Young man looking for life, Love and maybe glory
Heard about places new, Didn’t know where to begin
Night ferry over the sea, To a land he didn’t understand
But he very soon found out, It’s not so hard to fit in
It’s not so hard to fit in.

I was born in a foreign land, situation made it
Always wondered where that was, didn’t know where to start
Made the journey checked it out, found out what life’s about
Now I think I understand, why we shouldn’t break apart
Why we shouldn’t break apart

Across the water there’s a new land
And you can make it easily
You don’t need to cross no ocean
Wonderland is here to see
Wonderland is here to see

Someone said, “Don’t look back, take a road and ride it
Don’t worry bout what you leave, the world is big and round
Take a train, ride a ship, hitch a ride, take a dip”
Never knew then bout all those things, waitin out there to be found
Waitin out there to be found.

Well I journeyed north and south, crossed borders daily
Made friends in every land, some are still in my mind
Love came and went so fast, no woman could hold me
Looking back it’s hard to say why were people so kind
Why were people so kind




Across the water there’s a new land
And you can make it easily
You don’t need to cross no ocean
Wonderland is there to see
Wonderland is there to see

My life seems so strange, looking back in time now
Never really worked it out, how I got to be here
Took a chance tried a few, fell down but I never knew
How to lose if things went wrong; guess I just didn’t know fear
Guess I just didn’t know fear.

Across the water there’s a new land
And you can make it easily
You don’t need to cross no ocean
Wonderland is here to see
Wonderland is here for me
Wonderland is here for me
