The World
Sean Tyas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How is my favorite letter
Time is not ever lasting
Now is the time to enter

High above the city lights
There is a feeling of stillness
I know you know
I know you know

Oh, hey this is the world
And it's the only world
Dancing, dancing
Oh, hey this is the world
And it's the only world
We go dancing, dancing

...great heights
We cover ourselves listening
Now is the time you enter

...summer days
... so tender
I know you know
I know you've been there here

Oh, hey this is the world
And it's the only world
We will ever know
Follow this road





And dancing, dancing

Love Sean Tyas! One of the best, and most underrated producers around. His melodic tunes are fantastic, not to mention the more aggressive club bursting basey tunes. Outstanding!
