I’m
writing you this letter from some old hotel
I
can feel the distance
between us
From
the Spanish
Steps to the Liberty Bell
I
know the angels
have seen us... seen us, baby
They see you down
on Seventh Avenue
While
you’re just
hanging by a thread
And
I’m sitting
in a lonely room without a view
Wishing
I was there
with you instead
Won’t
you walk through the world with me
Walk
through this
world
Over
the miles of
mystery
Walk
through this
world with me
I’m staring out across
the rooftops
I’ve
seen the writing
on the wall
Heard
a little bit
of thunder at the seventh wonder
But
everything is
bound to rise and fall, that’s all
Walk through this
world with me
Walk
through the
world
Over
the mountains
and the shining sea
Walk
through this
world with me...
Let me get this ringing
out of my ears
Let
me get these
stars out of my eyes
‘Cause
I just want
to look back over all the years
With
you right there
standing by my side. Could you just...
(repeat chorus)
