Verse:
Time goes along,  You're alone and weary,
With nothing ahead but an empty view.
How this can change to a world so cheery,
When somebody whispers they believe in you.  Isn't it true?
 
Chorus:
When somebody thinks you're wonderful,  What a dif'rence in your day.
Seems as tho' your troubles disappear,  Like a feather in your way.
When somebody thinks you're wonderful,  Tells you a with smile so sweet.
What are little stones you step upon,  Just a meadow 'neath your feet,
And how you meet the morning,  And gaily swing along.
At night you may be weary,  But your heart still sings a song.
When somebody thinks you're wonderful,  Love is mighty close to you,
Just another thing more wonderful, making all her/his dreams come true.
