Isn't It A Wonder

Sad songs on the radio
It's a sign of the times girl
As the leaves begin to go
But all these signs now
Showing on my face
Proving me wrong taking its place
That there's more that we can do yeah
And I pray to God
That there's more we can show
More than we can do yeah.
Isn't it a wonder as a new baby cries
And isn't it a wonder with the sweetness in my eyes
Isn't it a wonder, on the crossroads of my life
Isn't it a wonder, isn't it a wonder to me?
Oh oh, yeah oh
It's the way of the world when
Wrong takes hold of right
It's the way of the world
In which we've all lost sight
But isn't this world too simple to be true
Holding on to memories of you.
And I pray to god
That there's more that we can do, yeah
And I pray to God
That there's more we can show
More than we can do, yeah.
Isn't it a wonder, as a newborn baby cries
And isn't it a wonder with the sweetness in my eyes
Isn't it a wonder, at the crossroads of my life
Isn't it a wonder, isn't it a wonder
That I can see a change in me
But I won't go back 'cause that's behind me
And after all strong words are spoken
My heart will never be, never be, never be
Isn't it a wonder, as a new born baby cries
And isn't it a wonder with the sweetness in my eyes
Isn't it a wonder, at the crossroads of my life
Isn't it a wonder, isn't it a wonder
That I can see a change in me
But I won't go back, 'cause that's behind me
And after all strong words are spoken
My heart will never be, never be, never be.
The song "Isn't It A Wonder" by Boyzone talks about the changes and challenges that come with the passing of time. The first verse describes how sad songs on the radio and falling leaves are signs of the times, indicating that everything changes eventually. The singer admits that these signs are showing on his face, proving that he was wrong in believing that things would stay the same. He hopes and prays for more they can do or show to overcome the challenges of life.
The chorus talks about the wonder that surrounds us in life, despite the difficulties we face. A newborn baby cries, and it's a wonder of life, and even the crooked paths we take come together to form a perfect crossroad. The sweetness in the singer's eyes is also a wonder of life. The singer realizes that although the world can be challenging, it's too simple to give up on. Memories of loved ones keep him going, and even though things change, he's determined not to go back.
In the second verse, the song highlights how the world has lost sight of what's right and wrong, and how it's up to us to make a change. The singer realizes that he can see the change within himself, and he's determined not to go back. Strong words may be spoken, but his heart will never give up.
Overall, the song is a beautiful reminder that there is wonder and beauty in life, even in our struggles. It's up to us to make the most of the time we have, and to never give up hope.

I was an American adult woman living in Malta in the 90s. MTV was one of several British channels I used to watch & I watched it all the time. I still love the music from that time, esp. Boyzone. It's 2023 and I honestly believe I love their songs more than ever - all these years later.
