The World Turns

He said, "I love you and I always will"
She caught her breathe, her heart stood still
They'll always be together
At least until the world turns

She went to college, he stayed home
Talked every night on the telephone
But love can't live on words alone
When the world turns

The world we're livin' in keeps on spinning and
Slippin' through the hands of time
We're only here for a while so enjoy the ride
And laugh and love and learn

That the world turns
Yeah, the world turns

They both went their separate ways
He seldom thought about the good old days
Till he saw her picture on the wedding page
Man, the world turns

The world we're livin' in keeps on spinning and
Slippin' through the hands of time
We're only here for a while so enjoy the ride
And laugh and love and learn

That the world turns
Yeah, the world turns

Ten years later on a southbound train
Her familiar voice calls out his name
Call it fate, chance or destiny but just the same
The world turns

The world we're livin' in keeps on spinning and
Slippin' through the hands of time
We're only here for a while so enjoy the ride
And laugh and love and learn
And laugh and love and learn

That the world turns
(It just keeps spinning)
Yeah, the world turns
(Yeah, it keeps on spinning)

That the world turns
(It just keeps spinning)
Yeah, the world turns

He said, "I love you and I always will"
