Weight Of The World - Erasure

Hey little wise man, you’ve got the sweetest notion

Ooh the sweetest thing

Just once in a lifetime you need a helping hand

Ooh a helping hand

You keep it wrapped up inside

It’s like a lethal potion

Gonna find it soul-destroying

Woah, don’t take it any further now baby

Woah, won’t lead you anywhere

Woah, it’s pushing and a-hurting you baby

Woah, I’ll say a little prayer

No other wise man can take the pain like you do

Ooh the pain like you

You’re putting on brave face but it gets to you somehow

Ooh gets through somehow

You hold your head in your hands

And the weight of the world on your shoulders

Come and pour your heart out to me

Woah, don’t take it any further now baby

Woah, won’t lead you anywhere

Woah, it’s pushing and a-hurting you baby

Woah, I’ll say a little prayer

You keeped it wrapped up inside

It’s like a lethal potion

Gonna find it soul-destroying

Woah, don’t take it any further now baby

Woah, won’t lead you anywhere

Woah, it’s pushing and a-hurting you baby

Woah, I’ll say a little prayer
