Evermore - Girl With The World On Her Shoulders lyrics

rate me

<BR>

Criminals, doctors, cynics and believers.<br>

Preachers, teachers, murderers and bankers.<br>

The faithless and the Pope, <br>

the weight of our hope <br>

on the girl with the world on her shoulders.<br>

<br>

The actor in the wings, to the mocking bird that sings. <br>

From the bottom of the sea, to the penthouse suite.<br>

As I turn to walk away, I overheard her say,<br>

"We're all in here together".<br>

<br>

Love, hate, coincidence, fate.<br>

We trust, we lie, we live and we die.<br>

No matter who you are just cannot escape.<br>

That we're all in here together.<br>

<br>

Love, hate, coincidence, fate.<br>

We trust, we lie, we live and we die.<br>

I overheard her say, <br>

"you just cannot escape,<br>

we're all in here together."<br>

<br>

The ships on the harbour, the city's so tall,<br>

all that rise will eventually fall.<br>

There's nothing you can do,<br>

no nothing at all, for the girl<br>

with the world on her shoulders.<br>

<br>

Making our way through space and time,<br>

warmed by the sun, making love to the moon.<br>

We're spinning each day <br>

and we make some mistakes.<br>

but we're all in here together.<br>

<BR><BR>
