Sweet Old World

See what you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world
What you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world

The breath from your own lips
The touch of fingertips
A sweet and tender kiss

The sound of a midnight train
Wearing someone's ring
Someone calling your name

Somebody so warm cradled in your arms
Didn't you think you were worth anything?

See what you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world
What you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world

Millions of us in love
Promises made good
Your own flesh and blood

Looking for some truth
Dancing with no shoes
The beat, the rhythm, the blues

The pounding of your heart's drum
Together with another one
Didn't you think anyone loved you?

See what you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world
What you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world

See what you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world
What you lost when you left this world
This sweet old world
