THE WORLD
T James Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well is this love?
Formed in the heart of the sun
Raised from the dust of our days
Learned from the error of our ways

Oh is this love?
A light in the dark of the world
Well I know you're a dancer
So take hold of my hand the world's smilin' now

Well is this love? Or are we just having fun?
And are you waiting just for me
Out where the heavens meet the sea?

Oh I knew it when we met and time stood still
A light in the dark of the world
Well I know you're a dancer
Just take hold of my hand the world's smilin' now

What a gift for today but will it always remain?
And how long does a good thing last?
Can we avoid mistakes from the past?

Oh and what if it dies?
Just disappears from your eyes?
Well you don't have to answer
Just take a hold of my hand the world's smili'n now
Well I know you're a dancer
Just take a hold of my hand the world's smilin' now





Oh is this love?
A light in the dark of the world

Overall Meaning

The song "Heal the World" by T James is a powerful plea for humanity to come together to create a better world. The opening lines of the song ("Deve haver um lugar dentro do seu coração/ Onde a paz brilhe mais que uma lembrança") suggest that there is a place within our hearts where peace can shine brighter than any memory, and that we should strive to find it. The song goes on to encourage listeners to reach out to those in need, to heal and support one another, and to work towards a world where love and compassion are the guiding forces. The refrain of the song ("Heal the world/ Make it a better place/ For you and for me/ And the entire human race") is a call to action, urging us to take responsibility for the well-being of our fellow human beings and the planet we share.


The verses of the song ("Sentir, chega o tempo de enxugar o pranto dos homens/ Se fazendo irmão, estendendo a mão") emphasize the importance of empathy and compassion, urging us to reach out to those who are suffering and to help ease their pain. The lyrics also suggest that by working together, we can create a world that is more peaceful and harmonious, where everyone is valued and supported. The song's final verse ("Se você começar outros vão te acompanhar/ E cantar com harmonia e esperança") encourages listeners to take action themselves, knowing that their efforts can inspire others to join in and work towards a shared goal.


Overall, "Heal the World" is a moving and inspirational song that invites us to reflect on our own actions and how we can contribute to creating a better world. Its central messages of love, compassion, and unity are as relevant today as they were when the song was first released in 1991.

Then why do we keep strangling life
So then why do we continue to suffocate life


Wound this earth, crucify its soul
Harm this planet, murder its spirit


Though it's plain to see
Even though it is obvious


This world is heavenly, be God's glow
This world is divine, be the light of God


Se você começar outros vão te acompanhar
If you begin, others will follow you


E cantar com harmonia e esperança

Create a world with no fear
Construct a world devoid of fear

Together we’ll shed tears of joy


See the nations turn their swords
Witness countries transform their weapons


Into plowshares
Into tools used for peaceful purposes


Deixe que esse canto lave o pranto do mundo
Let this song wash away the world’s tears

Só o amor muda o que já se fez
Only love can alter what’s already transpired

The power of peace unites all once more


Venha
Come on


Já é hora de acender a chama da vida
It’s time to light the flame of life


E fazer a terra inteira feliz

I didn't mean to hurt you
So why'd I let you walk out the door?
You say that you don't know me
You don't know who I am anymore
But if you knew the truth, then
Then you wouldn't feel insecure
'Cause if I didn't have you
I wouldn't have nothing at all
I wish you could see yourself through my eyes
I always forget that you can't read my mind
As long as I got you and me
Moving through this world as a two-man team
I'll always have everything I need
You don't even realise what you mean
No one could fall for you quite like me
No one could get me so perfectly
You don't even realise (Oh-oh-oh)
You're all that I need
'Cause I want you and me, you and me
I know one day we'll look back
Stories on the tip of our tongues
A library full of pages
Remembering when we fell in love
All of the broken hearts and the stupid mistakes
Have got us to where we are, it was worth all the pain
Yeah, we'll look back
We'll look back and laugh
As long as I got you and me
Moving through this world as a two-man team
I'll always have everything I need
You don't even realise what you mean
No one could fall for you quite like me
No one could get me so perfectly
You don't even realise (Oh-oh-oh)
You're all that I need
'Cause I want you, you, you
Me, me, me, together
Oh, I want you, you, you
Me, me, me, forever (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me (Oh-oh-oh)
You and me, you and me
As long as I got you and me
Moving through this world as a two-man team
I'll always have everything I need
You don't even realise what you mean (Oh-oh-oh)
No one could fall for you quite like me (Oh-oh-oh)
No one could get me so perfectly (Oh-oh-oh)
You don't even realise (Oh-oh-oh)
You're all that I need
'Cause I want you, you, you
And me, me, me, together (You and me, you and me)
Oh, I want you, you, you
And me, me, me, forever (You and me, you and me)
