Wonders lyrics

I learned to love

I learned to give

When I was little and all around me seemed to live

I learned to swim in the sea

To run across endless fields

Time and space was so unreal

You showed me a wonder in everything

You were the calming voice that spoke the truth

And I knew the day would turn to night

Every time you dimmed the light

And the moon dimmed my mind

Oh I was so proud

Of my new red-velvet gown

I learned to sing then I talked

I sang all day all those songs

I loved to fly on sunday's clouds

You picked me up after school

Because the boys were so rude

Until the day I hit back too

Oh how I cried that day

A pearl was hiding in my ear

Remember I was scared

Black panthers underneath my bed

You showed me the wonders of every spring

You were the calming voice that talked so wise

And I knew the day was close at hand

Every time you dimmed the light

And the moon dimmed my mind

Oh then the day would turn to night
