Iris DeMent - Stop the world

You need someone to hold you You need something that you ain't been getting Yeah, I could be the one To tell you what to do, but it don't mean nothing And you're holding on forever But that something just ain't true I'm just like you And I know It's what I'd do Here I go Cause I could stop the world, 'cause I loved you I could stop the world, and I don't want to I could stop the world, and I won't Cause it ain't enough You had another bad day You let me know that you just can't take it I've given up on you You live in truth and I know I can't fake it Cause the stars you see are on a dirty sidewalk And they ain't for wishing ooh They don't come true And I know, it's what I'd do Here I go Cause I could stop the world, 'cause I loved you I could stop the world, and I don't want to I could stop the world, and I won't Cause it ain't enough I'm not too young for the world I'm not too young for the world
