Ferry, Bryan - As The World Turns Lyrics






There's a place in my heart
All broken and still
Where I may wander alone.
At the end of the day
As the world turns
I turn to thoughts of home
Though you're far away I imagine
How you would smile at this romance
And sure enough


As the world turns
And so to games of chance.
Take my part in this play
You're dealing me words I never could use
That strange beginning has no ending
When curtain falls we both lose
Though we're far apart on this old carousel
The ups and downs we share
Just remember surely as the world turns
In dreams I will be there by your side.

Ferry, Bryan As The World Turns Comments
  1. G.... C....

    I remember singing this, to the best of my limited ability, to a girlfriend in 1976. It still resonates emotionally with me today. I even made a portrait of my wife in 1980 with the same title. It still hangs in our lounge today... The World Still Turning.

    ❤️❤️❤️

  3. M.... S....

    The curtain falls, we both lose ..

  4. c.... r....

    This is one of my favourite all time songs, hauntingly beautiful, I love it.

  5. B.... V....

    Most beautiful song..When b sides existed and a rare occurance when a song was better than the A side,the classic "This is tomorrow".. how freaky is that? bring back the 70s haha.

  6. F.... P....

    You can download this on soundcloud. Here's the link https://soundcloud.com/pmmsm/bryan-ferry-as-the-world-turns

    great song - only recently realised the guitar bit was Fripp, probably recorded around the time he was on Heroes. Wondering how he came to be on it

    P.... T....

    +PeteWorld2010 i somewhere read that Ferry once did audition for fripp or king crimson and this was kind of a gesture by fripp

    P.... T....

    +Roxymovies thanks!  Yes, Ferry auditioned for KC around '70/'71 before Roxy got going. Elton John was rejected by Fripp too before that!

  8. T.... ....

    This is a track from 1977.
    The B side of "This is Tomorrow Calling"
    Great track.
    Reflective and a little melancholy.

  9. S.... G....

    This song is undertated would love to see bryan oo tis on his autum e tour in RAH

  10. J.... S....

    i think jobson also wrote she sells on siren

    J.... S....

    Co-written with Ferry.

  11. J.... S....

    now you mention fripp it realy sounds like fripp, that's the only fripp/ferry caloberation

  12. M.... G....

    Rare one thanks for uploading.

  13. x.... ....

    Have you heard "Strange Delight"? That's a nice song..

  14. b.... ....

    this song is becoming rarer by the month.....i bought it on 7 inch vinyl about a year ago as the b side of this is tomorrow.......the same is now changing hands for £10 plus......beautiful song tho.

  15. C.... T....

    Met him, got his autograph and now its on my left shoulder!! He was so charming and handsome... Oh Yeah...... x

  16. s.... ....

    If this song had been included on In your Mind the album would have been perfect. What a waste to keep it exclusive as a B-side (apart from the hard-to-get Japanese Mamouna EP).
    Every other track has been rereleased on one of the umteenth greatest hits collections.

  17. Q.... ....

    mesmerising intro, gets me every time. brilliant song!

  18. V.... C....

    Never met him, I 'll never forget him...

  19. s.... ....

    Hauntingly beautiful!

  20. T.... ....

    Spring 1977.

  21. B.... S....

    I have been searching for this track for years without success thanks so much

  22. J.... ....

    A great song. Takes me back. Better than the A side. Wow...

  23. D.... C....

    The original recording was in stereo. (I have a crackling copy of the 7" single). That's Robert Fripp on guitar. And of course the music and keyboards are by Eddie Jobson. I wish Eddie would write more music. When he was good he was brilliant.

  24. m.... o....

    I bought "This Is Tomorrow" when it came out many moons ago. I played the B side more than the A. Thank you for putting it back on utube.

  25. x.... ....

    @Prospro8 I don't know the answer to that perhaps someone else will, it seems unlikely to me though.

  26. P.... ....

    Am I right in thinking that this song was only ever issued as a mono track? Somebody told me that.

  27. R.... ....

    Brilliant. Was Jobson who got me into Roxy with his wierd UFO sound at the beginning of Street Life! Never quite thought any reunions have been complete without him

  28. C.... C....

    My copy of this is tomorrow melted when i left it on the back shelf of my car one summers day. i thought id never hear it again. it is a masterpiece. thank you.

  29. x.... ....

    @ferrari801 wow :)

  30. b.... ....

    Brilliant song, I bought the 'This is tomorrow' single back in 77 I think it was. Listened to this as much as the A side.

  31. b.... ....

    my all time favourite song......i noticed that ur download had been deleted from youtube a few months ago .......its only available as a b side 7 inch or on mamouna ep..(which ebay want a fortune for)......pleased its back on...thanks

  32. x.... ....

    @Polyphemus47 I'm happy to be of service! :D

  33. B.... M....

    !!! Thank you SO much! I've been trying to find this favorite song for many years.

  34. p.... w....

  35. x.... ....

  36. p.... w....

    Hey dude-any chance i could download this from you as the record company are so useless?

  37. E.... S....

    Thank you for posting this.I absolutely LOVE Bryan & Everything that comes out of his mouth & mind<3

    E.... S....

    E.... S....

    @James Langton Even the Japanese "Mamouna" Ep?!! Lucky lucky man! Wonder how much ebay are asking for a copy 🤔!
    I simply must have this song... Off to have a look. Every time I think I have everything of Bryan's and Roxy, I stumble over something else 🤣!!!
    The man is incorrigible 😎
