While sunshine folds, the sky's two different shades of blue
And nighttime works half-days, I'm told
The world ends with you

Give my your heart and I'll never break it
My love is for real; I'll never fake it
Tell me anything you want
I got you, girl
Listen to me, don't reply the haters
I'll be here now and I'll be there later
Tell me everything you need
Don't worry, girl

Can I be your pool boy?
Swim around in it
I'm ready for the deep end
I've got some time tonight to make sure I do it right for you
Rockwood
Red light special, TLC
It's just you and me
Enjoy the ride, we'll be here all night

New York isn't New York without you, love
So far in a few blocks to be solo
And if I called you from First Avenue
Well, you're the only motherfucker in the city who can handle me
New love wasn't true love, back to you, love
So much for a home run with some blue bloods
If I last-strawed you on 8th Avenue
Well, you're the only motherfucker in the city who can stand me
I have lost a hero
I have lost a friend
But for you, darling
I'd do it all again
New York isn't New York without you, love
Too few of our old crew left on Astor
And if I trade our hood for some Hollywood
Well, you're the only motherfucker in the cit
You're the only motherfucker in the city who would
I know you're the only motherfucker in the city who'll forgive me

Ten decisions shape your life
You'll be aware of five, about
Seven ways to go through school
Either you're noticed or left out
Seven ways to get ahead
Seven reasons to drop out

I feel like I'm always set to self-destruct
Help me up
I'm falling into lacks of fucks to give, it sucks
I was born in the summer, heating up
Bars cold like tundra
Bundle up

You glow, you shine
You light up the room
You brighten up my June, my summer, July
I don't read the book about the burning bush, don't need it
I see god when you're around
I feel patience when you rush
I hear everything you've found
You told me without a sound
Starlight falls on you

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows some turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

I tried to put one in the air
...
I tried to change it with my hair
I ran my credit card bill up
Thought a new dress would make it better
I tried to work it away

The World Ends With You
03:39

There's something so familiar about myself
It comes and goes
A dream defied by memory
Buffer through the pain, load up on the times I knew I was strong
I'll never be wrong if I'm feeling joy
When life hits on flash, I'll smile for the boy I was in the past
While sunshine folds, the sky's two different shades of blue
And nighttime works half-days, I'm told
The world ends with you
Look how they be aligning
The stars are so bright tonight
There's just enough light to see myself
Everything is for a reason
You always seem like yesterday
I guess tomorrow's on it's way
Hit the lights when you snooze
While sunshine folds, the sky's two different shades of blue
And nighttime works half-days, I'm told
The world ends with you
