Wonderful Life
Smith and Burrows Cajetanus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here I go out to sea again
The 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 a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life

The sun's in your eyes
The 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 stand there 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 a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life

I need a friend, oh I need a friend
To make me happy, not so alone
Look at me here, here on my own again
Up straight in the sunshine

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

No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life




No need to run and hide
It's a wonderful, wonderful life

Overall Meaning

The song "Wonderful Life" by Smith and Burrows Cajetanus talks about the beauty of life and the importance of having someone to share it with. The first verse paints a picture of a person going out to sea surrounded by the beauty of nature. Despite the magic and joy around him, he feels the weight of loneliness and isolation, standing on his own in the sunlight. The chorus repeats multiple times, reflecting the message that there's no need to hide or feel sad, that life is a wonderful experience, even if it's sometimes tough.


The second verse focuses more clearly on the person's emotions and struggles. The sun and heat are described as hating them simply for being present. The cry for a friend becomes more desperate, as they confess to feeling unhappy and alone. The final lines of the song return to the chorus, emphasizing the message that even in the face of difficulty, life itself is a gift to be celebrated.
