Hold me up baby, for I may fall Hold my dishrag body tall Our bodies melt together, we are one Post-crucifixion, baby Post-crucifixion and all undone It's a wild world It's a wild world La la la la la la la la la It's a wild world Hey, it's a wild world Church bells ring out the toll of our night Falling forever forward, forever backward, forever forward, alright Strophe and antistrophe Strophe and antistrophe, hey Antistrophe, come on and kiss me tight It's a wild world, a wild world Way up here in your arms tonight It's a wild world It's a wild world It's a wild world It's a wild world
