LYRICS 
people passing through my vision
figures fade into the grey
no one cares to even listen
so there’s plenty left to say
now I want to know so tell me 
should I simply look away 
Say it’s only on the tv 
it’s 3000 miles away 

And this great big world
she’s a little  child
this great big world 
she crawls so fast  
this great big world
she’s a little wild
all she needs is a friend
a love that can last .. 
 
Now i see no sense or reason
In the way we aim and shoot
While it's finger trigger season
Those without go out and loot
Then it's getting home at sunrise 
Far too late to go to sleep
And the leaders are all lost now
In the plastic ocean deep deep deep 

And this great big world
she’s on her knees 
this great big world
in a digital trance
this great big world
you gotta aim to please
All she needs is a love 
A reason to dance 

when I wake up in the morning
cast a look towards the sun
how it comes without a warning
shadows fall on everyone 
is it only in our dreams now ?
People need to count the cost
With no fear of being hung up 
With no fear of being lost 

And this great big world 
Has a broken wing
This great big world 
She's losing her song 
This great big world 
She's a pretty thing 
A face in the crowd 
Crying too long ....
