I Can Turn Your World Around
Connie Smith · Born to Sing (Bear Family (Germany)) [2001]
Everytime our worlds meet I start crying
All my heart strings grow tied than common wound
'Cause I know you'll go back to the dark side
Will my love ever turn your world around.
When they'd lock all the doors to the taverns
And the law runs your old friends out of town
You can cry your regrets on my shoulder
Maybe then I can turn your world around.
--- Instrumental ---
If my love could be turned into silver
I'd just buy out your world and give you mine
Then return your poor heart through the good things
Well, to you love's not just a frame of mind.
When they'd lock all the doors to the taverns
And the law runs your old friends out of town
You can cry your regrets on my shoulder
Maybe then I can turn your world around.
I pray that then I can turn your world around...
