AMERICA - WHOLE WIDE WORLD lyrics

rate me

Written by Dewey Bunnell, ©1994

Found on Hourglass.

Now the leaves are blowin'

Down the avenue

And the bells are ringing

The love that I found in you

All around the city

Before the winter snow

The sidewalks are so busy

But I wouldn't even know

'Cause all the people in the whole wide world (whole wide world)

Don't mean nothin' if you ain't got your girl (got your girl)

All the people seem so far away

'Cause I only want you to stay

With me, with me

The summer was unending

I had to see it through

No use in my pretending

I love everything you do

All the people in the whole wide world (whole wide world)

Don't mean nothin' if you ain't got your girl (got your girl)

All the people seem so far away

'Cause I only want you to stay

With me, with me

Dragonflies dipped on the swimming pool

By July I had to keep my cool

(You were shining) You were shining like a living jewel

Inside I knew

Time stood still with you

And all the people in the whole wide world (whole wide world)

Don't mean nothin' if you ain't got your girl (got your girl)

All the people seem so far away

'Cause I only want you to stay

With me, with me

With me, with me

With me, with me ...
