I′ve been around the world - Hey, hey I′ve been around the world - Hey, hey
In the kitchen where I′m cooking what is good for me Spices from the globe Little by little it′s the finest meal It′s appetite for hope - come and see
You mix it all together in your dreams Ingredients from the seven Seas and I′m realizing things ain′t what they seem That′s the riddle of it That′s the spirit of it That′s the power of life
I′ve been around the world (Round the world) And I′ve seen it all (Seen it all) I′ve been around the world (Round the world) The sun will always rise and fall I′ve been around the world (Round the world) And I want you to see (Seen it all) I′ve been the only girl (Round the world) All surrounded by mystery
In the living room I′m cleaning up from top to floor The place I love the most The wall is covered up with all my souvenirs I′ve got from coast to coast - come and see
You mix it all together in your dreams Ingredients from the seven Seas and I′m realizing things ain′t what they seem That′s the riddle of it That′s the spirit of it That′s the power of life
I′ve been around the world (Round the world) And I′ve seen it all (Seen it all) I′ve been around the world (Round the world) The sun will always rise and fall I′ve been around the world (Round the world) And I want you to see (Seen it all) I′ve been the only girl (Round the world) All surrounded by mystery
I′m still coming around I keep chasing dreams Girl, I keep coming around - Hey, Hey I keep coming around And I can never stop Girl, I keep coming around Cause if I do I′ll walk Around around - around the world
I′ve been around the world (Round the world) Hey hey (Seen it all) I′ve been around the world (Round the world) All surrounded by mystery I′ve been around the world (Round the world) And I′ve seen it all (Seen it all) I′ve been around the world (Round the world) The sun will always rise and fall Round the world
Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know it all Close your eyes and I With the birds I With the birds I This lonely view With the birds I This lonely view Push me up against the wall Young Kentucky girl in a push-up bra Fallin To lick your heart and taste your health With the birds I This lonely view...
Blood loss in a bathroom stall Southern girl with a scarlet drawl Wave good-bye to ma and pa With the birds I With the birds I This lonely view With the birds I This lonely view
Soft spoken with a broken jaw Step outside but not to brawl Autumn I With the birds I This lonely view...
Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know it all Close your eyes and I With the birds I With the birds I This lonely view With the birds I This lonely view...
The kisses of the sun Were sweet I didn′t blink I let it in my eyes Like an exotic dream The radio playing songs That I have never heard I don′t know what to say Oh, not another word
Just - la la la la la - It goes around the world Just - la la la la la - It′s all around the world Just - la la la la la - And everybody′s singing La la la la la - And now the bells are ringing La la la la la la la la...
Inside an empty room My inspiration flows Now wait to hear the tune Around my head it goes The magic melody You want to sing with me Just - la la la la la - The music is the key And now the night is gone Still it goes on and on So deep inside of me I long to set it free I don′t know what to do Just can′t explain to you I don′t know what to say Oh, not another word

[Chorus:] See I′ve been around the world and I I can′t find my lover Been around the world and I I don′t know where she can be Been around the world and I I can′t find my lover Been around the world and I And I can′t even find myself
Hey Yeah Oh oh

[Chorus:] See I′ve been around the world and I I can′t find my lover Been around the world and I I don′t know where she can be Been around the world and I I can′t find my lover Been around the world and I I can′t even find myself
Hey you know what I′m talking about I ain′t the only one who′s feeling down and out
No, there′s no spaces they clutter up my mind Those wonderful traces Suddenly there′s no place I can find My lover my lover My lover my lover
Yeah yeah ohh

[Chorus:] See I′ve been around the world and I I can′t find my lover Been around the world and I I don′t know where she can be Been around the world and I I can′t find my lover Been around the world and I I don′t know where she can be
