Mary Black - Wonder Child

This child he means the world to me There is no more enchanted
A child can take this place of ruin And magically enhance it
I see him in a golden room With the book of life before him
Strange instruments upon his charts And the crystal glow inside him
He's your Wonder Child And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life I see him now flying over the universe
This child will build a violin One will follow the traveller's love
Another will the bow apply To reach the one above
I see her in a golden room With the moon and stars above her
Her simple smile is Heaven's gate With the Queen of all beside her
She's your Wonder Child And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life I see her now flying over the universe
Your Wonder Child And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life I see them now flying over the universe
This child he means the world to me There is no more enchanted
A child can take this place of ruin And magically enhance it
I see him in a golden room With the book of life before him
Strange instruments upon his charts And the crystal glow inside him
He's your Wonder Child And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life I see him now flying over the universe
This child will build a violin One will follow the traveller's love
Another will the bow apply To reach the one above
I see her in a golden room With the moon and stars above her
Her simple smile is Heaven's gate With the Queen of all beside her
She's your Wonder Child And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life I see her now flying over the universe
Your Wonder Child And my dreams come true
You've searched all your life I see them now flying over the universe
