Used to want Taiwan and Mozambique
And Katmandu to lay right at my feet
I thought living on the Amazon would be real fine
You know I couldn't get to sleep till I made the world mine
But now I'm alright, yeah I've quenched my cares,
Can see what I need from my front porch stairs
Won't you join me tonight in my corner of the world
It's so nice in my corner of the world
I can watch the sand in the hourglass swirl
With you in my arms in my corner of the world
I used to want a mansion up on a hill
A guitar-shaped swimming pool to cure all my ills
Yeah I really thought the whole pie would be real nice
Who'd a thought I'd get full on just one slice
Yeah I stake my claim right here in my heart
All I need is you girl to set me apart
Won't you join me tonight in my corner of the world
It's so nice in my corner of the world
I can watch the sand in the hourglass swirl
With you in my arms in my corner of the world
