Something So Wonderful - Eleanor McEvoy

How did you come to be strong?

Why don’t you falter?

How come you keep holding on

When nobody sees

What you’ve achieved

And all that you own

Is all you believe… I see

Something so wonderful

Somehow so sure

My eyes are blinded by

Something so pure

Something so wonderful

Somehow so sure

My eyes are blinded by

Something so pure

Wounded by weapons of man

Blinded by science

Touched by the chemical gun

The suffering they felt

Was it all you could stand?

That torch that you held

Is it still in your hand… I see

Something so wonderful

Somehow so sure

My eyes are blinded by

Something so pure

Something so wonderful

Somehow so sure

My eyes are blinded by

Something so pure

And your light will show the way

Out of the darkness and the gloom

And your hand will guide me

To you

And your strength will give to me

The promise of a brighter day

And your love will surely

Take me away

Take me away

Take me away

When nobody sees

What you’ve achieved

When all that you own

Is all you believe

And the suffering they felt

Was it all you could stand?

And that torch that you held

Is it still in your hand?

'Cause it’s …

Something so wonderful

Somehow so sure

My eyes are blinded by

Something so pure

Something so wonderful

Somehow so sure

My eyes are blinded by

Something so pure
