Wonderful World

[Verse 1: David Sylvian] 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 the day And the joy that it brings Nearly sweeps her away [Verse 2: David Sylvian] It's a wonderful world As the buildings fall down And you quicken your step Till your feet leave the ground And you're soaring above All the sorrow below And your falling in love With those you don't know [Verse 3: David Sylvian] And your heart feels so wide And your heart feels 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 [Bridge: Stina Nordenstam] 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 [Verse 4: David Sylvian] It's a wonderful world It's a real crying shame Cause she's hurting herself In a violent way And there's people she knows That won't even try And their trapped in their lives Feeling terrified [Verse 5: David Sylvian] And it's in times like these That you 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 [Bridge: Stina Nordenstam] He's sleeping his troubles away He's finding it's too hard to bear I'm with him every step of the way I weep for him I weep for him now [Chorus: David Sylvian] It's a wonderful world And you take and you give And the sun fills the sky In the space where you live [Instrumental Outro]
