Now that I've lost everything to you
You say you want to start something new
And it's breaking my heart you're leaving
Baby I'm grieving
But if you want to leave take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child girl
You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do
And it's breaking my heart in two
'Cause I never want to see you sad girl
Don't be a bad girl
But if you want leave take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad everywhere
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child girl yeah
La la la
La la la
Baby I love you, but if you want to leave take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad everywhere
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just just upon a smile
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child girl oh yeah
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Yeah
Oh baby baby it's a wild world
And I'll always remember you like a child girl

I am 59 years old and I just got introduced to this band through first time hearing through Rob Squad. I never knew who sang To Be With You. So now I am a big fan of the band. I am going to go buy your music. Love it. Because I went to listen to other songs. Love the band, voices, drums, guitars all the instruments. Love the song oh the lyrics and the long hair. Thank you for the great music.
