In This World

How in the world?
Now that I've found you
You are my world
In these times that keep us guessing
You're my answer and my blessing
Pretty damn amazing given
This peculiar world we live in
In this world
That's lost all its reason
At last there's a reason
For hope in my heart
In this world
Unsure of its future
So sure of you
I say, let the future start
In this world
That's yearning for someone
To answer the call
From out of the blue
In this world
I prayed there would come one
Magnificent someone
Someone like you
In this world
That's lost all its reason
At last there's a reason
For hope in our hearts
In this world
Unsure of its future
Somehow with you
I'm sure where the future starts
In this world
That's yearning for someone
To answer the call
From out of the blue
In this world
I prayed there would come one
Magnificent someone
Someone like you
