Seven Wonders

Frank, why me?
I'm just ordinary
Ordinary is beautiful
I don't need Paris
I don't need a fancy restaurant or a huge orchestra
Just some subtle orchestrations

I've seen the seven wonders
If you give or take a few
But all them seven wonders, well
They can't compare to you
I've been a lot of places
Yes, I've travelled near and far
But now I know that home is where you are

Niagra Falls, a leaky faucet (what?)
That a plumber oughta fix
The Pyramids? (uh-huh) are really just
A dusty pile of bricks (really?)
The Taj Mahal, a fixer upper
The Grand Canyon, just a hole (Oh no)
The Grand Canal in Venice
An Italian toilet bowl! (that's wrong)

I've seen the seven wonders
If you give or take a few
But all them seven wonders, well
They can't compare to you
I've been a lot of places
Yes, I've travelled near and far
But now I know that home is where you are

Okay... The Aurora Borealis?
Just a nightlight on the Fritz
Mmmm... And Stonehenge?
Is just a bunch of rocks
La Brea's tar?
The pits!
How 'bout the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
Looks like something upped and broke
Mount Rushmore?
Someone climb up there and tell them boys a joke
Yes, my travelling days are over
Get the check, I'll pay the bill
'Cause I see all the wonders in your eyes

Just standing still
The clock's ticking, Brenda
I can't- I don't wanna be a doctor forever.

I wanna make a home- with you.
I've been a lot of places
But I've learned now, near and far
There's no need to roam
'Cause home is where you are
There's no need to roam
'Cause home is where you are
Yes now I know that
Home is where you are
