Wonderful Life
New York Stage Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here I go out to sea again
Sunshine fills my hair
And dreams hang in the air
Gulls in the sky and in my blue eyes
You know it feels unfair
There's magic everywhere.

Look at me standing
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine

No need to run and hide
It's so wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's so wonderful, wonderful life

Sun in your eyes
And heat is in your hair
They seem to hate you
Because you're there
And I need a friend
Oh, I need a friend
To make me happy
Not standing on my own

Look at me standing
Here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine

No need to run and hide
It's so wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's so wonderful, wonderful life

I need a friend
Oh, I need a friend




To make me happy
Not so alone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song "Wonderful Life" by New York Stage Orchestra express a sense of freedom, joy, and longing for companionship. The singer describes going out to sea again, feeling the warmth of the sun on their face, and seeing magic everywhere. However, the singer also feels a sense of unfairness, perhaps because they are experiencing something so wonderful but do not have someone to share it with.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "It's so wonderful, wonderful life" and emphasizes the idea that there is no need to run and hide, laugh or cry when life is so wonderful. However, as the song progresses, the singer expresses the need for a friend to make them happy and to not stand alone. The last line of the song, "I need a friend, oh, I need a friend, to make me happy, not so alone," captures the sentiment of loneliness present in this seemingly joyful song.


Overall, "Wonderful Life" is a complex exploration of the joys and sorrows of life, and the value of companionship and human connection.

Das stimmt

Сомневаюсь, что лёд и гранит треснет. Включил песню, поставил перед ледышкой. Лёд не треснул. 😊

Если не ошибаюсь, Колин покинул этот мир в январе 2016го; в результате ДТП врачи были вынуждены ввести его в искусственную кому, но, к сожалению, спасти не удалось ...
А песня продолжает жить и помогает многим 🙏

@DinaDina-zr3tk

Гениальная песня на все поколения!🙏🙏🙏Царствие небесное, Колин... Талантище!!!
