Somewhere between awake and asleep, I heard a voice speak clearly to me,
It said, "Alive in the seed, carried on the wind - if you'll open your eyes love can begin."
What a wonderful world it would be,
Just to walk in the place where the sky meets the sea,
Where mountains are moved by the prayers of a child,
What a wonderful world it would be.
Measure the steps - let's go back to the gate,
Recover what's lost before it's too late,
Open your heart to the wandering poor,
Love winks her eye when the lost are restored.
What a wonderful world it would be,
Just to walk in the place where the sky meets the sea,
Where mountains are moved by the prayers of a child,
What a wonderful world it would be.
Over and over, and over again you've cried, you've cried,
Over and over, and over again we'll try, we'll try.
If you'll open your eyes love can begin.
What a wonderful world it would be,
Just to walk in the place where the sky meets the sea,
Where mountains are moved by the prayers of a child,
What a wonderful world, what a wonderful world,
A wonderful world it would be,
Just to walk in the place where the sky meets the sea,
Where mountains are moved by the prayers of a child,
What a wonderful world it would be.
