Where is the wonder
That I once felt?
Watching snowflakes melt
As a child
Where is the wonder
That I once knew?
When the sky of blue
Turned wild?

Where is the magic
That thrilled me so,
Watching flowers
Grow in the spring?
Where is the magic
That filled the sky?
How did robins fly and sing?
Where are the marvels
That I marveled at?
What changed the kitten to a cat?
Where are the mysteries
That I couldn't solve?
What made the world revolve?

Where is the wonder
That years conceal,
That a child can feel now and then?
Oh, where is the wonder
Of long ago
That I'll never know again?
