Lyrics
We sit back, relax and wait,
Nothing to worry about, nothing to hate,
And I wonder...have I ever been here before.
'Cause you look familiar, so bright and reformed,
yeah I say you look, like you never been heard before,
And I wonder...can you ever really, fully, comprehend love?
And we set, the middle, we set the middle,
Can you see my face, can you hear the name, that I call to you love?
Yeah, we set our goals...set 'em all upon the wall and one by one yeah, we watch them fall,
Impress your friends, with Smoke and Mirrors.
Just come along, and sit with me,
And listen to the promises that hang around our feet,
And then one day, one day, we can sort out the pieces of love.
Together colours, so faded and so slapped,
To the canvas of truth, created to rob me, created to rob you of, wonder,
Wonders of, wonders of, circuses, and life-lessness, and pure closed-mindedness, yeah.
We set it up yeah...we set it up yeah,
We set the middle, set the middle,
Can you see my face, can you hear the name, that I call to you love?
Yeah we set our goals, set 'em all upon the wall and one by one yeah we watch them fall,
Impress your friends, with Smoke and Mirrors, Smoke and Mirrors yeah, nothing but Smoke and Mirrors yeah,
Oh and I see you there and I cannot help but stare at you you're, so damn beautiful and I know...that one day, yeah one day, one day, we'll be walking hand and hand I cannot, wait for the day when we can just think to ourselves,
"What a wonderful world."
Nothing to worry about, nothing to hate,
And I wonder...have I ever been here before.
'Cause you look familiar, so bright and reformed,
yeah I say you look, like you never been heard before,
And I wonder...can you ever really, fully, comprehend love?
And we set, the middle, we set the middle,
Can you see my face, can you hear the name, that I call to you love?
Yeah, we set our goals...set 'em all upon the wall and one by one yeah, we watch them fall,
Impress your friends, with Smoke and Mirrors.
Just come along, and sit with me,
And listen to the promises that hang around our feet,
And then one day, one day, we can sort out the pieces of love.
Together colours, so faded and so slapped,
To the canvas of truth, created to rob me, created to rob you of, wonder,
Wonders of, wonders of, circuses, and life-lessness, and pure closed-mindedness, yeah.
We set it up yeah...we set it up yeah,
We set the middle, set the middle,
Can you see my face, can you hear the name, that I call to you love?
Yeah we set our goals, set 'em all upon the wall and one by one yeah we watch them fall,
Impress your friends, with Smoke and Mirrors, Smoke and Mirrors yeah, nothing but Smoke and Mirrors yeah,
Oh and I see you there and I cannot help but stare at you you're, so damn beautiful and I know...that one day, yeah one day, one day, we'll be walking hand and hand I cannot, wait for the day when we can just think to ourselves,
"What a wonderful world."
