World is a common name for the whole of human civilization, specifically human experience, history, or the human condition in general, worldwide, i.e. anywhere on Earth.
In a philosophical context it may refer to: (1) the whole of the physical Universe, or (2) an ontological world (see world disclosure). In a theological context, world usually refers to the material or the profane sphere, as opposed to the celestial, spiritual, transcendent or sacred. The "end of the world" refers to scenarios of the final end of human history, often in religious contexts.
World history is commonly understood as spanning the major geopolitical developments of about five millennia, from the first civilizations to the present.
World population is the sum of all human populations at any time; similarly, world economy is the sum of the economies of all societies (all countries), especially in the context of globalization. Terms like world championship, gross world product, world flags etc. also imply the sum or combination of all current-day sovereign states.
You break the glass, try to hide your face
Recorded lines that just will not erase
And buried in your loss of innocence
You wonder if you'll find it again?
Was I there for the worst of all your pain?
And was I there when your blue skies ran away?
Was I there when the rains were flooding you off of your feet?
Those were my tears falling down for you, falling down for you
I'm the one that you've been looking for
I'm the one that you've been waiting for
I've had my eyes on you
Ever since you were born
I will love you after the rain falls down
I will love you after the sun goes out
I'll have my eyes on you
After the world is no more
Did I arrange the light of your first day?
Did I create the rhythm your heart makes?
Could you believe when your candle starts to fade?
I want to be the one that you believe could take it all away
Take your heart away
I'm the one that you've been looking for
I'm the one that you've been waiting for
I've had my eyes on you
Ever since you were born
I will love you after the rain falls down
I will love you after the sun goes out
I'll have my eyes on you
After the world is no more
Isn't my life a clear sign?
Since I have crossed over this chasm
To fill the space between me and you
And I will do it all over again
Just look for me, just wait for me
The one you've been looking for
The one you've been waiting for
You won't have to look anymore
I'm the one that you've been looking for
I'm the one that you've been waiting for
I've had my eyes on you
Ever since you were born
I will love you after the rain falls down
I will love you after the sun goes out
I'll have my eyes on you
After the world is no more
The one you've been looking for
