A new day dawns
Heads are in the sand
She’s in my thoughts
But I’m far away
Yeah I’ve been caught
Chasing some long lost plans
It would be easy to get away
Then I reach the end
No hope in sight
There’s no tomorrow
But there’s still a chance tonight - hey now

I guess I have to save the world
Nothing can happen to the girl
But everything that matters to her
Means nothing to me
I don’t know the reason
Maybe just getting even
I don’t know
A way to save it all

Alone again
Thinking of presidents
Who came and went
Along the way
Some made a dent
In what we think and feel
But few were meant 
To save the day

Well I’ll be strong
Stronger than they say
Reach beyond my insight
And just show’em all the way - hey now

I guess I have to save the world
Nothing can happen to the girl 
But everything that matters to her
Means nothing to me
I don’t know, I’m thinking
I might end up like Lincoln
I don’t know a way to save it all

But if I didn’t have a heart
Then she wouldn’t know my name
And if I never played a part
Then I wouldn’t be to blame - hey now, hey now

Then I reach the end
In comes the light
Got to be some reason
Why I stay up half the night - hey now

I guess I have to save the world
Nothing can happen to the girl
Why do the things that matter to her
Mean nothing to me

Well I guess I have to save the world
Nothing can happen to the girl
If anything should happen to her
There would be nothing for me 
I don’t know, I’m certain
Would be the final curtain, but
I don’t know a way to save it all
