It's a wonderful world   And you take and you give   And the sun fills the sky   In the space where you live      It's a day full of dreams   It's a dream of a day   And the joy that it brings   Nearly sweeps her away      It's a wonderful world   As the buildings fall down   And you quicken your step   'til your feet leave the ground   And you're soaring above   All the sorrow below   And you're falling in love   With those you don't know      And your heart feels so wide   And your heart fills so strong   It was never a place   That you felt you belonged      It's a wonderful world   Full of wonderful things   And the people fall down   And abandon their dreams      (I hear him, he's talking out loud   Sometimes he whistles while walking   How could he know any better?   I weep for him, I weep for him now)      It's a wonderful world   It's a real crying shame   Cos she's hurting herself   In a violent way   And there's people she knows   That won't even try   And they're trapped in their lives   Feeling terrified   And it's in times like these   That she promised to call   But the scale of our love   Is diminished and small      It's a wonderful world   And she doesn't know why   She wakes up each day   And continues to cry      (He's sleeping his troubles away   He's finding it too hard to bear   I'm with him every step of the way   I weep for him, I weep for him now)      It's a wonderful world   And you take and you give   And the sun fills the sky
