Paul McCartney
The World Tonight
[Verse 1]
I saw you sitting at the center of a circle
Everybody, everybody wanted something from you
I saw you sitting there
[Verse 2]
Saw you swaying to the rhythm of the music
Caught you playing, caught you praying to the voice inside you
Saw you swaying there
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I don't care what you wanna be
I go back so far, I'm in front of me
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away, hey hey
[Chorus]
I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight
[Verse 3]
I heard you listening to a secret conversation
You were crying, you were trying not to let them hear you
I heard you listening in
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Never mind what they want to do
You've got a right to your point of view
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away, hey hey
[Chorus]
I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight
[Instrumental Break]
I can see the world tonight
[Verse 4]
I saw you hiding from a flock of paparazzi
You were hoping, you were hoping
That the ground would swallow you
I saw you hiding there
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I don't care what you wanna be
I go back so far, I'm in front of me
It doesn't matter what they say
They're giving the game away, hey hey
[Chorus]
I can see the world tonight
Look into the future
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight
[Outro]
Look into the future
I can see the world tonight
See it in a different light
I can see the world tonight
I can see the world tonight
