Wonder Lyrics - Live In Concert - Natalie Merchant

Doctors have come from distant cities, just to see me 

Stand over my bed, disbelieving what they're seeing 

They say I must be one of the wonders 

Of God's own creation 

And as far as they see, they can offer 

No explanation 

Newspapers ask intimate questions, want confessions 

They reach into my head to steal, the glory of my story 

They say I must be one of the wonders 

Of God's own creation 

And as far as they see, they can offer 

No explanation 

Ooo, I believe, fate smiled 

And destiny laughed as you came to my cradle 

Know this child will be able 

Laughed as my body she lifted 

Know this child will be gifted 

With love, with patience, and with faith 

She'll make her way, she'll make her way 

People see me I'm a challenge to your balance 

I'm over your heads how I confound you 

And astound you 

To know I must be one of the wonders 

God's own creation 

And as far as they see, they can offer 

Me no explanation 

Ooo, I believe, fate smiled 

And destiny laughed as she came to my cradle 

Know this child will be able 

Laughed as she came to my mother 

Know this child will not suffer 

Laughed as my body she lifted 

Know this child will be gifted 

With love, with patience and with faith 

She'll make her way, she'll make her way 

She'll make her way, she'll make her way
