[Verse 1]
Moving forward using all my breath
Making love to you was never second best
I saw the world crashing all around your face
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace

[Chorus]
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
(I'll stop the world)
I'll stop the world and melt with you

[Verse 2]
Dream of better lives the kind which never hate
(You should know better)
Dropped in the state of imaginary grace
(You should know why)
I made a pilgrimage to save this human race
(You should know better)
Never comprehending the race had long gone by

[Chorus]
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
(I'll stop the world)
I'll stop the world and melt with you

[Bridge]
The future's open, open wide

[Chorus]
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen some changes but it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
(I'll stop the world)
I'll stop the world and melt with you
