|
It's a wonderful world |
|
And you take and you give |
|
And the sun fills the sky |
|
In the space where you live |
|
It's a day full of dreams |
|
It's a dream of a day |
|
And the joy that it brings |
|
Nearly sweeps her away |
|
It's a wonderful world |
|
As the buildings fall down |
|
And you quicken your step |
|
'til your feet leave the ground |
|
And you're soaring above |
|
All the sorrow below |
|
And you're falling in love |
|
With those you don't know |
|
And your heart feels so wide |
|
And your heart fills so strong |
|
It was never a place |
|
That you felt you belonged |
|
It's a wonderful world |
|
Full of wonderful things |
|
And the people fall down |
|
And abandon their dreams |
|
(I hear him, he's talking out loud |
|
Sometimes he whistles while walking |
|
How could he know any better? |
|
I weep for him, I weep for him now) |
|
It's a wonderful world |
|
It's a real crying shame |
|
Cos she's hurting herself |
|
In a violent way |
|
And there's people she knows |
|
That won't even try |
|
And they're trapped in their lives |
|
Feeling terrified |
|
And it's in times like these |
|
That she promised to call |
|
But the scale of our love |
|
Is diminished and small |
|
It's a wonderful world |
|
And she doesn't know why |
|
She wakes up each day |
|
And continues to cry |
|
(He's sleeping his troubles away |
|
He's finding it too hard to bear |
|
I'm with him every step of the way |
|
I weep for him, I weep for him now) |
|
It's a wonderful world |
|
And you take and you give |
|
And the sun fills the sky |
|
In the space where you live |
