Grass is green
Like I've never seen.
Sky above was never so blue.
Now here am I
No one standing near.
It's a lonely world
Such a lonely world.

The world through a tear
From days gone by
The world through a tear
Too slow to dry
The world through a tear.
The tear I cry.

Just last year
We wandered here
And dreamed a dream
That never would die.
Now only me
Hopin' she'll appear
It's a lonely world
Such a lonely world

The world through a tear
From days gone by
The world through a tear
Too slow to dry
The world through a tear
The tear I cry.
