The World I Used To Know
Composer(s): Rod McKuen
Performer(s): The Kingston Trio
and multiple other artists



Some day some old familiar rain will come along and know my name
And then my shelter will be gone and I'll have to move along
But 'till I do I'll stay awhile and track the hidden country of your smile

Some day the man I use to be will come along and call on me
And then because I'm just a man, you'll find my feet are made of sand
But 'till that time I'll tell you lies and charter hidden bound'ries of your eyes

Some day the world I use to know will come along and bid me go
Then I'll be leaving you behind for love is just a state of mind
But 'till that day I'll be your man and love away your troubles if I can
And 'till that day I'll be your man and love away your troubles if I can
