Cross my heart, hope to survive
Hold my breath, watch our love die
The roses wilt, the curtains fall
You see the end, the end of it all

And the world keeps spinning
Life goes on
The world keeps spinning
Long after you're gone

I've been so high, swear I saw Mars
I've felt the cold in the city of stars
They hold you up, it feels like flying
And before you know, they’re throwing stones
They watch as you're dying

And the world keeps spinning
Life goes on
The world keeps spinning
Long after you're gone
The birds keep singing
Like nothin's wrong
The world keeps spinning
Long after you're gone

World keeps spinning, the world keeps spinning
The world keeps spinning, the world keeps spinning
The world keeps spinning, the world keeps spinning
The world keeps spinning, the world

The world keeps spinning
Life goes on
The world keeps spinning
Long after you're gone
The birds keep singing
Like nothin's wrong
The world keeps spinning
Long after you're gone

World keeps spinning, the world keeps spinning
(Long after you're gone)
The world keeps spinning, the world keeps spinning
The world keeps spinning, the world keeps spinning
The world keeps spinning, the world

Now I'm watching time fall like sand
Through the years and through my hands
