Let the Rest of the World Go By
Discovering Peace Beyond Life's Struggles
Lyrics
Is the struggle and strife we find in this life
Questioning the value of the struggles and challenges in life.
Really worth while, after all
Reflecting on whether it's all worth it in the end.
I've been wishing today I could just run away
Expressing a desire to escape from the difficulties of today.
Out where the west winds call
Longing to be in a place where the west winds beckon.
With someone like you, a pal good and true
Desiring the company of a loyal friend like the listener.
I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find
Wishing to leave everything behind and embark on a journey.
Some place that's known to god alone
Seeking a place known only to God, a hidden and tranquil spot.
Just a spot to call our own
Yearning for a personal and peaceful space to claim as their own.
We'll find perfect peace, where joys never cease
Anticipating finding absolute peace and unending joy.
Out there beneath a kindly sky
Imagining a serene life under a benevolent sky.
We'll build a sweet little nest somewhere in the west
Planning to build a cozy home in the western region.
And let the rest of the world go by
Choosing to disregard the rest of the chaotic world.
Is the future to hold just struggles for gold
Questioning if the future holds only material struggles.
While the real world waits outside
Suggesting that the real world is waiting beyond material pursuits.
Away out on the breast of the wonderful west
Referring to the vast and enchanting western landscape.
Across the great divide
Alluding to a significant separation or contrast in life.
With someone like you, a pal good and true
Expressing a desire for the companionship of a true friend.
I'd like to leave it all behind and go and find
Reiterating the wish to abandon the current life for a new journey.
Some place that's known to god alone
Seeking a place hidden from the knowledge of everyone except God.
Just a spot to call our own
Desiring a secluded and personal space to claim as their own.
We'll find perfect peace, where joys never cease
Anticipating finding unending peace and joy in this new haven.
Out there beneath a kindly sky
Imagining a life under a benevolent and comforting sky.
We'll build a sweet little nest somewhere in the west
Planning to build a cozy home in the western region, reiterating the idea.
And let the rest of the world go by
Choosing to let go of the troubles of the world and focus on personal bliss.
