it ain't enough

[Verse 2]

You had another bad day

You let me know that you just can't take it

I've given up on you

You live in truth and I know I can't fake it

Because the stars you see on dirty sidewalks

And they ain't for wishing, ooh

They don't come true

[Pre-Chorus]

And I know, it's what I'd do

Here I go

[Chorus]

Because I couldn't stop the world because I loved you

I couldn't stop the world and I don't want to

I couldn't stop the world and I won't

Because it ain't enough

[Outro]

Am I too young for the world?

I'm not too young for the world

And I can't change for the world

(I don't need to stop the world)

Because I don't care for the world

(I'm too young, I'm too young)

I don't make sense to the world

(I don't need to stop the world)

(I'm too young, I'm too young)

[Repeat until fade]
