World So Wide, Nowhere to Hide (From Your Heart) Songtext
von Jimmy Ruffin

In a world so wide
Is there no place to hide
From this hurting in my heart
That keeps tearing me apart?

As I look back over my shoulder
There′s emptiness everywhere (everywhere)
Here I stand a lonely man (lonely man)
'Cause I found out that she didn′t care

I'm on the run, struck down by fate (runnin', runnin′)
The deepest shadows, heartache′s way (heartache's way)
I need to find some quiet place (peace and quiet)
Where memories can′t be erased

In a world so wide
Is there no place to hide
From this hurting in my heart
That keeps tearing me apart?


It keeps on hurting (and it keeps on hurting)
I feel the burning (oh, I feel the burning)
Down in my heart (deep down in my heart)
Ooh, I feel it burning

Ooh-ooh, yeah, in a world, this world so wide
Is there no place to hide
From this hurting in my heart
That keeps tearing me apart?

Believing her words of love ever after (ever after)
Quickly led to my disaster (my disaster)
I gladly gave her my heart (my heart)
And in return, she tore it apart

Now my journey leaves a broken trail
So hard I tried but I always failed (always failed)
To shake her memory from my mind (from my mind)
But it grows stronger all the time

In a world so wide
Is there no place to hide
From this hurting in my heart
That keeps tearing me apart?


They say that it's time to defeat this pain
And the sun will shine after the rain
This pain I feel never goes away
And dark clouds hide my sunny day

In a world so wide
Is there no place to hide-
