Lyrics
You don't ever have to wonder
If you're still alive...
And you don't have to fear you're fading
Til you disappear in time
'Cause I'm as certain as the sunrise
That you're beating in my chest
And you are swimming in my eyes,
Breathing every breath
I know/feel your wonder, woman
I live I laugh
I sing I cry I love
I thank you for the wonder-filled life
You are my wonder,
You are my wonder, woman
You are my wonder, woman
(Thank you for the wonderful life)
You are the ocean
And you are the sand
And you are living here inside me
You are... I am...
