Lyrics I Wonder - Bedford Falls

I Wonder

Whatever goes it doesn’t matter
I’m here to work for your own sake
Force me lie beneath your feet
And pick up the light you’ve left behind on me
The more I lose the less I wonder
What joy it is to have no thoughts
And through my dreams I rediscover
What could have been unfolding then
And it caught me on like a fire to the dawn
And it turned me on to capture all my deepest thoughts
By the nights I wonder, by the days I wonder
By the light I wonder what all of this means, what all of that means to me
I am a child of worthless peasants
And though my crown won’t shine of gold
My glory waits in distant future
I’ll be the sun with you against the wall
I’m here to cause a big sensation
I’ll have my turn, just you wait
I’ll be the voice of my generation
Just wait and see how they devour me
I am an alien ship, I am an alien ship
I am an alien ship, I wonder around
Come baby running back to where we used to stand
I’m glad you are a part of what I call myself
There’s nothing else to do here but to imagine
Something else going on in a world beyond your realm
Whatever goes it doesn’t matter
I’m here to work for your own sake
[- What is it you want, Mary?
What do you want?
You, you want the moon?!
Just say the word and I’ll throw a lasso around it and pull it down
Hey, that’s a pretty good idea
I’ll give you the moon, Mary
— I'll take it.
Then what?
— Well then, you could swallow it]
