Let's face it, probably about 90% of songs written around the world are probably love songs of some sort or another. I'd say that those songs could then be broken down further into themes of (a) 'I want to love you', (b) 'I love you' and (c) 'I loved you'.
For example, Eddie Cochran's 'Something Else' would be (a) <"...that can't stop me from a-thinkin' to myself, she's sure fine lookin' man, she's something else">, The Beatles' 'Don't Let Me Down' would be (b) <"I'm in love for the first time. Don't you know it's gonna last..."> and Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive' would be (c) <"At first I was afraid I was petrified. Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side...">.
'World Under My Feet' would fall into the (a) category. It was written during one of those partnerless times, and is about the search for 'the one', that special somebody that we all want to find and how difficult it can be to find them. It was also an attempt to write in both the third person (for the verses) and the first person (for the chorus), unable to choose whether the song should be 'about someone else' or autobiographical.
Maybe it was a bit of both...
The song was recorded with The Zamora and can be downloaded here.

He's been away for such a long time,
Delivering shivers down her spine.
He's felt the world under his feet,
But without her by his side he still feels incomplete.
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La
I'll be all you want if you want me to be.
You can take your pick if you want to be me.
I'll be all you want if you want me to be.
You can take your pick if you want to be me.
He doesn't know where to find her,
Although he's searched both near and far.
But he'll have won the game and claimed his prize,
The first time that they look into each other's eyes, now.
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La
I'll be all you want if you want me to be.
You can take your pick if you want to be me.
I'll be all you want if you want me to be.
You can take your pick if you want to be me.
