8 o'clock on Tuesday morning, I got it yesterday She said she would send a letter, I haven't asked for days I should have guessed that it was over, she always stayed away My answer was in the letter, to see what she had to say I had to pull myself together, I had to be so strong So I waited for the postman, and it was in love Before I opened up the letter and had to read about number one There's a whole new world out there, there's a whole new world There's a brand new life out there, and I want you to know that The chains of love I lifted from today, I miss you as I say There's a whole new world out there Had to get in touch with her to see what I could do My heart missed a beat when she confirmed that it was true A sudden, lonely, desperate feeling loomed around my head She told the other new friend how they had planned to wed She had been with him before, when his third baby born So I hoped for a moment, and then it got through That if it's happened to me, it could just as easily happen to you There's a whole new world out there, there's a whole new world There's a brand new life out there, and I want you to know that The chains of love I lifted from today, I miss you as I say There's a whole new world out there There's a whole new world out there, there's a whole new world There's a brand new life out there, there's a whole new world There's a whole new world out there, there's a whole new world There's a whole new world out there, there's a whole new world There's a whole new world out there
