i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
yeah well i remember you running away
you were gone in a minute with nothing to say
i don't get it why were you afraid
when you could've had it all you threw it away
don't know what you heard about me
learned about me
to make you wanna go off in this world without me
well don't you worry about me
i weather through the storm
though this moment is cloudy
i'll go and take my place with the underrated
broken hearted even though it got me motivated
i ain't stopping till i know we can be elevated
past the voices saying that we can never make it
i got the world on a string
but without you in it well it don't mean a thing
i'm feeling like a ghost like my heart wants to scream
but tell me it ain't real that we lost in the dream
i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing i
had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
yeah yeah i look up at the stars in the sky
wonder if you're looking up the same time as i
wonder if there's something i could say
that would bring you back to me
cause it don't mean a thing
if you ain't around me
my heart profoundly stops what it's doing
till your love surround me
what i gotta do to make you think about me
i wrote you this love letter and i speak it proudly
and once i send it out i can't unsaid
gotta put myself out that's the first step
but what if you don't listen to it even worse yet
you don't wanna hear a word in my cursed
well tell me what i do then tell me where am i going
tell me where to begin yeah
i used to have it all now i don't have a cent
and i hate not knowing if i see you again
i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing
i had the world on a string
now it don't really mean a thing
mean a thing
i had the world on a string now it don't really mean
a thing mean a thing
