Wonderful Thing -

I got lucky

I thought that it would never happen to me

Things I said would never happen

have happened to me

Things I thought were meant for better men than I

Can’t you see

I’m just lucky as, lucky as a man can be

Now I’ve got it, I’ve got to leave it all behind

Now I’ve done it, I’ve got to go and do some time

You’ve got pretty eyes

Colours that I just can’t describe

I know I know

You’ve got everything that money cannot buy

But I’ve just got to lie — the price is too high

It’s a wonderful thing, but I’ve got to leave

And it’s killing me holding this picture of you

It’s a terrible thing — it’s eating me slowly

It’s telling me you’re such a wonderful thing

Yeah it’s telling me you’re such a wonderful wonderful thing

You’ve got pretty eyes

Colours that I just can’t describe

I know I know

You’ve got everything that money cannot buy

But I’ve just got to lie — the price is too high

It’s a wonderful thing, but I’ve got to leave

And it’s killing me holding this picture of you

It’s a terrible thing — it’s eating me slowly

It’s telling me you’re such a wonderful thing

Yeah it’s telling me you’re such a wonderful wonderful thing

It’s telling me you’re such a wonderful thing

And it’s killing me holding this picture of you

It’s a terrible thing — it’s eating me slowly

It’s telling me you’re such a wonderful thing

Yeah it’s telling me you’re such a wonderful wonderful thing
