The World Kept Turning Anyway (Alt 1)
TitanChord
The morning came without you
Like it didn’t understand
The coffee still kept steaming
In the same old cup and hand
A truck rolled down the highway
A dog barked far away
And I stood there in the kitchen
While the world began its day
Funny how the sun still rises
After hearts fall down
The world kept turning anyway
The sky still found its blue
The river kept on moving
Like it never carried you
The town lights came on Friday
Like nothing slipped away
But everything inside me
Stopped that day
The wheat still bends in summer
The snow still finds the ground
Kids still laugh in playgrounds
Trains still pass through town
The clock still hits the hours
The moon still climbs the hill
But the place you used to stand in
Is somehow standing still
A man can lose the sunlight
Even while it shines
The world kept turning anyway
The sky still found its blue
The river kept on moving
Like it never carried you
The town lights came on Friday
Like nothing slipped away
But everything inside me
Stopped that day
The old men say that living
Is a promise you must keep
Even when the road gets quiet
Even when you weep
So I walk into tomorrow
Though my heart still stays
In the moment that the world
Turned away
The world kept turning anyway
The seasons kept their pace
But every mile I travel
Still carries your face
And if time keeps moving forward
Like the preachers always say
I’ll meet you where the road stops
One day
Timing is estimated — lines are spaced evenly across the track.

Lyrics
The morning came without you Like it didn’t understand The coffee still kept steaming In the same old cup and hand A truck rolled down the highway A dog barked far away And I stood there in the kitchen While the world began its day
Funny how the sun still rises After hearts fall down
The world kept turning anyway The sky still found its blue The river kept on moving Like it never carried you The town lights came on Friday Like nothing slipped away But everything inside me Stopped that day
The wheat still bends in summer The snow still finds the ground Kids still laugh in playgrounds Trains still pass through town The clock still hits the hours The moon still climbs the hill But the place you used to stand in Is somehow standing still
A man can lose the sunlight Even while it shines
The world kept turning anyway The sky still found its blue The river kept on moving Like it never carried you The town lights came on Friday Like nothing slipped away But everything inside me Stopped that day
The old men say that living Is a promise you must keep Even when the road gets quiet Even when you weep So I walk into tomorrow Though my heart still stays In the moment that the world Turned away
The world kept turning anyway The seasons kept their pace But every mile I travel Still carries your face And if time keeps moving forward Like the preachers always say I’ll meet you where the road stops One day
