I can be bought
Persuaded and sold
With fancy pictures and marketing you can steal my soul
Greed is my god
Jealousy my lord
There is always bigger, always better, always more
My society – lies to me – tells me things and I believe
My heart it longs – and all it wants – is something that will make me complete
Look at all my things
And count all my gold
Dig a hole you can’t fill and then ask for more
Sell me your dreams
Sell me your hopes
Just make sure you tell me that it’s nothing at all
You can’t buy me – I’m not for sale – I’m not for sale
You can’t buy me – I’m not for sale – I’m not for sale
You can’t buy me – I’m not for sale – I’m not for sale…
In all the dark places that I can’t deny
And all the empty spaces that fill my life
In this life I’m faced with all the mistakes that I’ve made
And all the words I could say are not enough to repay
I just want to thank you
For the life you saved
And I want to tell you
That you made me the man I am today
In tomorrow lies the hope that you gave to me
With the power of our savior you set me free
Through my hardest times you never left my side
And through all my darkest nights you were always by my side
In all the dark places that I can’t deny
And all the empty spaces that fill my life
Simple little arrangement of this song with some strings and piano. Hope you like it!
Isn’t she wonderful – Isn’t he wonderful
Aren’t they wonderful together
I’ve just got to find out what this life is all about
Before you’ll find me there
Can you look in my eyes and tell me that you think that it will be all right?
I feel wonderful but I just can’t help but notice
That it’s never enough
You go on without a doubt, you never stop to find out
All we’re missing is love
Isn’t she beautiful – Isn’t he beautiful
Aren’t the beautiful together
I’ve just got to find out what this life is all about
Before you’ll find me there
“Isn’t She Wonderful” is on the 13 Miles album. Written in 2002.
