Peter Skellern - I Wonder Why lyrics

rate me

I wonder why it is the sky's so quiet tonight?<br />

There's not a cloud in sight, just burning stars.<br />

It seems so strange to me, the way the waves obey.<br />

the moon that shines above. and draws them to eternity.<br />

I wonder why it is that you are here with me,<br />

I wonder why?<br />

I wonder why it is, the sea's so calm tonight<br />

the sand's a ghostly white,beneath the moon?<br />

It seems so strange to me to stand in endless space.<br />

and know that in this place, I'm held within its timeless sway.<br />

I wonder why it is that you are here with me,<br />

I wonder why?<br />

The wisdom of the world with all its mystery,<br />

is strangely home to me on this great shore.<br />

And no book can teach what I can feel tonight. The sky above,<br />

the sea below and you my love.<br />

Tonight the world is mine, we're on the edge of time<br />

I wonder why?<br />

I wonder why it is the sky's so quiet tonight.?<br />

There's not a cloud in sight, just burning stars.<br />

It seems so strange to me, that reason how we left.<br />

we soar in wingless flight amidst this vast eternity.<br />

Tonight this world of mine is on the edge of time.<br />

I wonder why?
