Natalie Merchant "Wonder" lyrics

Wonder

Doctors have come from distant citiesJust to see meStand over my bed they're disbelievingWhat they're seeing

They say, I must be one of the wondersOf God's own creationAnd as far as they see they can offerNo explanation

Newspapers ask such intimate questionsThey want confessionsThey turn to my head, they try to steal the gloryOf my story

They say, I must be one of the wondersOf God's own creationAnd as far as they see they can offerNo explanation

I believeFate, fate smiled and and destinyLaughed as she came to my cradle"Know this child will be able"

And laughed as my body she lifted"Know this child will be giftedWith love, with patience and with faithShe'll make her way, make her way"

People see me, I'm a challengeTo your balance, I'm over your headsHow I confound youAnd astound you

To know and I must be one of the wondersOf God's own creationAnd as far as you see you can offerNo explanation

I believeFate, fate smiled and and destinyAnd as she came to my cradle"Know this child will be able"And laughed as my body she lifted"Know this child will be gifted"

And laughed as she came to my mother"Know this child will not sufferWith love, with patience and with faithShe'll make her way, make her wayMake her way, make her way"
