Chris de Burgh - Living in the World Lyrics

Living in this fantasy, working with reality,
I have come back her again, to touch the sun and feel the rain,
Invitations, conversations, friends to make me strong,
I've seen that light and I watch it shine, living in the world;

Well I believe that destiny is written in the darkest sea,
With every movement that we make, and every footstep that we take,
Inspirations, correlations, where we're meant to be,
There's so much more that I want to know, living in the world;

Oh-oh still the hunger, oh-oh to see it all,
Oh-oh and the wonder of the sunlight in the morning,
And the moonlight on the bay,
I'm singing now;

Oh, oh, oh, living in the world,
Oh, oh, oh, living in the world;

Don't believe a word you read, and only half of what you see,
'Cause there are those who make it up, just to make that extra buck,
And when they write the poison, they will surely get it back,
And I'm still here, and I'm gonna stay, living in the world;

Oh-oh, in the spotlight,
Oh-oh, it can be hard,
Oh-oh, it's a hot light, when it's shining on the tough,
That's when the tough begins to shine,
I'm singing now;

Oh, oh, oh, living in the world,
Oh, oh, oh, living in the world;

I've seen the wonder of the forest in the light,
I've seen the miracle of winter birds in flight,
I've seen the universe come flashing in the night,
Living in the world;

And when they call me, I will be waiting, when it's time to go,
But I'm not ready yet!

Oh, oh, oh, living in the world,
Oh, oh, oh, living in the world.

Living in the world, living in the world
