[Verse 1]
Moving forward using all my breath
Making love to you was never second best
I saw the world rushing all around your face
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace

[Chorus]
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
And it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you

[Verse 2]
Dream of better lives
The kind which never hate
Wrapped in a state of imaginary grace
I made a pilgrimage to save this human race
Never comprehending the race had long gone by

[Chorus]
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
And it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you
[Bridge]
The future is open wide

[Chorus]
I'll stop the world and melt with you
I've seen some changes
But it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
The future is open wide
Hmm Hmm Hmm Hmm Hmm Hmm
I'll stop the world and melt with you
