When you climbed out of bed this morning Did you wish you had never been born Did the weight of the burden your bearing Seem planted in your side like a thorn Well it all might seem bigger than you are Just remember as it spins in a swirl To the world you’re just one person But to o-ne person you’re the world Like a father to his daughter Like a mother to her son Like a lover to a lover You’re someone to someone While the storm clouds go on raging As the wind blows the flags unfurl To the world you’re just one person But to o-ne person you’re the world So when you’re down with troubles looming I’ll be the rock that won’t roll Call me and I’ll come running I’ll love you even when we’re old One small deed becomes a miracle A single grain of sand becomes a pearl To the world you’re just one person But to o-ne person you’re the world Like mama to her boy Like daddy to his girl To the world you’re just one person But to o-ne person you’re the world To the world you’re just one person But to o-ne person you’re the world
