I used to carry the weight of the world   On my back   I never trusted my friends or my girl   Can you imagine that   I used to shuffle my feet   When I walked I hung my head down low   Kept to myself all my private thoughts   But when I met you girl.      I dropped the weight of the world   Weight of the world   I dropped the weight of the world   Weight of the world.      I knew some people used to dance all night   But not me   I never knew if it was wrong or right   To be so free   I used to close my eyes   And try to hide from the light of love   Spent all my time with the darkness inside   But when I met you girl.      I dropped the weight of the world   Weight of the world   I dropped the weight of the world   Weight of the world.      I was alone for all of my life   I was alone for all of my life   I was alone for all of my life   I was alone for all of my life   Until you came my way   I dropped the weight of the world   Weight of the world   I dropped the weight of the world   Weight of the world.
