“Wonderful”

This video is from the 2011 MFA Acoustic Session in the galleries of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. My Morning Jacket is one of my favorites! Their live performances are amazing but even more rad are the song lyrics. Please don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying RA is wonderful… but life sure is. It’s important to keep things in perspective… and to daydream. I hope this gives you a spiritual boost!

Here are the lyrics:
“Wonderful (The Way I Feel)”

It matters to me
Took a long time to get here
If it would have been easy
I would not have cared

Like a tropical forest
Like a cop on the beat
When all is in order
You get lost in the heat

I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel

Doesn’t matter to me
I could take it or leave it
I could learn from way back when
And still live right now

With the sun on my shoulder
And the wind in my back
I will never grow older
At least not in my mind

I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
So wonderful, wonderful the way I feel
I feel so wonderful, wonderful, wonderful the way I feel

I’m going where there ain’t no fear
I’m going where the spirit is near
I’m going where the living is easy
And the people are kind
A new state of mind

I’m going where there ain’t no police
I’m going where there ain’t no disease
I’m going where there ain’t no need
To escape from what is
Only spirits at ease
