What Will the World Be Like
Navigating Life's Uncharted Waters: A Reflection Through Song
Lyrics
What will the world be like when you're on your own?
Questioning the state of the world when the listener becomes independent.
What will the world be like when you're almost grown?
Wondering about the world as the listener approaches adulthood.
What will the world be like when you pack your things,
Contemplating the world while preparing to leave and move away.
when you leave your home?
Reflecting on the act of departing from one's home.
What in the world will tomorrow bring?
Pondering the uncertainties of the future.
Will you be safe in the sweet arms of love?
Questioning the safety and comfort found in love and relationships.
Will you be true to yourself and the things you believe?
Asking about staying true to personal beliefs and values.
What will the world be like when you need a friend?
Wondering about the availability of friendship in times of need.
What will the world be like when you're on the mend?
Considering the world while recovering from difficulties.
What will the world be like when you go astray,
Thinking about straying from the right path and facing consequences.
and you slip and fall?
Reflecting on mistakes and setbacks.
How in the world will you find your way?
Questioning how to navigate challenges and find direction.
Will you find peace and forgiveness and joy?
Asking about finding peace, forgiveness, and happiness.
Will you have children yourself, and be worried like me?
Wondering about the listener's future as a parent and the worries it entails.
What will the world be like when you're on your own?
Repeating the earlier question about the state of the world when the listener is alone.
What will the world be like when you're almost grown?
Reiterating the query about the world as the listener approaches adulthood.
What will the world be like when you pack your things,
Revisiting thoughts about leaving home and moving away.
when you leave your home?
Repeating reflections on departing from one's home.
What in the world will tomorrow bring?
Reiterating contemplation about the uncertainties of the future.
What will the world be like?
Pondering the overall state of the world.
