Wonder (5:27)
APPEARS ON:
Kid Ghosts (2012)
A foot thrown over a Continental wall
A borrowed shoulder and this began it all
Never listened but you knew it all along
Through a land of stop signs round the corner from a fall
It’s a wonder to me why you’re so blue
When all this heaven’s right here for you
I know that it hurts sometimes
When the moonlight licks you by surprise
But I could never be cruel to you
Was it growing up wild in the outer spheres?
Or summering on the cyanide shore?
Something tricked you away
But you don’t have to trick me to stay
It’s a wonder to me why you’re so blue
When all this heaven’s right here for you
I know that it hurts sometimes
When the moonlight licks you by surprise
But I could never be cruel to you
Your idiosyncrasies are like melodies- like little wings
Get caught in the power lines every time you try to fly
And as i’m sifting through these memories
Sharp dangerous things
Don’t ever stop to ask me why
It’s a wonder to me why you’re so blue
When all this heaven’s right here for you
I know that it hurts sometimes
When the moonlight licks you by surprise
But i could never be cruel to you
It’s a wonder to me why you’re so blue
When all this heaven’s right here for you
I know that it hurts sometimes
When the moonlight licks you by surprise
But i could never be cruel to you
(It’s a wonder to me)
(It’s a wonder to me)
