If you want to cry You can always find something to cry about It's so easy to be wise Over someone else's tears But you have a gift That the rest of us just can't live without And it's something in your voice When you tell us how you feel 'Cause we've all loved something and lost it And it's burning my heart I can't open my mouth and just let it out But when I hear my Blue Orpheus sing I know that life is a wonderful thing Somewhere there's love and perpetual spring I know life is a wonderful thing Seems so long ago The sound of your joy filled the atmosphere We can make it on our own But the road is so rocky and steep And when you feel lost No one tells you what you need to hear And the only dream you have Is the one that's in your sleep 'Cause we soon forget what we're here for I need someone to say he's got dreams of his own I'll know I'm not alone I want to hear my Blue Orpheus sing I'll know that life is a wonderful thing Somewhere there's love and perpetual spring I'll know life is a wonderful thing Sing You will one day be together again Though you can not see her Sing She is somewhere in the world
