You come to the end

And the light there is dimmer

And chances are slimmer

Of findin' your way

You find that you stay out

Of trouble and danger

'Cause everything's stranger

Than it used to be

You're a scary old place out there world

But I couldn't be happy without you

And I swear all my thoughts are about you

The most beautiful world in the world



Well the light can be bright there

And everything's right there

The end of the night there might be a big band

Or a heavenly chior--Or it might be the fire

But no matter what happens

I bet it's OK

You're a scary old place out there world

But I couldn't be happy without you

And I swear all my thoughts are about you

The most beautiful world in the world



Your mountains when you're mad

Your rivers when your sad

And those deep blue seas

I love you for your snow

Your deserts down below

I love the way you wear your trees

The most beautiful world in the world

And though there are times when I doubt you

I just couldn't stay here without you



So when you get older

And over your shoulder

You look back to see if it's real

Tell her she's beautiful

Roll the world over

And give her a kiss and a feel



So long, folks!

Goodbye, Harry.

See you next album, Richard.

GOODBYE
