Lyrics
Lying in the street
I see a woman looking up at me
Her eyes are open
She understands her world
the things she has to see
She doesn't ask me for anything
My heart is lying in the street
next to her
Where did her spirit go
When did she lose her will
to carry on
I'm gonna save the world
All by myself
repeat
There's a woman in a corner
her eyes are down
She's fighting off the fear
She's got a child under both her arms
Another lonely night surrounds her.
I'm gonna save the world
All by myself
repeat
When its all too real
I'm gonna put my fingers on it and stop the world
And show what it is to feel.
