When you're feeling all alone

Just pick up the telephone

Wherever you are, you are home

It's a big world, it's a small world

Jokes for laughing, tears to cry

Babies born and old folks die

Where on earth don't that apply

It's a big world, it's a small world

It's a big world, it's a small world

It's a weird, wild, wide-open, wonderful world

And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same

'Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways

Every single lonely heart

Thinks they're the only one in the dark

But somewhere someone's wishing on the same star

It's a big world, it's a small world

It's a big world, it's a small world

It's a weird, wild, wide-open, wonderful world

And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same

'Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways

No matter where you're standing

We all want the same thing

Peace and love and understanding

It's a big world, it's a small world

It's a big world, it's a small world

It's a weird, wild, wide-open, wonderful world

And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same

'Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways

And we'll always think we're different and we'll always be the same

'Cause we're going one direction in a million different ways
