The Winner Songwords to the Eurovision song 'Weve got the World'
We've Got The World
She stands under moon light
She touches her hair
Her smile lights emotions
And her love fills the air

Bridge
And I know you're my every tomorrow
And I know that you'll always be there

Chorus
We've got the world tonight (Tonight)
Lets hold on together
And we've got our love thats right (thats right)
so open your heart
Coz we've got tonight

We move even closer
With hope in our eyes
Coz love is the answer
To the hurt and the lies

Bridge
Chorus x2

Ask me why
The sun and the moon go round
Ask me why
My feet never touch the ground
Tell the truth
You take my breath away
We've got the world tonight

Chorus til fade
