I know a girl from an island She stands apart from the crowd She loves the sea and her people She makes her whole family proud Sometimes the world seems against you The journey may leave a scar But scars can heal and reveal just Where you are The people

Babe it's you and I Looking at all or nothing It's just us against the world With you I know that I am good for something We've got our backs against the ocean You've got all that I need So let's go give it a try So lets go give it a try

Once upon a time I could take anything, anything. This isn't giving up, no this is letting go Out with the old dreams I've borrowed The path I carve from here on out will be my own The wind died The whole world ceased to move Now so quiet Her beating

I will be right here We ride the highs and lows When the smoke clears You'll never be alone Even when your world explodes 'Cause after all the smoke clears "You and I, against the world" That's what you told me An emotional roller coaster, yeah

From this world All die young? Now when the White flames are burning flags We've been battered so hard that

It's do or die It's me against the world Time, you're never going to take me alive Gonna to find another way to survive (Hey) It's just me against the world Set in stone right now It's only a matter of time You're never going to take me alive Gonna to

A hero of war Yeah that's what I'll be And when I come home They'll be damn proud of me I'll carry this flag To the grave if I must Cause it's a flag that I love And a flag that I trust He said son, have you seen the world?

They laughed at me wanting you But oh, you came through The odds were a hundred to one against me The world thought the heights were too high to climb But people from missouri never incensed me Oh, I wasn't a bit concerned For from hist'ry I had learned

There was magic in the air it was everywhere that we touched down The carnival ride and the high we were on as it went around In case you don't remember It was us against the world and you swore girl that we'd never surrender But I still can't forget you

It's a beautiful world we live in A sweet romantic place Beautiful people everywhere The way they show they care makes me want to say It's a beautiful world Oh what a beautiful world It's a wonderful time to be here It's nice to be alive
