a black swan rode me into my place of destiny

to love, to feel so madly

stubborn to disagree

with people who think that life is just a memory

to be denied

i'll take this picture for ages

of just you and i



as the world goes 'round

it's got me thinking

that the things i want

just keep me sinking down



a white horse picks my dreams up

to take my hopes to god

my prayers have nestled brightly

to dim my sense of awe

i want you to be someone i can't deny

a house of fire

i want you to be something i realize



as the world goes 'round

it's got me thinking

that the things i want

just keep me sinking down

as the world goes 'round

it's got me thinking

that the things i want

will keep me sinking down



remove my spirit from darkness

love become my heaven

as the world goes 'round with our love



i want you to be my message

i want you to be my friend

i want you to be that answer

an answer i must defend

i want us to solve our distrust of everyone

and trust in god

i want us to solve our distrust of who we are



as the world goes 'round

it's got me thinking

that the things i want

just keep me sinking down

as the world goes 'round

it's got me thinking

that the things i want

just keep me sinking down



as the world goes 'round with our love

as the world goes 'round with our love



remove my spirit from darkness

love become my heaven

remove my spirit from darkness

love become my heaven

remove my spirit from darkness

love become my heaven

as the world goes 'round with our love

as the world goes 'round with our love
