Having a Wonderful Time, Wish You Were Her

Bono, T Bone Burnett

Booked passage on an ocean liner, went out on the sea
Sat at the captain's table, she was seated next to me
She brushed my arm discreetly with the pearls around her neck
She looked like Rita Hayworth in a low-cut black silk dress

We went up to her cabin and laughed the whole night through
Over champagne and jet planes and hearts and cars broken in two
Having a wonderful time, wish you were her

I travelled to the south of France checked into a pink hotel
She was standing by the croupier; the dice were in her spell
I staked my whole fortune on a hand of Baccarat
She moved around behind the bank, and she brought me luck

We got into a fast car and sped into the night
Watched the sun come up over Saint-Paul-de-Vence
Having a wonderful time, wish you were her

I set sail for Egypt, the great pyramids
Crawled inside the darkness to where the pharaohs lived
Walked out into the evening; she was bathing in the Nile
She took me to a caravan where she danced around the fire

I've never been so happy to be so miserable
I tried to forget you, but I can't run fast enough
Having a wonderful time, wish you were her
Having a wonderful time, wish you were her
Wish you were her, wish you were her, wish you were her...
