Displaying signs of life From a bed of golden sound A new found revelation As freedom takes your hand Would you like to stay forever See the lonely people cry
Or stare into the limelight Whilst the helpless creatures die And then you tell me it's a wonderful world And then you tell me it's a wonderful world
Can I live through this deception Am I punishing myself I will crawl in your direction To the edge of the world Staring at the sunset The beauty of an amber sky In a second I start reliving What has happened and I question why And then you tell me it's a wonderful world And then you tell me it's a wonderful world
I can hardly wait, my watering eyes Life is bleeding me dry - I try You'll never believe it Put a warm smile on an ice cold face
It's a highlight of the day When tears are washed away By the rain drops in the sun-shine
Against the white wall stands A lonely shell of a man He cries with anger, but once again falls silent
Time to leave - time to go It tears your heart out mire than you'd know Then as the darkness takes the day A thousand people fade away
