Written by Ben Wilson I'll share my world with you Ev'rything that I own My earthly possessions They're no good if I'm alone Let me give you the sunshine While it's fresh with morning dew Can't you see that I'm waiting To share my world with you I'll share my world with you If you'll be mine alone I'll give you a new heart You're the only love it's known Let me give you my two arms They'll be reaching when you do Can't you see they are waiting To share my world with you I'll share my world with you Ev'rything that I see Divide all the memories One for you, and one for me Oh let me give you my two lips They'll be smile when you do Can't you see they are waiting To share my world with you Can't you see they are waiting To share my world with you
