Lyrics for Your Body Is A Wonderland as interpreted by wherewulf

Your Body Is A Wonderland Lyrics
We got the afternoon
You got this room for two
One thing I've left to do
Discover me discovering you

One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips
And your bubble gum tounge

'Cause if you want love
We'll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break them
This is bound to be a while

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland I'll use my hands
Your body is a wonderland

There's something bout the way the hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillow case
You tell me where to go
And though I might leave to find it
I'll never let you head hit the bed without my hand behind it

You want love
We'll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland I'll use my hands
Your body is a wonderland

Damn baby
You frustrate me
I know your mine oh mine oh mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland I'll use my hands
Your body is a wonderland

ehhh.. this song is such a guilty pleasure for me. it doesn't make me melt, but i always smile a little when i hear it. a boy sang parts of it to me once, and yeah i guess it was a little cute at the time, but for the most part i just thought it was hilariously cheesy... now the song is kind of a joke to me.
i don't really recommend using it to pick up girls..

if a guy wants to turn me on, i suggest he learns this on guitar and has a beautiful voice to belt it out, because i'd be yours in a heartbeat, haha. John, you're amazing.

I love how he takes something that could be made into a dirty song and creates beauty out of it. He's a poet.

anyone agrees that this song is not exactly pg-13 rated (well, hmmm, actually i wouldn't say that, looking at how our young youth reacts to sex now days hahahaha :) ) and only john can get away with writing a song like this. :)

Every time I hear this song, it tranfers me to another world. A happier world with the guy of my dreams. This song makes my ice-cold heart melt like a chocolate. I just love it.

Um.. correction "your body is a wonderland in my hands" not "i'll use my hands." you just changed the sweet aroma of sex into something perverted.

he wrote it for jennifer love hewitt, they were dating at the time.

i love this song. i never liked it (or john mayer) when it first came out, i was young though. 11 i think. john mayer has definitely grown on me as i can appreciate him more now that i'm older, and this is one of my favorites. he's a genius.

Okay, I don't know if this has been stated yet but in the chorus he repeats the lyrics "I'm never speaking up again" from "My Stupid Mouth". Is there any connection between those two songs???

I love "you look so good it hurts sometimes" - sometimes I think that should be illegal when you have punchdrunk love - so good you want to bite someone's face off...

wookie007, I'm in awe at how you said that. Well done!

It's not like John Mayer was the first to sing about sex anyways. Anyone old enough to remember Meatloaf? Come on now.

"We were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed"

Although, quite more bluntly and less passionate, it was still about sex. Even Elton John did it.

"Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers"

Let's get over the fact that it's about sex okay?

So it's about sex. Big deal!

It's a sensitive celebration of an intensely sexual relationship. I can't think of another song that gets so much airplay that isn't either all about love and the assumption you'll be together forever (notice love is not actually mentioned...it's about the sex people) or incredibly edibly mysogynistic. What did you think 'slap that' was all about? ewww.

This song treats her as his equal, and someone to be respected at least during the time they're together...there are worse things in the world for sure.

ummm i agree but this still isnt a bad message. It is not said in this song it's for someone outside of marriage. yes, I know john mayer isnt married but I'd still love it to be sang to me once I get married. It makes no difference.

wtf no it doesnt. You people are idiots I swear. Bad messages? Yea, maybe to 11 year olds who should still be listening to mommy and daddy's music. John Mayer is a mature adult and his song are for his adult fans who actually give a damn what the meaning is. I'm talking about deeper than just this song being about sex. There's a difference between casual sex and making love. John Mayer knows that difference.

As to anything else I have to say, This song is indeed self-explanatory. It's a sensual guy saying how beautiful his girl is and saying he cant look at her without wanting to make love to her. He wouldnt rather be anywhere else than in her arms making love to her and feeling that kind of passion constantly.

Secretly, all of us girls-no matter our stereotype-would want a guy to sing something like this to us. Most girls in the world prefer it to be this song because it makes us melt so much. Other girls who arent geniuses think this song is meant to degrade women and they'd rather it be some other song...maybe written by their guy himself (if he's any good).

In my opinion, I'd rather John Mayer himself sing it to me since he has the voice to this song and only that voice gives me shivers...along with his facial expressions. Either way, I'd still fall way in love with any guy who played this song for me.

I still have more to say but I've got to get something said right now before I forget names:

Back in 2002 on page 3, devilangelwsf finally mentioned the part of the song that should get most girls. Yes, this song is raging full of amazing sensual lyrics but my shivers come when he says:
"Damn baby,
You frustrate me"
*shiver*shiver* :)

thrice-noapokoni333, you are indeed a dyke bitch. John has talent. get over it. I'm not denying Thrice or Thursday's talent because I love them as well. However, I doubt they could charm a girl as smoothly as John does. Also, He doesnt attend those wild parties you spoke of. Actually, he does go to "parties" but he is definitely not like those dumbass rappers or hardcore stoned and drunk rockers. John is an amazing and genuine guy. How do I know? I knew some people that knew him back in the day. I've come close to meeting him myself but havent. He didnt put on a show and still doesnt. You obviously dont read. Unlike Britney bubblegum Spears or Paris toothpick Hilton, he's not in the news on a daily basis. The only reason he's been in the news lately is his relationship with Jessica nasty slut ho Simpson. I'm done with you now.

mayerhavemybabies, you are amazing. Thank you for looking that up and posting it in defence of the music god John Mayer.

stoolhardy, I'm sure some would agree with you that he's trying to polish his look for his female fan base. I, however, dont. It's for his gay male fan base too. DUH! You people seriously dont take them into consideration at all. When I first got into John Mayer back in 2002, my gay friend was right there with me and even burned me a cd of John Mayer. God bless! Also, his voice is purely natural. That IS how he talks. He's from down here in the south. Aka Born in Alamaba and then moved to Georgia *hence Why Georgia*. That's his southern voice. Daughters isnt a womanizing song! Have you looked up the lyrics??? He said in a line in that song that guys cant live without the love and warmth of a woman. Duh! You're an idiot...I'm done with you.

RideNowhere, you're an idiot. It's not sleazy. Where do you people interpret this? I'm a pretty smart girl and I've read into it. Yeah, so it's a song about MAKING LOVE. There's a difference between making love and just fucking. Learn that difference, eh? John Mayer is a charmer. Get over it...

Like in many of my other posts on different bands, I'll tell you all the same. Dont talk shit on anyone that is pretty famous until you make more money than they do. They bring in the cash, you dont. get over it. John Mayer's songs may be cheesy to you but to his fans, they mean something. John Mayer isnt just another pop singer. He knows what he's doing and if you've ever seen him in concert and watched him play his guitar solo's, you'd learn to appreciate him just for that because you can see on his face just how much he loves music and he truly connects with his guitar when he plays. That moment is unbelievably sexy and sensual. It's naturally John Mayer. Quit complaining. Go back to your own bands and comment how great they are there. No one likes to hear anyone else whine.

By the way, I have a 2 disc set of a live concert and on the track where he played this song, he started it by saying ::This song is about girly parts::

THAT makes me melt :)
