Did you think the world was yours Looking out across the sea of light As tears fell from his eyes What had happened to their lives, to their lives With the wave of his hand, I rise Took me to a place where there was no time Where there was no time Did you know that the world was on fire Like a story told so many times before Tried to cross the seas of desire That road won't take us there anymore It won't take us there anymore The life we live is what we choose We don't own this world We never did, we never will We don't own this world It's ours to share then pass it on We don't own this world, or the one beyond Though we thought the world was ours Looking out across the sky at night Old men may say to me (say to me) You must have faith, you must believe (You must believe) I hear the words he left to me We don't own this world We never did, we never will We don't own this world It's ours to share and pass it on We don't own this world (we don't own this world) We don't own this world, yeah Solo How we thought the world was ours Looking out across the sky at night Sky at night, oh, the sky at night We don't own this world We never did, we never will We don't own this world It's ours to share, then pass it on We don't own this world We never did, we never will We, we don't own this world It's not too late, I won't believe Your too blind to see that the worlds on fire
