[Verse 1]
In a perfect world, we'd be
Like a river, wild and free
Forever holding on to nothing
By having everything we need
[Verse 2]
You say the world's a scary place
Worry is all over your face
Try to hold on to what you know
You can lean on me, I will not let you go
[Chorus 1]
We get lost along the way
I know it hurts right now but it will fade
Sometimes it's hard to find some light
With darkness on the left, and on the right
Believe me, love will save the day
[Verse 3]
Look at what a mess we've made
What we imagine, we create
How do we undo what we've done?
How do we get back to being one?
[Chorus 1]
We get lost along the way
I know it hurts right now but it will fade
Sometimes it's hard to find some light
With darkness on the left, and on the right
Believe me, love will save the day
[Bridge]
This is the same world, the lovely world
How it used to be
Hard to believe when you see what they show you on TV
Feels like a boat that is lost, being tossed out on the waves
Grab my hand if you can
Hold it tightly, and be brave
Though the time, time can change
Change can come if you make it
Tell your brain we can maintain, even if we have to fight
Hold on, be strong, it's not bad to be sad
I get sad too, you're not alone
There is always me and you
[Chorus 2]
We get lost along the way
If only we could learn from yesterday
We get lost along the way
You know it hurts right now but it will fade
We get lost along the way
If only we could learn from yesterday
Right now it's hard to find some light
With darkness on the left and on the right
Believe me, love will save the day
Oh, oh
In a perfect world, we'd be
Like a river, wild and free
Forever holding on to nothing
By having everything we need
[Verse 2]
You say the world's a scary place
Worry is all over your face
Try to hold on to what you know
You can lean on me, I will not let you go
[Chorus 1]
We get lost along the way
I know it hurts right now but it will fade
Sometimes it's hard to find some light
With darkness on the left, and on the right
Believe me, love will save the day
[Verse 3]
Look at what a mess we've made
What we imagine, we create
How do we undo what we've done?
How do we get back to being one?
[Chorus 1]
We get lost along the way
I know it hurts right now but it will fade
Sometimes it's hard to find some light
With darkness on the left, and on the right
Believe me, love will save the day

Believe me, love will save the day
Oh, oh
