Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's a wonderful life
It's a wonderful life
Traversed in tears from the heavens
My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact
Set alight by echoes of pain 24/7, 24/7
[Verse 2]
I dream, I smile
I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile
I walk, I cry
[Verse 3]
You might not say that it's a wonderful world
And it's a wonderful life
And it's a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
[Verse 4]
But I won't complain
No, I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't complain, no, no
[Verse 5]
My mind is a mirror
A reflection only known to me
And for those who hate me
The more you hate me
The more you help me
And those who love me
The more you love me
The more you hurt me
And when I go to bed in the night
I see some children in the light
Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back
And although I don't understand my dreams
I know somewhere there's hope, there's hope, there's hope somewhere
There's hope
[Verse 6]
So I dream, I smile
I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile
I walk, I cry
[Verse 7]
You might not say that it's a wonderful world
And it's a wonderful life
And it's a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
[Verse 8]
But I won't complain
I won't complain
No, no
No, no, I won't complain
No, I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't, I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't, I won't complain
