I Wonder Why by Art Garfunkel Lyrics

I Wonder Why it is the sky's so quiet tonight
There's not a cloud in sight
Just burning stars
It seems strange to me, the way the waves obey
The moon that shines above
And draws them to eternity
I Wonder Why it is that you are here with me
I Wonder Why

I Wonder Why it is the sea's so calm tonight
The sands are ghostly white
Beneath the moon
It seems strange to me to stand in endless space
And know that in this place
I'm held within its timeless sway
I Wonder Why it is that you are here with me
I Wonder Why

The wisdom of the world with all its mystery
Is strangely haunting me on this great shore
I know no book can teach, but I can feel tonight
The sky above, the sea below
And you my love
Tonight the world is mine, we're on the edge of time
I Wonder Why
I Wonder Why it is the sky's so quiet tonight
There's not a cloud in sight
Just burning stars
It seems strange to me, that breeze in holy light
We soar in wingless flight
Amidst this vast eternity
Tonight this world of mine is on the edge of time
I Wonder Why
I Wonder Why
I Wonder Why
I Wonder Why
