My dear, everything moves so fast
It all moves so fast these days
But come in real close and dance real slow
Maybe time will change its pace

Maybe we can sing time to sleep
Just for tonight
We can tiptoe and slip outside
Before he wakes the morning's light

And like carolers on Christmas Eve
We will call on those held dear
And we will pass the spirits among us
We will toast the coming year

It will surely come before we know it
And the next upon its heels
But within this life is splendor tangled
Like Christmas lights unreeled

My dear, it's still a wonderful life, wonderful life
My dear, it's still a wonderful life

My dear, let's toast the sorrows
And the dreams left unfulfilled
For this life is a blink and a whisper
But look at all that we have built

Look at all the friends we have to share with
Look at all the hope that we have dared with
Look at how far we've leapt and how far we've come

My friends, it's still a wonderful life, wonderful life
My friends, it's still a wonderful life
My friends, it's still a wonderful life, wonderful life
My friends, it's still a wonderful life

Look at all the friends we have to share with
Look at all the hope that we have dared with
Look at how far we've leapt and how far we've come

My friends, it's still a wonderful life, wonderful life
My friends, it's still a wonderful life
