Wonderful Unknown Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ingrid Michaelson]
Oh oh oh, let me wear your overcoat
My bones are super chill, and all the ponies have gone home

Oh oh oh, walking through Manhattan
With the ache from last night’s smile still smarting up from my toes

[Chorus]
Here we go dancing on our own inside this house that we have never known
Never known
Here we go
Going in alone into the dark and wonderful unknown
Let us go
Let us go

[Verse 2]
Oh oh, we make bread on Sundays
And the little ones are climbing up the walls
Up the walls
Oh oh, nothing lasts forever
But the sound of love astounds me every time that it calls


[Chorus]
Here we go dancing on our own inside this house that we have never known
Never known
Here we go
Going in alone into the dark and wonderful unknown
Let us go
Let us go
[Post-Chorus: Both]
In the best way you'll be the death of me
In the best way you'll be the death of me
In the best way you'll be the death of me
In the best way


[Bridge: Both]
Oh oh, got your father's wristwatch on
The one your mother gave him when they thought the world won't end
Oh oh, we will be there one day
With a smile and nothing more to say goodbye to a friend

[Chorus: Ingrid Michaelson]
Here we go dancing on our own inside this house that we have never known
Never known
Here we go
Going in alone into the dark and wonderful unknown
Let us go
Let us go

Here we go dancing on our own inside this house that we have never known
Never known
Here we go
Going in alone into the dark and wonderful unknown
Let us go
Let us go

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
