Cornell Janko - Little Wonder Lyrics

She was a girl
New to the world
So small
And so innocent
Trapped in a cage
Waiting for that final day
It's all that she knows

And then
And then came that fateful day
When he walked through the door
He had his choice of many
She watched as he paced across the floor

When at last he looked in her
Looked into her eyes
Her heart began to purr
And he just smiled
Into his arms she felt so safe
She gripped him tight
He would love and protect her
This little wonder
She will be by his side

Fate was decided in the womb
Short time was provided without ever knowing
And he took her in, and gave her a home
With him she would live a long life
Not have to go it alone

And when she looked up at him
Looked into his eyes
Her heart began to purr
And he just smiled
Into his arms she felt so safe
She gripped him tight
He would love and protect her
This little wonder
She will be by his side

But the fate she could not escape
He knew he couldn't save her
She would never understand
What she meant to this man
And how she was to save him
And as he handed her over
Tears filled his eyes
As he said his last goodbyes

When she looked up at him
Looked into his eyes
Her heart began to purr
And he just smiled
Into his arms she felt so safe
She gripped him tight
He would love and protect her
This little wonder
She was always to be by his side

Little wonder
This little wonder
My little wonder
