about
Wonderful to Me is simply a love song. It speaks for its self.
lyrics
Verse1
I thought it would be easy
I’d give this sometime
everyone is asking
I keep saying I’m just fine
but my heart isn’t in this
my heart’s not even there
everything died
the moment you weren’t there
Chorus
I should have listened more carefully
when you said you’d break
how was I supposed to know
it was all a mistake
you’re everything
wonderful to me
Verse 2
give me the courage
I know now is the time
I am writing you this letter
I hope you don’t mind
it’s all of my worries
it’s all of my dreams
I’ll mail it tomorrow
I thought it would be easy
I’d give this sometime
everyone is asking
I keep saying I’m just fine
but my heart isn’t in this
my heart’s not even there
everything died
the moment you weren’t there
Chorus
I should have listened more carefully
when you said you’d break
how was I supposed to know
it was all a mistake
you’re everything
wonderful to me
Verse 2
give me the courage
I know now is the time
I am writing you this letter
I hope you don’t mind
it’s all of my worries
it’s all of my dreams
I’ll mail it tomorrow
