You and the World Outside - The Del McCoury Band

If words alone could break a heart
Mine never would would be broken
But just one look from my darlin’s eyes
Not a word need ever be spoken
Not a word need ever be spoken

A little feather, bird in flight
Up in the sky, all alone
Ever so swiftly he’s brought down to earth
By some child slinging stones
By some child slinging stones

A tender heart, so like a bird
Once broke it can’t ever be mended
You must go your way, as I go mine
That’s how a true love is ended
That’s how a true love is ended

The time has come for us to part
I know that I will survive
I hope that you may find your way
You and the world outside
You and the world outside
That’s how a true love is ended
That’s how a true love is ended
