lyrics

We could live anywhere
But we choose wonderland
It’s so familiar
Still we can’t know what we could have

We could have more than we ever wanted
More than we considered
But nothing like we expect

And aren’t we having a good time
Aren’t we having a good time
Aren’t we having a good time
This isn’t easy
We don’t have the freedom that we crave
But there’s a lesson in those mysterious ways

We could find more than we ever wanted
More than we considered
But nothing like we expect

And aren’t we having a good time
Aren’t we having a good time
Aren’t we having a good time

This isn’t easy
We don’t have the freedom that we crave
But there’s a lesson in those mysterious ways

Let’s live in the present
We can’t live in the past
We can’t keep looking back

Let’s make a decision
Why put off happiness again
Gratification
Is the opposite of sin

And aren’t we having a good time
Aren’t we having a good time
Aren’t we having a good time
