The Wonder of You

Words & Music: Baker Knight
When no-one else can understand me
When everything I do is wrong
You give me hope and consolation
You give me strength to carry on

And you're always there to lend a hand
In everything I do
That's the wonder
The wonder of you

And when you smile the world is brighter
You touch my hand and I'm a king
Your kiss to me is worth a fortune
Your love for me is everything

I'll guess I'll never know the reason why
You love me like you do
That's the wonder
The wonder of you
Recorded: 1970/02/18, first released on single

One of my favourites, an eternal karaoke number for numerous ropey crooners but a great, great song. Love the Great Performances version. Just heard the original Ray Peterson version of this and it's a lovely slow ballad that really highlights the beautiful meloy this song has. Very nice. But I still prefer Elvis' ;)
