It's Wonderful
Ella Fitzgerald and Her Savoy Eight Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's wonderful to look into your eyes
And realize you care a little bit.
It's wonderful to know that you love me.

It's glorious to feel that I'm a part of you, sweetheart;
To share your happiness.
It's marvelous how lovely, love can be.
Who dreamed that I'd be allowed
Through the doorway of heaven?
I'm drifting high on a cloud;
You're an angel and this is heaven.

It's wonderful to have your lips divine, combined with mine,
And dream forever more.
It's wonderful to know that you love me.

Who dreamed that I'd be allowed
Through the doorway of heaven?
I'm drifting high, high on a cloud;
You're an angel and this is heaven.

Oh, it's wonderful to have your lips divine, combined with mine,
And dream forever more.
It's wonderful to know that you love me.

It's glorious.




It's marvelous.
Oh darling, it's wonderful.
