stop the world lyrics

You need someone to hold you
You need somethin' that you ain't been gettin'
Yeah I could be the one
To tell you what to do but it don't mean nothin'
And you're holdin' on forever
But that somethin' just ain't true
I'm just like you

And I know it's what I'd do
Here I go
'Cause I could stop the world 'cause I love you
I could stop the world and I don't want to
I could stop the world and I won't
'Cause it ain't enough

You had another bad day
You let me know that you just can't take it
I've given up on you
You live in truth and I know I can't fake it
'Cause the stars you see
Are on a dirty sidewalk
And they ain't for wishin' new
If they don't come true

And I know it's what I'd do
Here I go
'Cause I could stop the world 'cause I love you
I could stop the world and I don't want to
I could stop the world and I won't
'Cause it ain't enough

I'm not too young for the world
I'm not too young for the world
And I can't change for the world
(I don't need to stop the world)
'Cause I don't care for the world
I'm not too young for the world
(I don't need to stop the world)
And I don't care for the world
It don't make sense the world
