Everybody's wonderin' how this world will get around Now that we're all runnin' out of gas But me, I'm kinda happy that this world is slowin' down Seems to me we were movin' much too fast Now folks are gonna have to slow it down But that won't stop this world from goin' round Well I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of What if we were runnin' out of love? Now everybody's thinkin' that this world will fall apart If we ain't got no fuel to feed the flame What if we all lost the love we used to fill our hearts Seems to me life wouldn't be the same Now folks are gonna have to slow it down But that won't stop this world from goin' round Well I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of What if we were runnin' out of love? Now everybody's wonderin' just how cold it's gonna get And how they're gonna keep each other warm The simplest solution to the problem I've seen yet Is cuddle up with someone in your arms Now folks are gonna have to slow it down But that won't stop this world from goin' round Well I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of What if we were runnin' out of love?
