fix the world up for you Lyrics
I can tell you now
When I'm here to listen
To what I've got to say
All my words unplanned
Just like us they are waiting
To come together
I don't know if we're ready to take our train
Oh I, oh I, I'm gonna fix this world up for you
I'll try, I'll try to build it all around you
You'll never gonna have to be alone
You'll always know you got someone
To fix the world up for you
Well I've been out getting wrong
More times that I get it right
That I won't even realize it
But I've been doing all I can
To stop your falling
Even now I'm holding my breath for you
But you don't know, you don't know
That I'm ready to hold you now, hold you now
Oh I, oh I, I'm gonna fix this world up for you
I'll try, I'll try to build it all around you
You'll never gonna have to be alone
Yeah You'll always know you got someone
To fix the world up for you
yeah when the the world comes crashing down
i'll be there, yes you know
Gonna fix the world up, up for you
Gonna fix the world up, up for you
Gonna fix the world up, up for you
(i'll do, i'll do, i will wanna do)
When I'm here to listen
To what I've got to say
All my words unplanned
Just like us they are waiting
To come together
I don't know if we're ready to take our train
I'll try, I'll try to build it all around you
You'll never gonna have to be alone
You'll always know you got someone
To fix the world up for you
More times that I get it right
That I won't even realize it
But I've been doing all I can
To stop your falling
Even now I'm holding my breath for you
That I'm ready to hold you now, hold you now
I'll try, I'll try to build it all around you
You'll never gonna have to be alone
Yeah You'll always know you got someone
To fix the world up for you
i'll be there, yes you know
Gonna fix the world up, up for you
Gonna fix the world up, up for you
Gonna fix the world up, up for you

i heard him say in an interview that he wrote it for his daughter. it's such a beautiful song with an even more beautiful meaning.
I think some of the words are wrong... i could be wrong myself, but i think these are the lyrics:
I can tell you now You're not... here to listen To what I've got to say All my words unplanned Just like us they are waiting To come together I don't know if we're ready to take our train
Well I'll bet I'll get it wrong More times than I'll get it right That I won't even realize it But I've been doing all I can To stop your falling Even now I'm holding my breath for you
ANYWAY.... i LOOOVE this song!! its one of my favorites on his new album!
This is such an amazing song!! I love the soulful feel of it and James' voice is amazing....
I love the whole theme of trying to make the world a better place just to please one person. And I like the idea of being willing to change your whole life just to be worthy of the love of a certain someone.
Gorgeous.
Sweet song, I wonder how long it will be before his daughter will even understand it.
The correct lyrics should be:
I can't tell you now You're not here to listen to what I've got to say All my words unplanned Just like us they are waiting to come together I don't know if we're ready to take our chance
But I, oh, I, I'm gonna fix this world up for you I'll try, try to build it all around you You're never gonna have to be alone Yeah, you'll always know you've got someone To fix the world up for you
Well I bet I'll get it wrong More times than I'll get it right And I won't even realise it, no But I'll be doing all I can To stop you falling Even now I'm holding my breath for you
But you don't know, you don't know That I’m ready to hold you now, hold you now
Oh but I, oh I, I'm gonna fix this world up for you I'll try, try to build it all around you You're never gonna have to be alone Yeah, you'll always know you've got someone To fix the world up for you
When the world comes crashing down I'll be there, yes, you know I will
Gonna fix the world up, up for you Gonna fix the world up, up for you Gonna fix the world up, up for you Gonna fix the world up, up for you Gonna fix the world up, when it all comes crashing down
