(Verse)
I act like it




Overall Meaning

's all good
But it's not, no
It's not OK
And I've been praying
But won't leave you alone


(Chorus)
It's a wonderful world
But not for me
No, it's not a wonderful world
Without love, it's a hurting world


In these lyrics, Rebecca Ferguson is expressing the struggle of being in a world that is seemingly great, with so many incredible things to see and experiences to have, yet it is not enough for her because she is lacking love. She is putting up a facade of being okay, but in reality, she isn't. The lyrics "But won't leave you alone" suggest that she is trying to find love and happiness in someone else, rather than finding it within herself first. The chorus then repeats the idea that the world is wonderful, but not for her because she is not experiencing it with love. This song is ultimately a commentary on the importance of love and how it can truly make a difference in one's life.
