Like morning will keep us
locked in our arms
roses for weepers
not easy to charm
and I am not a fool

so get on that bus now
and ride it on home
lone in the back seat
with no telephone
and I am not a fool

if you want to take the world on I will
be right there beside you
but if you want to sleep the whole day through I will
be right there beside you

outside they're waiting
the people in white
it's crying anticipating
for someone to fight
and I am not a fool

if you want to take the world on I will
be right there beside you
but if you want to sleep the whole day through I will
be right there beside you

if you want to take the world on I will
be right there beside you
if you want to take the world on now I will
be right there beside you
