"The World Is Stone" is a single by American singer, Cyndi Lauper. This English version is based on the French song "Le Monde est stone" (1978), which was part of the Starmania musical and has been most notably associated with Fabienne Thibeault, Marie Carmen and Céline Dion.

The song was composed by Michel Berger. The original French lyrics were written by Luc Plamondon, and the song was adapted to English by Tim Rice. It's important to note that the English lyrics are not a direct translation and are completely different than "Le Monde est stone". It is a ballad from the Tycoon soundtrack. On the single the B-side was a song entitled, "You Have to Learn to Live Alone", which was also featured on this soundtrack.

Although this single was not released in U.S., it was a hit in several countries (number 15 in UK) but especially in France where it climbed to number two, stayed for three months in the top five and totaled 31 weeks in the top 50.
