Goodnight Old World

Lyrics

Sometimes I feel like I'm drownin' in teardrops
 My eyes are so tired of the trouble I've seen
 Then you fell from the heavens right into this sad place
 Remembering God for a while in your dreams
 And you look to me now and I greet the new day
 With the eyes of a child and the wonder you bring
 So goodnight old world, we'll see you tomorrow
 We rise with the sun and fall with the sparrow
 But here is this child to soften the sorrow
 Goodnight old world, old world goodnight
 ♪
 You fell from the heavens right into this sad place
 Remembering God for a while in your dreams
 And you look to me now and I greet the new day
 With the eyes of a child and the wonder you bring
 So goodnight old world, we'll see you tomorrow
 We rise with the sun and fall with the sparrow
 But here is this child to soften the sorrow
 Goodnight old world, old world goodnight
 ♪
 Goodnight old world, old world goodnight
