The Whole World (Looking Over My Shoulder)

The Whole World

I wouldn't want you to break the rules
Or unlearn the lessons you learnt in school
Rehearse and hearse or play the fool
For me
To see
But since I see you have it off by heart
Would it please you to have a personal part
Well I'll make a stand if you'll make a start for me
To see
The whole world looking over my shoulder

Now we're all alone as far as I cant tell
I think our intentions are going to gel
Since you came on a whim and you stayed for a spell with me
Just to see
Now you're leading me on like a voice from the past
I think that the feeling is going to last
Since the final performance as yet to be cast away
You stay
With the whole world looking over my shoulder
The whole world looking over my shoulder
