Weight of the World lyrics

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)

Whoa, don't take it any further now, baby

Whoa, won't lead you anywhere

Whoa, it's pushin' and a-hurtin' you, baby

Whoa, I'll say a little prayer

No other wise man could take the hurt 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)

Whoa, don't take it any further now, baby

Whoa, won't lead you anywhere

Whoa, it's pushin' and a-hurtin' you, baby

Whoa, I'll say a little prayer

You keeped it wrapped up inside

It's like a lethal potion

(Gonna find it soul-destroying)

Whoa, don't take it any further now, baby

Whoa, won't lead you anywhere

Whoa, it's pushin' and a-hurtin' you, baby

Whoa, I'll say a little prayer

Whoa, don't take it any further now, baby

Whoa, won't lead you anywhere

Whoa, it's pushin' and a-hurtin' you, baby

Whoa, I'll say a little prayer  

Whoa, don't take it any further now, baby

Whoa, won't lead you anywhere

Whoa, it's pushin' and a-hurtin' you, baby
