about

"One of the benefits of re-recording an album is the ability make a few lyrical changes here and there. This song gained a whole new verse, which allowed me to make more sense of the narrative (and remove a repeated verse). I always felt like the original version was the 'forgotten' track on the 2003 version. I enjoyed re-creating this one."

lyrics

YOUR WORLD TODAY

I've been around but I don't know much
I've seen plenty of faces but I haven't the touch
I gotta get around to something soon
Before they drag me down

I didn't like being down and out
So I found the free way and I covered some ground
I fell into the late night bus
And now I don't know where I am

Well it'll take a lot of time
To make it back home to you
Speaking out loud
Owning up to all the things I do
It's been a pretty good day in my world
I hope it's been a good day in your world today
In your world today
In your world today

There were years when I stopped to care
With my head in the clouds and my hands in the air
I was running on empty
I was running scared
That you were walking out on me

I didn't think I could do without
But I found a free space in a positive ground
I fell into the safe and sound
And now I sure know where I am

Now it takes a lot of bad news here to bring me down
But it was any old port in a storm
When the chips were down
It's been a pretty good day in my world
I hope it's been a good day in your world today
In your world today

I've been around but I don't know much
And now I don't know where I am today
In your world today

I'm just strolling through life
But I'm planning on hanging around again
I think of calling 'round
But I never know what to say
It's been a pretty good day in my world
I hope it's been a good day in your world today
In your world today

I've been around but I don't know much
And now I don't know where I am today
In your world today
Who's in your world today?

In your world today
In your world today
Who's in your world today?
