The World Still Turns

Kylie Minogue · 50 1 [1997]

If there was a chance

To save our broken romance

I'd let it go

'Cos now I know

That life doesn't end

You can start again

All isn't gone

Just carry on

Be your own best friend



It's easy to survive

Now that I finally realise



That the world still turns

The stars still shines

The way they did when you were mine

A broken heart

Is a lesson learned

Though we're apart

Baby, the world still turns



I couldn't believe

That you were going to leave

Without a care

Heading somewhere elsewhere

Ooh, my aching heart

Never thought that we would part

What could I do, my love for you

I was honest from the start



Time takes away the pain

And the sun will shine again



Cause the world still turns

Thestars still shine

The way they did when you were mine

A broken heart

Is a lesson learned

Though we're apart

Baby, the world still turns
