Why this feeling, why this glow?
Why this thrill when you say "Hello"?
It's a strange and tender magic you do
Mr. Wonderful, that's you
Why this trembling when you speak?
Why this joy when you touch my cheek?
I must tell you what my heart knows is true
Mr. Wonderful, that's you
And why this longing to know your charms?
To spend forever here in your arms?
Oh, there's much more I could say
But the words keep slipping away
And I'm left with only point of view
Mr. Wonderful, that's you
One more thing, then I'm through
Mr. Wonderful
Mr. Wonderful
Mr. Wonderful, I love you
