  • Just say the word, we'll take on the world

    I can see, see the pain in your eyes
    Oh, believe, believe me and I have tried
    No, I won't, I won't pretend to know what you've been through
    You should've known, I wish it was me, not you

    And just say the word, we'll take on the world
    And just say you're hurt, we'll face the worst
    Nobody knows you, the way that I know you
    Look in my eyes, I will never desert you
    And just say the word, we'll take on the world

    And it's the fights, and the fight of our lives
    You and I, we were made to thrive
    And I am your future, I am your past
    Never forget we were built to last
    Stepping out of the shadows, into my life
    Silence the voices that haunt you inside

    And just say the word, we'll take on the world
    And just say you're hurt, we'll face the worst
    Nobody knows you, the way that I know you
    Look in my eyes, I will never desert you
    And just say the word, we'll take on the world
    We'll take on the world, oh

    (Oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh-oh)

    We'll fight, we'll crawl (oh-whoa-oh, oh-whoa-oh-oh-oh)
    We'll face it all

    And just say the word, we'll take on the world
    And nobody knows you, the way that I know you
    Look in my eyes, I will never desert you
    And just say the word (just say the word)
    We'll take on the world, we'll take on the world Writer/s: Christopher James Miller, Daniel David Flint, Iain Denis Archer, Josh James Alphonse Franceschi, Matthew James Barnes, Max Michael Helyer
