Around the Sun by R.E.M. Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I want the sun to shine on me
I want the truth to set me free
I wish the followers would lead
With a voice so strong it could knock me to my knees

[Chorus]
Hold on world 'cause you don't know what's coming
Hold on world 'cause I'm not jumping off
Hold onto this boy a little longer
Take another trip around the sun

[Verse 2]
If I jumped into the ocean to believe
If I climbed a mountain would I have to reach?
Do I even dare to speak, to dream, believe?
Give me a voice so strong I can question what I have seen

[Chorus]
Hold on world 'cause you don't know what's coming
Hold on world 'cause I'm not jumping off
Hold onto this boy a little longer
Take another trip around the sun
[Outro]
Around the sun
Around the sun
Around the sun
Let my dreams set me free
Believe, believe
Now now now now now now
