When you're feeling all alone Just pick up the telephone Wherever you are, you are home It's a big world, it's a small world Jokes for laughing, tears to cry Babies born and old folks die Where on earth don't that apply It's a big world, it's a small world It's a big world, it's a small world It's a weird, wild, wide-open, wonderful world And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways Every single lonely heart Thinks they're the only one in the dark But somewhere someone's wishing on the same star It's a big world, it's a small world It's a big world, it's a small world It's a weird, wild, wide-open, wonderful world And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways No matter where you're standing We all want the same thing Peace and love and understanding It's a big world, it's a small world It's a big world, it's a small world It's a weird, wild, wide-open, wonderful world And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways
