Weight of the World Lyrics

Hey little wise man
You got the sweetest notion
Ooh the sweetest thing
Just once in a lifetime
You need a helping hand
Ooh a caring hand

You keep it wrapped up inside
It´s like a lethal potion
Gonna find it soul destroying

Wouh, don´t take it any further now baby
Wouh, won´t lead you anywhere
Wouh, it´s pushing and a hurting you baby
Wouh, I´ll say a little prayer

No other wise man
Could take the hurt like you do
Ooh the pain like you
Putting on a brave face
But it gets to you somehow
Ooh gets through somehow

You hold your head in your hands
And the weight of the world on your shoulders
Come and pour your heart out to me

Wouh, don´t take it any further now baby
Wouh, won´t lead you anywhere
Wouh, it´s pushing and a hurting you baby
Wouh, I´ll say a little prayer

You keep it wrapped up inside
It´s like a lethal potion
Gonna find it soul destroying

Wouh, don´t take it any further now baby
Wouh, won´t lead you anywhere
Wouh, it´s pushing and a hurting you baby
Wouh, I´ll say a little prayer
