Down, down, down came the world
I went round, round, round in a whirl
I built every dream around one girl
Then down, down, down came the world

She must have loved a little

How could lips that kiss so sweet

Of the perfect boy and girl
The only dream I own
In this world

Down, down, down came the world
I went round, round, round in a whirl
I built every dream around one girl
Then down, down, down came the world

I built every dream around one girl
Then down, down, down came the world
Down, down, down came the world
