A song about me, you, and everyone else...

Wonder {Natalie Merchant}

Doctors have come from distant cities just to see me
Stand over my bed disbelieving what they're seeing

They say I must be one of the wonders of God's own creation
And as far as they can see they can offer no explanation

Newspapers ask intimate questions want confessions
They reach into my head to steal the glory of my story

They say I must be one of the wonders of God's own creation
And as far as they can see they can offer no explanation

I believe
Fate smiled and Destiny
Laughed as she came to my cradle: "Know this child will be able"
Laughed as she came to my mother: "Know this child will not suffer"
Laughed as my body she lifted: "Know this child will be gifted
With love, with patience and with faith, she'll make her way"

People see me I'm a challenge to your balance,
I'm over your heads how I confound you and astound you

To know I must be one of the wonders of God's own creation
And as far as they can see they can offer no explanation

I believe
Fate smiled and Destiny
Laughed as she came to my cradle: "Know this child will be able"
Laughed as she came to my mother: "Know this child will not suffer"
Laughed as my body she lifted: "Know this child will be gifted
With love, with patience and with faith, she'll make her way"
