Wondrous Thing

The moment you came
The stars didn’t sing your name
And the heavens didn’t shed their skin
Smallest of things
Bravest of offerings
The way that a love begins
They’re gonna try to break it Try to make you forsake it oh Leave it in the dark
They’ll say there’s nothing in it Make you a sleepless cynic oh But if you feel its mark
Just raise it on high
Don’t let them tell you their lies
Oh love is a wondrous thing.
A hopeless disguise
Hiding behind your eyes
And a thousand points of view
It lands like a fist
Whoever the optimist
Whoever the ingénue
I know the havoc it wreaks
I’ve heard the tongues that it speaks oh It will not be shamed
But it is a beautiful bruise
You know you’ve got nothing to loose oh If it calls your name
Just raise it on high
Don’t let the light pass you by Oh love is a wondrous thing.
People often talk about it So many live their lives without it Oh you know it’s true
But I tell you if you find it You’ll bless the devils who designed it Oh I say to you.
Just raise it on high
Don’t let the light pass you by Oh love is a wonderous thing
Yeah love is a wonderous thing.
