Turn the World Around
Dean Martin · Lay Some Happiness On Me: The Reprise Years (Repri [2002]
Turn the world around the other way
Back it up and stop on yesterday
Back to before that silly fight
And give me a chance to make things right.
I said some things I didn't mean to
Say things that I am sorry for today
Down on my knees I beg you
Please to turn the world around the other way.
I never really wanted us to break up
Snd I'm sorry for each teardrop that you've cried
We need to give our hearts a chance to make up
And darling will you stand in by my side.
We'll turn the world around the other way
Back to where it started yesterday
Just take my hand, together
We can turn the world around the other way.
Turn the world around the other way
Back it up and stop on yesterday
Just take my hand, together
We can turn the world around the other way.
Yes, turn the world around the other way...
