[Verse 1]
It was a Monday
She was driving with the memories in the backseat
She was putting on her makeup
And as she turned around
She saw me
I was standing on the corner
Wishing I was in the backseat
And I said, "Everything's fine"
I thought everything's fine
I'm just standing on the corner
On this corner of the world
[Verse 2]
And as I gazed into the sky I see a plane
And I'll wonder where it's going
As a place to travel across the morning sky
I can see that there are faces watching me out of the window
And I wish that I was going in a plane across the sky
Watching everything go by
Watching everything go by
[Chorus]
I'm just standing here
On this corner of the world
Faces disappear
From this corner of the world
Oh, and everything's fine
Yeah, everything's fine
I'm just standing on the corner
On this corner of the world
[Verse 3]
And as I turned and faced the sunrise
There's a couple and they're walking
On the far side of the street
They got the baby in their hands
I can see that he is watching me
I'm standing on the corner
Wishing I was just a child
With my parents holding hands
Wishing I was over here
More than they would understand
Knowing they would understand
[Chorus]
I'm just standing here
On this corner of the world
Faces disappear
From this corner of the world
I'm just standing here
On this corner of the world
