The World and I lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm on the run
She's lighting up
One more cigarette to calm down
I'm driving home
Pick up the phone, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
She says, "I can't hear you"
Well, you need to
I'm on the way back home now
"I can't hear you"
Well, you need to

[Chorus]
Hanging by a thread, I'm hanging on
The world and I, we meet at last
I'm on the run
Hanging by a thread, I'm hanging on
The world and I, we meet at last
I'm moving on

[Verse 2]
The gloves are off
The curtains drawn shut
Same as the door behind me
The drink in her hand
Emergency lands, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
She says, "I can't hear you"
Well, you need to
I'm hanging up the phone now
"I can't hear you"
Well, you need to

[Refrain]
Mystified
The world and I

[Chorus]
Hanging by a thread, I'm hanging on
The world and I, we meet at last
I'm on the run
Hanging by a thread, I'm hanging on
The world and I, we meet at last
I'm moving on

[Bridge]
"I can't hear you"
Well, you need to
"I can't hear you"
Well, you need to

[Refrain]
Mystified
The world and I
[Chorus]
Hanging by a thread, I'm hanging on
The world and I, we meet at last
I'm on the run
Hanging by a thread, I'm hanging on
The world and I, we meet at last
I'm moving on

[Outro]
Yeah, the world and I
Yeah, the world and I
