Or as one nail by strength drives out another,
So the remembrance of my former love
Is by a newer object quite forgotten.

With new horizons to pursue
I'll chase them anywhere, there's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world
A whole new world
That's where we'll be
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase, a wondrous place
For you and me.
