WHEN WORLD'S COLLIDE / © 2021 James Barton
From the Boxes, Barrels & Rust CD
When worlds collide, it's a mighty force
Like a carnival ride on a crazy horse
When worlds collide, what is isn’t
And your distant past meets your birthday present
Surprise surprise, and how do you do
I’m the honored guest without a clue
But it’s a grand soiree, and a bold endeavor
When your next of kin greet your friends forever
A little white lie never hurt no one
Who knew treachery could be so much fun
Surprise surprise, you truly fooled me
Everybody knew except yours truly
So butter me up and call me a biscuit
If I blinked my eyes I probably’d missed it
I tell you from the heart, and bona fide
You caught a lucky break when your worlds collide
