Artist/Band: John Mellencamp
Lyrics for Song: Where The World Began
Lyrics for Album: John Mellencamp [1998]



I'm tired of being grateful for a chance to take a dive

I'm sick of everything I do just to keep myself alive

When you cut away the skin that bears the brand

Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am



Standin' in the darkness

Someone call my name out

Standin' in the darkness

Someone put the flame out

Standin' in the darkness

Baby, there I am

Where the world began



Saw the man in Jamaica, he had a shadow on his back

I recalled the ring of fire, and he wore his suit of black

When the legend and the ocean meet the sand

Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am



Standin' in the darkness

Someone call my name out

Standin' in the darkness

Someone put the flame out

Standin' in the darkness

Baby, there I am

Where the world began



Everyone is so fabulous, hey, we all got our gun

Old Snakey's not a sinner, no, he just shows us how it's done

When you separate the wretched from the damned

Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am



Standin' in the darkness

Someone call my name out

Standin' in the darkness

Someone put the flame out

Standin' in the darkness

Baby, there I am

Where the world began
