Julee Cruise’s “The World Spins” is a dream-pop ballad written and produced by David Lynch and Angelo Badalamenti. Originally recorded for Cruise’s 1989 album Floating Into the Night, the song gained iconic status when she performed it in a climactic sequence in the seventh episode of the second sea...
[Verse 1]
Moving near the edge at night
Dust is dancing in the space
A dog and bird are far away
The sun comes up and down each day
Light and shadow change the walls
Halley's Comet's come and gone
The things I touch are made of stone
Falling through this night alone
[Chorus]
Love
Don't go away
Come back this way
Come back and stay
Forever and ever
Please stay
[Verse 2]
Dust is dancing in the space
A dog and bird are far away
The sun comes up and down each day
The river flows out to the sea
[Chorus]
Love
Don't go away
Come back this way
Come back and stay
Forever and ever
The world spins
