Lyrics
LIFE'S A WONDROUS THING
Caps and gowns, graduations sounds.
Friends that day swore they'd never go away. Still they couldn't stay.
Interview on corporate avenue.
First resume. Nervous question, "What's it pay?" Still work every day.
Gone in fleeting glory like tulips every spring.
Feel the magic of each moment. Life's a wondrous thing. Life's a wondrous thing.
There you were, white lace satin pure.
Wedding day, caught your heart, toss the bouquet. Still married today.
Little one, life has just begun.
Mama's all aglow, and your soul's an embryo. We both love you so.
Chorus
Off to school, learn the golden rule.
You're afraid of new kids in the first grade. Still they let you play.
Drivers Ed. and curfews we both dread.
Homecoming game, your first kiss and last nickname. Soon graduation came.
Chorus
Caps and gowns, world keeps spinning 'round.
Now I see what my parents saw for me. Still no guarantees.
Chorus
