Benjamin Clementine – I Won't Complain lyrics

It's a wonderful life, it's a wonderful life
Traversed in tears from the heavens
My heart is a mellow drum, a mellow drum in fact
Set alight by echoes of pain 24/7, 24/7
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry

You might not say that it's a wonderful world
And it's a wonderful life
And it's a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
But I won't complain
No I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't complain, no, no

My mind is a mirror, a reflection only known to me
And for those who hate me: The more you hate me, the more you help me
And for those who love me: The more you love me, the more you hurt me
When I go to bed in the night, I see some children in the light
Fighting unknown shadows behind my mother's back
And although I don't understand my dreams, I know somewhere there is hope
There is hope somewhere, there is hope
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry
I dream, I smile, I walk, I cry

You might not say that it's a wonderful world
And it's a wonderful life
And it's a wonderful day
Just as yesterday
But I won't complain
I won't complain, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no I won't complain, no, I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't, I won't complain
Though my good days are far gone
They will surely come back one morn
So I won't, I won't complain
