lyrics
Wonderful in young life.
Two weeks in another town,
Sending shivers along in the spine,
Of your friends when they call.
Here she comes,
The wild wind blows,
In rhythms of season,
In young life and reasons.
Deceiving and pleasing to some,
Wild girls wild,
In epic beauty wild,
Surviving these changes,
In paces and faces,
In free wonder.
Free wonder,
Free wonder style.
Wonderful.
Little Egypt eyes.
Wonderful.
And the world can't wait.
Wonderful.
And the beat's white hot.
Wonderful.

Dream, dream, dream,
It's the eighties' youthful theme.
Loving the city,
A theme for great cities,
And loved ones,
And love.
Memorize,
A crowded swallow skies.
Whatever the weather,
The climate is perfect for,
So young,
And so young in life.
An angel day,
Angels coming your way,
Screaming good fortune,
And follow,
And look at the memories,
That are stuck in our eyes.

Wonderful.
Little Egypt eyes.
Wonderful.
And the world can't wait.
Wonderful.
Celebrate soul day.
Wonderful.

Wonderful in young life,
Two weeks in another town,
Sending shivers along in the spine,
Of your friends when they call.
Here she comes,
The wild wind blows,
In rhythms of season,
In young life and reasons,
Deceiving and pleasing to some,
Wild girls wild,
In epic beauty wild,
Surviving these changes,
In paces and faces,
In free wonder.
Free wonder,
Free wonder style.

Wonderful.
Little Egypt eyes.
Celebrating soul day.
Wonderful.
And the beat's white hot.
Wonderful.

God I'm singing memories.
Hey I'm singing memories.
Look I'm singing memories.

Here she comes - wonderful.
