Looking through this window pane
At the world nearby
I see nothing there but rain
Makes me want to cry
How did this circumstance find me
Hidden so safely here?
What have I done to deserve this truth and these tears?
I'm just wondering out loud
Underneath the blue and cloud
I don't mean to draw a crowd
I'm just wondering out loud
Then again another day
Different point of view
Searching higher than before
This time I see You
How did this miracle find me?
Why do You know my name?
What have I done to deserve this love anyways?
You know I can't say
I'm just wondering out loud
Could it be that I've been proud
Here beneath the blue and cloud
I'm just wondering out loud
Now I'm driving down the road
With great music on the radio
And a great big sun in the sky
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
And after this, we go to Heaven
After this, we go to Heaven
Can the joy of life be found in simple gratitude?
And is gratitude as simple as perspective?
I'm just wondering out loud
Underneath the blue and cloud
It may be that I've been proud
I'm just wondering out loud
I don't mean to draw a crowd
These are things I think about
I'm just wondering out loud
I've been wondering out loud
