Harold Arlen
I’ve Got the World On a String
[Chorus: Tony Bennett]
I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
I got the string around my finger
What a world what a life
I’m in love
[Verse: Diana Krall & Tony Bennett]
I got a song that I sing
I can make the rain go
Anytime I move my finger
What a world, what a life
I am in love
Life is a beautiful thing
As long as I hold that string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let go
[Chorus: Diana Krall]
I've got the world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got a string around my finger
What a world, what a life
I am in love
[Outro: Tony Bennett & Diana Krall, both]
Life is a beautiful thing
Life is a beautiful thing
As long as I hold that string
As long as I’ve got hold of that string
I'd be a silly so-and-so
I'd be a silly so-and-so
If I should ever let go
If I should ever let go
I've got that world on a string
Sitting on a rainbow
Got that string around my finger
What a world, what a life
What a world, what a life
What a world, what a life, what a life
We're in love
We're in love
