This World

Steve Hackett

Compositor: Kim Poor / Steve Hackett

I watched you walk out
Into the world
More like a woman
And less like a girl
All the words
In my ear
Everything you said
Everywhere you tread

They say every day
Brings about a change
Childhood's over
But some things remain
Like the way you cried in bed
Never lose your smile
Never lose your head

Please don't take this world from me
Why can't we love
Why can't we give
