"The Weight Of The World" lyrics

"The Weight Of The World"

You've got the weight of the world
On your shoulders tonight
But somewhere there's a light
It's just the way that you feel

In the eyes of the world
So much colder tonight
It's feeding on your pride
It's just the way that you feel

Don't go
Can't you see I'm on your side
Baby don't go
Don't go, don't go, don't go

If the weight of the world
Is too much for you now
You've got to turn it round somehow
Change the way that you feel
If you wait for the world
To give you what you need
It's gonna bring you to your knees again

So baby don't go
Can't you see I'm on your side
Don't let yourself go
Don't go, don't go, don't go

There has to be another way
No don't go
You've got to turn around and stay

Don't you wait until your strength is gone
I'll give you something worth holding on to
Not the weight
The weight of the world

Don't believe in your foolish pride
Take a look at how you feel inside
And give it up

You're saying how your friends are gone
Baby are they holding on
To the weight
On the weight of the world
