…these things with no fears of tomorrow
I'd fight the world before I'd ever let go go
I don't care what anybody thinks of me
(I know…
…the sun explodes or the moon turns to ashes)
And I'd fight the world before I'd ever let go go
(I'd stand and fight the world before I'd let…
…you go)
Oh I'd fight the world before I'd ever let go go
Yes I'd fight the world before I'd ever let go go…

I'd do these things with no fear of tomorrow
I'd fight the world before I'd ever let you go.
--- Instrumental ---
I want you…
…and I need you that's all I know
And I'd fight the world before I'd ever let you go.
I'd gladly beg, I'd steal or I'd borrow
I'd turn…
…my back on everyone I know
I'd do these things with no fear of tomorrow
Ask anything but tell me you won't go.
Yes, I'd fight the world before I'd ever let you go...

…I'd give the world to be back loving you
So long I've hid what should be in the open
When I'd pretend my…
…love for you was through
But all the time the hurt within kept growing
And I'd give the world to be back loving you
The days go by and I always end up…
…dreaming
And going back to the love that we once knew
It may be wrong but I'm letting go this feeling
Cause I'd give the world…

…by
And leave me dancin' with myself.
So let's sink another drink
Cause it'll give me time to think
If I had the chance I'd ask the world…
…time to think
If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance
And I'll be dancin' with myself
Oh oh, Dancing a-with myself,
Oh, oh…
…dancing with myself
If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance
If I had the chance I'd ask the world to dance
If I had…

…with myself
So let's sink another drink
'Cause it'll give me time to think
If I had the chance
I'd ask the world…
…by
Leave me dancing with myself
So let's sink another drink
'Cause it'll give me time to think
If I had the chance
I'd ask the world…
…to dance
And I'll be dancing with myself
Oh dancing with myself
Oh dancing with myself
If I had the chance
I'd ask the world…

…risk my dignity if only to give love a chance
If you were mine, I'd have the world
I'd have the world if you were mine…
…a chance
If you were mine, I'd have the world
I'd have the world if you were mine
If you were mine, I'd have the world
I'd have the world…
…if you were mine
Ohh, if you were mine.
If you were mine, I'd have the world
I'd have the world if you were mine
If you were…

…alone
And I know you think you can run
You're scared to believe you're the one
But I just can't let you go
[Chorus]
I'd let the world…
…burn
Let the world burn for you
This is how it always had to end
If I can't have you then no one can
I'd let it burn
I'd let the world…
…to believe you're the one
But I just can't let you go
[Chorus]
I'd let the world burn
Let the world burn…
