Tell the World
Eric Hutchinson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's tell the world all the things we've done
Falling in love in the setting sun
I got a song and a smile so bright
I'll make you wish you were here tonight

All of the places we ever go
Feel familiar, I'm never alone
All of the people that I don't know
Will be looking me up when they all get home

Let's tell the world all the things we've done
Falling in love in the setting sun
I got a song and a smile so bright
I'll make you wish you were here tonight

And if you tell the world your secrets
You never know
They're set in stone
Or what can grow

Tell the world
Tell the world
I'm gonna tell the world
Tell the world
Tell the world
That I got something on my mind

Let's tell the world all the things we've done
Falling in love in the setting sun
I got a song and a smile so bright
I'll make you wish you were here tonight

Let's tell the world all the things we've done
Falling in love in the setting sun




I got a song and a smile so bright
I'll make you wish you were here tonight
