- This song has been covered by David Cook under the title "The World I Know".
Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all the kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on
[Pre-Chorus]
I drink myself of new found pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why...
Are we listening - To hymns of offering?
Have we eyes to see - That love is gathering?
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
Into one... into one
[Chorus]
So I walk up on high,
And I step to the edge,
To see my world below...
And I laugh at myself,
While the tears roll down,
'Cause it's the world I know...
Oh, it's the world I know...
[Pre-Chorus] ...Don't know why
[Chorus x2]
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all the kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on
[Pre-Chorus]
I drink myself of new found pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why...
Are we listening - To hymns of offering?
Have we eyes to see - That love is gathering?
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
Into one... into one
[Chorus]
So I walk up on high,
And I step to the edge,
To see my world below...
And I laugh at myself,
While the tears roll down,
'Cause it's the world I know...
Oh, it's the world I know...
[Pre-Chorus] ...Don't know why
[Chorus x2]
