Merry month of May, sunny skies of blue Clouds have rolled away and the sun peaks through May express happiness Joy you may define in a thousand ways But a case like mine needs a special phrase To reveal how I feel I've got the world on a string, sittin' on a rainbow Got the string around my finger What a world, what a life, I'm in love I've got a song that I sing, I can make the rain go Anytime I move my finger Lucky me, can't you see I'm in love? Life is a beautiful thing as long as I hold the string I'd be a silly so-and-so if I should ever let it go I've got the world on a string, sitting on a rainbow I've got the string around my finger What a world, what a life, I'm in love

You know I lose, you know I win You know I call for the shape I'm in. It's just a game you see me play, Only real in the way That I feel from day to day. Although the answer is not unknown, I'm searchin', searchin', and how I've grown. It's not all right to say goodbye, And the world on a string Doesn't mean a thing. No, the world on a string Doesn't mean a thing. It's only real in the way That I feel from day to day. No, the world on a string Doesn't mean a thing.

All of my life I've been searching for someone Whose love was right And could be relied on Before tonight I never thought I'd discover Such a perfect lover Show me that it's real Turn on your love lite Baby come treat me right And then let me know what I can do for you Turn on your love lite Take me to a greater height Do it one more time and I'll believe it's true Day after day I kept my heart disconnected I thought this way I'd be well protected But meeting you Suddenly sent my heart reeling I couldn't fight the feeling Even if I tried Turn on your love lite Baby come treat me right And then let me knwo what I can do for you Turn on your love lite Take me to a greater height Do it one more time and I'll believe it's true Make it last a lifetime Get beneath my skin I don't want to wake up From this dream that I'm in Turn on your love lite Baby come treat me right And then let me know what I can do for you Turn on your love lite Take me to a greater height Do it one more time and I'll believe it's true

Baby, maybe you're an angel Love made its incision Maybe I'm your victim, oh no Lately I'm inclined to tell you I've made my decision Not to let you go, oh no Now don't say that love is dying We've got to keep on trying Never letting go Baby, loving you feels right I want to tell you It doesn't matter what the price I will always greet Every sacrifice Over and over Tell me, why is love so fragile It's a blue condition Something that can't be defined And tell me How can I be mellow If the love is dying Loving you feels right I want to tell you It doesn't matter what the price I will always greet Every sacrifice Over and over

If I had one wish It would be for Donna One pair of lips Only hers on mine No, I can't resist Any thought of Donna Takes a hold of my heart Like a clinging vine Have you ever wanted something So bad it makes you blind? And each night It's the last thing on your mind Oh Donna all I wanna do Is somehow make you mine Maybe your heart's Not the hurting kind I've been getting worse Hypnotized by Donna In a social decline That's what people say If I can't converse It's because of Donna Don't be asking me For the time of day Have you ever wanted something So bad it makes you blind? And each night It's the last thing on your mind Donna Donna I gave up on Trying to be fine What's been running Up and down my spine Have you ever wanted something So bad it makes you blind? And each night It's the last thing on your mind Oh Donna all I wanna do Is somehow make you mine Maybe your heart's Not the hurting kind
