Around The World
Tammin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

London, Paris and Rome Vegas onto L.A.
Five a.m. flying in, following the day
Different races and places
I'm so far away from you

Such a world open for me and so much to be
It's time I packed up the camp site and toasted my dreams
And the soundtrack is a radio
It's tuned into my life

Cause a round the world ticket buys a million places
Yeah yeah I wanna get out
Could be so lucky but I'll take my chances
Cause I wanna be the girl in the movie who gets romances
I'm goin' around the world

People change, life goes on
Who do I want to be
It's time to wake up and face it
What's my destiny
Don't want to stand still and waste time live this crazy life

Cause a round the world ticket buys a million places
Yeah yeah I wanna get out
Could be so lucky but I'll take my chances
Cause I wanna be the girl in the movie who gets romances
I'm goin' around the world

You know I'll miss you more than words can say now
It's something I have to do
This is my journey and I'm sorry but I have to go now
But I'll always love you, oh yeah

Sweden, New York and Sydney, Milan, Mexico
This time I'm playing the lead
Just call me Miss Monroe
Still I just wish I wasn't so far away from you





I'm going around the world to find you
I'm going around the world?
