The Roches
"In the World"

in the world
is a town
small and proud

there i live
and there i ll die
head in a cloud

i had dreams long ago
of the love i would surely know
but it didn t turn out like that

in the world
is a lie
flying high

i thought you were mine
but you were
never mine

i had dreams long ago
of the world i would surely know
but it didn't turn out like that
in the world

in the world
is a hill
filled with trees

from my door
i can see
life is a breeze
