(Let's stop the world) (Let's stop the world)
Moving forward using all my breath Making love to you was never second best I saw the world thrashing all around your face Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace
I'll stop the world and melt with you You've seen the difference and It's getting better all the time There's nothing you and I won't do I'll stop the world and melt with you
(You should know better) Dream of better lives, the kind which never hate (You should see why) Dropped in the state of imaginary grace (You should know better) I made a pilgrimage to save this human's race (You should see why) What I'm comprehending a race that long gone by
(I'll stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you (I'll stop the world) You've seen the difference and It's getting better all the time (Let's stop the world) There's nothing you and I won't do (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you
The future's open wide The future's open wide
(Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you (Let's stop the world) I've seen some changes, but It's getting better all the time (Let's stop the world) There's nothing you and I won't do (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you
The future's open wide
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...
I'll stop the world and melt with you (Let's stop the world) You've seen the difference and It's getting better all the time (Let's stop the world) There's nothing you and I won't do (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you (Let's stop the world)
I'll stop the world and melt with you (Let's stop the world) (Let's stop the world) I'll stop the world and melt with you
