Dr. John — World I Never Made lyrics

Lyrics

The late show is over
And the city fast asleep
And I’m lost in a world
That’s just too cold and deep
I’ve turned so many ways
I’m spinning like a top
And I wish that I could get off
Or get this world to stop
I’m a stranger and afraid
I’m a stranger and afraid
I’m a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made
I’m always chasing dragons
With a sword that’s made of tin
So I know in my soul
There’s no way I can win
I tried, oh I tried
But there’s no place, no place to go There’s no one here who knows me And no one here I know
I’m a stranger and afraid
I’m a stranger and afraid
I’m a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made
