The World Has Its Shine (But I Would Drop It On A Dime) lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm not one for love songs
The way I'm living makes you feel like giving up
But you don't
And I want everything for you
But disappointment
Because you've been left behind
And the world has its shine
I would drop it on a dime for you

[Pre-Chorus]
(Hey oh!)
And whatever it takes
(Hey oh!)
I'm going to make my way home
(Hey oh!)
We can turn our backs on the past
And start over

[Chorus]
Not long ago
I gave up hope
But you came along
You gave me something I could hold on to
Woah-oh
And I want you
Oh, woah
More than you could ever know
[Verse 2]
Before I met you
I used to dream you up
And make you up in my mind (up in my mind)
Woah-oh
And all I ever wanted
Was to be understood
You've been the only one who could
I could never turn my back on you

[Pre-Chorus]
(Hey oh!)
And whatever it takes
(Hey oh!)
I'm going to make my way home
(Hey oh!)
We can turn our backs on the past
And start over

[Chorus]
Not long ago
I gave up hope
But you came along
You gave me something I could hold on to
Woah-oh
And I want you
Oh, woah
More than you could ever know
[Bridge]
(More than you could ever know)
More than you could ever know
It's you

Not long ago
I gave up hope
But you came along
Gave me something I could hold on to
Woah-oh

[Chorus]
Not long ago
I gave up hope
But you came along
You gave me something I could hold on to
Woah-oh
And I want you
Oh, woah
More than you could ever know
