"People see me,
I'm a challenge
to your balance.
I've over your heads
how I confound you and astound you
to know I must be one of the wonders
of God's own creation
and as far as you see you can offer me
no explanation.
I believe Fate smiled and Destiny laughed
as she came to my cradle
'know this child will be able'
laughed as she came to my mother
'know this child will not suffer'
laughed as my body she lifted
'know this child will be gifted
with love, with patience, and with faith
she'll make her way,
she'll maker her way'. "
-Natalie Merchant "Wonder"
Is this not my S or what??? I've loved this song from the day it was released but never really thought about the lyrics. Today it hit me like a ton of bricks.
