If you want to cry

You can always find something to cry about

It's so easy to be wise

Over someone else's tears

But you have a gift

That the rest of us just can't live without

And it's something in your voice

When you tell us how you feel



'Cause we've all loved something and lost it

And it's burning my heart

I can't open my mouth and just let it out



But when I hear my Blue Orpheus sing

I know that life is a wonderful thing

Somewhere there's love and perpetual spring

I know life is a wonderful thing



Seems so long ago

The sound of your joy filled the atmosphere

We can make it on our own

But the road is so rocky and steep

And when you feel lost

No one tells you what you need to hear

And the only dream you have

Is the one that's in your sleep



'Cause we soon forget what we're here for

I need someone to say he's got dreams of his own

I'll know I'm not alone



I want to hear my Blue Orpheus sing

I'll know that life is a wonderful thing

Somewhere there's love and perpetual spring

I'll know life is a wonderful thing



Sing

You will one day be together again

Though you can not see her

Sing

She is somewhere in the world
