Wonderful World
Waltzing Through Life: A Serenade to Freedom and Love
Lyrics
Wonderful world that you can waltz into
Expressing the beauty and possibilities of the world that one can immerse themselves in effortlessly.
Breathing by the open sea
Enjoying life while being close to nature, particularly the calming influence of the open sea.
The back roads, I think they belong to you
Suggesting a sense of ownership or connection to less-traveled paths, possibly indicating uniqueness or personal significance.
Drive away until you're free
Encouraging the idea of driving away from constraints until achieving a sense of freedom.
Baby, don't you love your life?
Prompting the listener to appreciate and cherish their own life.
You go crazy by the ocean
Describing a feeling of excitement or intensity experienced near the ocean.
And wild under the stars at night
Conveying a sense of untamed and unrestrained behavior under the night sky.
If you let me follow you
Expressing a desire to accompany or be close to someone.
You know I would have gone with you
Acknowledging a missed opportunity to be together due to circumstances.
Look at all the world that you've seen
Reflecting on the vast experiences and adventures the person has encountered.
Maybe it's larger than the one
Suggesting that the person's life is more expansive than the speaker's own.
That I could ever be
Expressing a sense of inadequacy compared to the other person's life.
You gave all that you had, true
Recognizing and appreciating the sacrifices made by the person.
And I would take it over any
Preferring the person's life over any other.
Other one that I could
Reiterating the choice of the person's life as the preferred one.
I looked away and you were gone
Realizing the absence of the person after looking away.
I should have known that it was
Expressing regret for not realizing sooner that it was time for the person to move on.
Time for you to move along
Acknowledging the inevitability of the person's departure.
It seems so very long ago
Describing the elapsed time since the person left as feeling distant.
Like I dreamed it up and never let it show
Suggesting that the speaker kept their feelings hidden like a dream.
And baby, don't you love your life?
Encouraging the listener to cherish their own life, echoing the sentiment from line 6.
Could it ever be the same for you and I?
Questioning whether things could be the same between the speaker and the person.
Cuz every time I breath the open sea
Recalling the sensation of being near the open sea and connecting it to a dream of the person returning.
I dream that you were waltzing
Imagining the person waltzing back into the speaker's life.
Your way back to me
Expressing the desire for the person to return to the speaker.
