Story behind the song
One day I woke up and I was no longer young..
Lyrics
Sense of Wonder (George Pittis 1990) Standing on the threshold of your manhood Like a blessed, blessed child Looking for a path that you should follow You’re out there running, running wild Chorus (and ) You gave me back my Sense of Wonder If I’m down on my luck It’s an illusion I’m under You gave me back my Sense of Wonder… My Sense of Wonder Yesterday’s promises don’t make you bitter Tomorrow you know things are gonna get better You’re out there singing, you don’t write letters If nobody is listening, hey man they should know better Chorus repeat Middle: I listened to your songs in a voice of hope Life was so precious it was time that I awoke I couldn’t turn back the clock said the lump in my throat So let’s embrace the future cos the past was a joke Chorus repeat And when a dozen years have come to pass I hope you see satisfaction in the looking glass You say compromise is a dirty, dirty word But behind each disguise you know it’s all I ever heard Chorus repeat.. (till) you gave me….etc to fade
