Night is as dark as you feel it ought to be
Time is as fast as the slowest thing
Life is only
[Chorus]
Wonder Boy, Wonder Boy
Everybody's looking for the sun

Wonder Boy
[Chorus]
Everybody's looking for the sun
People strain their eyes to see
But I see you and you see me
And ain't that wonder?
[Verse 4]
Wonder Boy, some mother's son
Turn your sorrow into wonder
Dream alone, go have your fun
[Outro]
Life is only, life is only
Life is only
