Abbey Lincoln The World is falling down... lyrics

There are some folks

I used to know

Who used to smile

And say hello,

And spin the world

And turn the page

Entertaining

From the stage

Father time

Forever true

Loves its own

And me and you

Disappear just like the sun,

When the day is done.

The world is falling down,

Hold my hand

It's a lonely sound,

Hold my hand

We'll follow the breeze

And go like the wind

And look for a place

Where the willows bend

The world is falling down,

Hold my hand, hold my hand,

Hold my hand, hold my hand

Summer's gone

And winter's here

We had a lot of rain this year

The news is really very sad

The time is late,

The fruit is bad

The morning's come

And roosters crow

But people have no place to go

And disappear

Just like the sun

When the day is done

The world is falling down

Hold my hand

It's a lonely sound

Hold my hand

We'll follow the sund

And live for the day

And look for a place

Where the children play

The world is falling down

Hold my hand,

Hold my hand

Hold my hand

Hold my hand
