That’s the Way of the World Lyrics

[Chorus]
Hearts afire
Creates love desire
Take you high and higher
To the world you belong

Hearts afire
Creates love desire
High and higher
To your place on the throne

[Verse 1]
We've come together on this special day (Huh)
Sing a message loud and clear (Hmm, mm)
Looking back, we've touched on sorrowful days (Well!)
Future, past, they disappear (Haw, haaaw)

[Bridge]
You will find (You will find)
Peace of mind (Yeah, ha)
If you look way down
In your heart and soul
Ahh, don't hesitate
'Cause the world seems cold
Stay young at heart
Ahh, 'cause you're never
Never old at heart (Never, never, never, never, never, never)
Oh, yeah, yeah, ha

[Chorus]
That's the way (That's the way)
Of the world (Of the world)
Plant your flower (Gonna plant your flower)
And you grow a pearl (Heeey, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Child is born
With a heart of gold (Ooh, ah, ah, yeah)
Way of the world (Gonna plant your flower)
Makes his heart so cold
Oooh, ooh, ooh, ha, Lord
Can't you see me, y'all?
Say, hey
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Ahhh, luh

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Hearts afire
Creates love desire
Take you high and higher
To the world you belong

Love desire
High and higher
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hearts afire
Love desire
High, higher
Mmm, mmm, mm, mm
Haw, haw

[Verse 2]
We've come together on this special day
Sing our message loud and clear (Ay, yah!)
Looking back, we've touched on sorrowful days
While future disappear

[Bridge]
You will find (You will find)
Peace of mind (Ay, hey)
If you look way down
In your heart and soul
Ah, don't hesitate
'Cause the world seems cold
Stay young at heart ('Cause)
'Cause you're never, never, never, never, never, never, never
Ay, yee, ay, yee, ay, yee, yeah, ha

Of the world (Yaow! Hey, yeah!)
Plant your flowers
And you'll grow a pearl (Aaah, oooh)

With a heart of gold

Makes his heart so cold (Makes his heart so cold)
