Could some one identify this song?

Oh, baby, it's a wide world
It's hard to get back, just upon a smile
Oh, baby, it's a wide world
I'll remember you like a child girl

Lyrics would be great, too.

Thanks,

it was done by Cat Stevens, but you may have also heard the reggae
version by Maxi Priest

Cat Stevens
Wild World
Now that I’ve lost everything to you
You say you want to start something new
And it’s breaking my heart you’re leaving
Baby, I’m grieving
But if you want to leave, take good care
Hope you have a lot of nice things to wear
But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there
Oh Baby, baby, it’s a wild world
I’ll always remember you like a child, girl
You know I’ve seen a lot of what the world can do
And it’s breaking my heart in two
‘Cause I never want to see you sad, girl
Don’t be a bad girl
But if you want to leave, take good care
Hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there’s a lot of bad and beware
Oh Baby, baby it’s a wild world
It’s hard to get by just upon a smile
Ooh Baby, Baby, it’s a wild world
And I’ll always remember you like a child, girl

Wild World

Now that I've lost everything to you, you say you
want to start something new, and it's breaking
my heart you're leaving, baby I'm grieving:
But if you wanna leave take good care, hope you
have a lot nice things to wear, but then a lot
of nice things turn bad out there.

Oh baby, baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile.
Oh baby, baby it's a wild world,
I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do,
and it's breaking my heart in two, 'cause I never want
to see you sad girl, don't be a bad girl, but if you
want to leave take good care, hope you make a lot of
nice friends out there, but just remember there's a
lot of bad and beware, beware,

Oh baby, baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile.
Oh baby, baby it's a wild world,
I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

Baby I love you, but if you wanna leave take good
care, hope you make a lot of nice friends out there,
but just remember there's a lot of bad, and beware, beware,

Oh baby, baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile.
Oh baby, baby it's a wild world,
I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

The song is "Wild World" by Cat Stevens. It's also
been recorded by Mr.Big. The lyrics are here:

WILD WORLD
(Cat Stevens)


LA...LA...LA...LA...LA
NOW THAT I'VE LOST EVERYTHING TO YOU
YOU SAY YOU WANT TO START SOMETHING NEW
AND IT'S BREAKING MY HEART YOU'RE LEAVING
BABY I'M GRIEVING
BUT IF YOU WANNA LEAVE TAKE GOOD CARE
HOPE YOU HAVE ALOT OF NICE THINGS TO WEAR
BUT THEN ALOT OF NICE THINGS TURN BAD OUT THERE

OH BABY, BABY, IT'S A WILD WORLD
IT'S HARD TO GET BY JUST UPON A SMILE
OH BABY, BABY, IT'S A WILD WORLD
I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU LIKE A CHILD GIRL

YOU KNOW I'VE SEEN A LOT OF WHAT THE WORLD CAN DO
AND IT'S BREAKING MY HEART IN TWO
COZ I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU SAD GIRL
DON'T BE A BAD GIRL

BUT IF YOU WANNA LEAVE TAKE GOOD CARE
HOPE YOU MAKE A LOT OF NICE FRIENDS OUT THERE
JUST REMEMBER THERE'S A LOT OF BAD AND BEWARE

CHORUS

LA...LA...LA...LA...LA...BABY I LOVE YOU.

Sorry about the capitals... I just didn't want to
rewrite the damn thing... :)

that is 'Wild World' by Cat Stevens. I personally think he ripped the
song off from somebody else - it is so unlike, melodically &
harmonically, anything else he wrote.
