I was born in the Southern Land, yeah, a million miles from America

And whatever we wanted was just a matter of choosing

And I was raised in the Great White Way

Just like all those kids in America

And the T.V. taught us to win with no thought of losing - then I woke up


This is the real world, the real town without pity

And this is the real world, in the shadow of the city

This is the real wheel, you don't get too many spins

This is the real deal, not everybody wins


Just another soul lost in America, I was so frustrated and I got so lonely

It almost took a miracle to open up my eyes


Chorus:

World start turning - turn into the wind

World start turning - some things were never meant to be

I've been standing on the beach, crying to the raging sea

I've been falling, falling

Heart start beating - turn into the wind

Heart start beating - some things were never meant to be

Made a promise to myself I'll never get that low again


We were taught if a man believes in what he wants in America

It's only a matter of time, just a matter of seasons

But I walk thru the houses of the dreams that died

I see the ones still trapped there, the ones that tried

But spent the rest of their lives wondering why

And searching for reasons - and they never wake up


This is the real world, you've got to know just when to bend

Here in the world, precious little matters in the end

This is the real world, the real town without pity

And this is the real world, in the shadow of the city


Just another soul lost in America, I was so frustrated and I got so lonely

It almost took a miracle to open up my eyes


chorus


Can't stop the world, can't stop the world


(Solo)


Never could settle for where I was, too many places I was trying to be

The times I succeeded and the times I failed



You know that no one will remember but me


World start turning, world start turning

I've been standing on the beach, crying to the raging sea

I've been falling, falling


chorus


I've been falling, falling


World start turning, world start turning

World start turning, world start turning

(repeats out)
