Sweet Old World Lyrics by Emmylou Harris

Sweet Old World Lyrics

    (lucinda williams)

    See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world
    See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world

    The breath from your own lips, the touch of fingertips
    A sweet and tender kiss
    The sound of a midnight train, wearing someone's ring
    Someone calling your name
    Somebody so warm cradled in your arm
    Didn't you think you were worth anything

    See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world
    See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world

    Millions of us in love, promises made good
    Your own flesh and blood
    Looking for some truth, dancing with no shoes
    The beat, the rhythm, the blues
    The pounding of your heart's drum together with another one
    Didn't you think anyone loved you

    See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world
    See what you lost when you left this world, this sweet old world
