I was a man with a world in his hand but I dropped it

A world of dreams a world of plans but I dropped it

It didn't lay there very long I turned around and it was gone

He took my girl he put my world right in his pocket



All she wanted was my love and understanding

I didn't care enough I wasn't bear enough and she got lonely



I was a man with a world in his hand but I dropped it

A world of dreams a world of plans but I dropped it

And good things don't just lay around neglected on the ground

He took my girl he put my world right in his pocket

He took my girl he put my world right in his pocket
