Stop the World (And Let Me Off)

(Written by Carl Belew & W.S. Stevenson)



(Round n' around n' around)

(Round n' around n' around)

(Round n' around n' around)

(And around and around)



Oh, stop the world and let me off

I'm tired of goin' round n' round

I've played the game of love and lost

So stop the world and let me off



My heart is shattered can't you see

'Cause you no longer care for me

But someday I'm sure you'll see

Loving you did this to me



My dream world tumbled to the ground

The one I love has let me down

I lost the wonder of his kiss

How could he leave me here like this



Oh, stop the world and let me off

I'm tired of goin' round n' round

I have played the game of love and lost

So stop the world and let me off



--- Instrumental ---



Lock all this burning up inside

I know his love for me has died

I lost the wonder of his kiss

How could he leave me here like this



Oh, stop the world and let me off

I'm tired of goin' round n' round

I've played the game of love and lost

So stop the world and let me off...
