The Wonder of You – Ray Peterson lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

When no one else can understand me
When everything I do is wrong
You give me love and consolation
You give me hope to carry on

And you try to show your love for me
In everything you do
That’s the wonder
The wonder of you (oh, wonder of you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

And when you smile, the world is brighter
You touch my hand, and I’m a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love to me is everything

And you’re always there to lend a hand
In all I try to do
That’s the wonder
The wonder of you (oh, wonder of you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I guess I’ll never know the reason why
You love me as you do
That’s the wonder
The wonder of you-
