Thing of wonder

Liner Notes:
Super quick half-hour write, rough one-take recording before it gets too late for the neighbours... Thought the last Sunday skirmish should end on a hopeful note!
Lyrics:
It’s a thing of wonder
how our spirits keep on going
a thing of wonder
how our minds can keep on growing
when the world comes to a stop
and there seems to be no hope
It’s a thing of wonder
how we still can keep on living
a thing of wonder
how we still can keep on giving
when we feel we’re bound to drop
when we’re all fresh out of cope
But still we take it and we run
we adapt and learn to master
every challenge one by one
every pitfall and disaster
and it’s a thing of wonder
that we still are here at all.
It’s a thing of wonder
how our hearts can keep on beating
a thing of wonder
that although our lives are fleeting
we still keep on keeping on
we’re still reaching for the sky
It’s a thing of wonder
how our minds can keep on dreaming
a thing of wonder
how we still can find redeeming
features we all thought were gone
we still fly our flags up high…
