"Weight Of The World" lyrics

"Weight Of The World"

I used to carry the weight of the world
On my back
I never trusted my friends or my girl
Can you imagine that?
I used to shuffle my feet
When I walked I hung my head down low
Kept to myself all my private thoughts
But when I met you girl

I dropped the weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world (World)
I dropped the weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world (World)

I knew some people used to dance all night
But not me
I never knew if it was wrong or right
To be so free
I used to close my eyes
And try to hide from the light of love
Spent all my time with the darkness inside
But when I met you girl

I dropped the weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world (World)
I dropped the weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world (World)

I was alone for all of my life
I was alone for all of my life
I was alone for all of my life
I was alone for all of my life
Until you came my way
(World, world, world, world)

I dropped the weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world
I dropped the weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world (World)
Weight of the world (World)
I dropped the weight of the world
Weight of the world (World)

(World, world, world, world)
