WILD WORLD

CAT STEVENS

 

Now that I’ve lost everything to you

You say you wanna start something new

And it’s breakin’ my heart you’re leavin’, baby, I’m grievin

But if you wanna leave, take good care

Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear

But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

 

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

It’s hard to get by just upon a smile

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

I’ll always remember you like a child, girl

 

You know I’ve seen a lot of what the world can do

And it’s breakin’ my heart in two

Because I never wanna see you a sad girl, don’t be a bad girl

But if you wanna leave, take good care

Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

But just remember there’s a lot of bad and beware... beware

 

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

It’s hard to get by just upon a smile

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

And I’ll always remember you like a child, girl

 

Baby, I love you

But if you wanna leave, take good care

Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

But just remember there’s a lot of bad and beware... beware

 

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

It’s hard to get by just upon a smile

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

And I’ll always remember you like a child, girl

 

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

It’s hard to get by just upon a smile

Oh, baby, baby, it’s a wild world

And I’ll always remember you like a child, girl
