- Chorus:
- Why this feeling? Why this
glow?
Why the thrill when you say "Hello?"
It's a strange and tender magic you do.
Mister 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.
Mister Wonderful, that's you!
-
- Bridge:
- And why this longing to
know your charms?
To spend forever here in your arms?
-
- Chorus:
- Oh, there's much more I
could say,
But the words keep slipping away,
And I'm left with one point of view.
Mister Wonderful, that's you!
