Watch the World Go By

i bought a ticket
so i'm taking a ride
my seat is so cold
or maybe that's just my insides

the dreamer in me
is seeing your face in the trees
right by the little farmhouse just off the tracks
where you and i are just sitting back

i hear you say
"let's throw our cares away"

let's watch the world go by
watch the world go by
just you and me, and the gentle breeze,
watching the world go by

i close my eyes
sit back and romanticize
what life would be like
if we sealed our great divide

i'm reaching for you
across the sea of despair
the hands on the clock are not going to stop
until we mend this tear

i hear you say
"let's throw our cares away"

let's watch the world go by
watch the world go by
just you and me, and the gentle breeze
watching the the world go by

watch the world go by
watch the world go by
just you and me, and the gentle breeze
watching the the world go by

soon it will be
just us three
you and me
and the gentle breeze
