Lyrics

[00:36.41] It's a wonderful world
[00:39.32]
[00:40.27] And you take and you give
[00:42.67]
[00:44.28] And the sun fills the sky
[00:46.41]
[00:47.94] In the space where you live
[00:51.13] It's a day full of dreams
[00:54.44]
[00:55.54] It's a dream of a day
[00:57.98]
[00:59.41] And the joy that it brings
[01:01.96]
[01:03.08] Nearly sweeps her away
[01:06.22]
[01:06.75] It's a wonderful world
[01:09.59]
[01:10.65] As the buildings fall down
[01:13.08]
[01:14.04] And you quicken your step
[01:16.59]
[01:17.80] Til your feet leave the ground
[01:20.89]
[01:21.78] And you're soaring above
[01:24.69]
[01:25.86] All the sorrow below
[01:28.49]
[01:29.43] And you're falling in love
[01:32.13]
[01:33.82] With those you don't know
[01:36.87]
[01:44.57] And your heart feels so wide
[01:47.52]
[01:48.61] And your heart fills so strong
[01:51.32]
[01:52.57] It was never a place
[01:54.98]
[01:56.20] That you felt you belonged
[01:58.82]
[01:59.82] It's a wonderful world
[02:02.73]
[02:03.77] Full of wonderful things
[02:06.42]
[02:07.64] And the people fall down
[02:10.03]
[02:11.45] And abandon their dreams
[02:15.62]
[02:17.05] I hear him, he's talking out loud
[02:22.68]
[02:24.22] Sometimes he whistles while walking
[02:30.17]
[02:31.34] How could he know any better?
[02:37.70]
[02:39.35] I weep for him, I weep for him now
[02:46.25]
[03:00.45] It's a wonderful world
[03:03.46]
[03:04.50] It's a real crying shame
[03:07.16]
[03:08.48] Cos she's hurting herself
[03:11.06]
[03:12.12] In a violent way
[03:14.26]
[03:15.46] And there's people she knows
[03:18.71]
[03:19.57] That won't even try
[03:22.38]
[03:23.16] And they're trapped in their lives
[03:26.11]
[03:27.18] Feeling terrified
[03:30.62] And it's in times like these
[03:34.22]
[03:34.84] That she promised to call
[03:37.21]
[03:38.91] But the scale of our love
[03:41.18]
[03:42.47] Is diminished and small
[03:45.96] It's a wonderful world
[03:49.11]
[03:50.01] And she doesn't know why
[03:52.64]
[03:54.14] She wakes up each day
[03:56.65]
[03:57.74] And continues to cry
[04:00.96]
[04:03.30] He's sleeping his troubles away
[04:09.03]
[04:10.55] He's finding it too hard to bear
[04:16.77]
[04:18.03] I'm with him every step of the way
[04:23.65]
[04:25.73] I weep for him, I weep for him now
[04:31.16] It's a wonderful world
[04:34.10]
[04:35.58] And you take and you give
[04:37.67]
[04:39.48] And the sun fills the sky
[04:41.64]
[04:43.19] In the space where you live
[04:46.70]
