The Born to Kills - Whole Wide World Lyrics

When I was a young boy, my mama said to me
"There's only one girl in the world for you, but she probably lives in Tahiti"
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world just to find her, yeah
Or maybe she's in the Bahamas where the Caribbean Sea is blue
Weeping in a tropical moonlit night because nobody's told her about you

I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her

Why am I hanging around in the rain out here trying to pick up a girl
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears when there's girls all over the world
Well is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere underneath the tropical sun
Pining away in a heatwave there hoping that I won't be long
I should be lying on that sun-soaked beach with her, caressing her warm brown skin
And then in a year, or maybe not quite, we'll be sharing the same next of kin

I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her

I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world, I'd go the whole wide world to find out where they hide her
Hey yeah
