Lyrics
Giant squid and butterflies
Creatures big and mighty, low and small
We can only guess how many kinds
with which we share this big, blue ball
They say that we know less about the bottom of the ocean
than we do about the surface of the moon
So if you ever lose your sense of wonder
honey, it'll be too soon
Every day a new frontier
The backyard was a jungle green and wild
But it gets harder to remember
what came as second nature to a child
You know the names of all the roads
The lawn needs to be mowed
There's work to pay the bills and make the rent
You might wake up one day and never wonder
where your sense of wonder went
Mysteries within mysteries
like an endless set of Russian nesting dolls
And if we could ever find it
We'd find a question at the center of it all
Why something stead of nothing?
Are we out here on our own
or does someone or something catch us when we fall?
Without a sense of wonder
it begins to seem so tragic and so small
But it ain't all unicorns and rainbows
surely you've suspected this by now
Some days feel like a competition
to find the biggest way to let each other down
I don't blame you if you're worried
Sometimes I worry too
and don't believe it when I say it'll all work out'
'Cause it don't seem to make no sense
it's no wonder sometimes we all have our doubts
We are made of stardust
Electrons dancing to a cosmic reel
Light is particle and wave
but even this cannot explain the way it feels
So give all you got to give
cause at best it's relative
Love is how we pull each other through
Hold onto your sense of wonder
Keep yours for me and I'll keep mine for you
Neve lose your sense of wonder, babe
Keep yours for me and I'll keep mine for you
