Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wonderful (yeah baby, yeah you are)
Wonderful
I know you don′t know where
Cause I've been tryna chill (cause I′ve been tryna chill)
But, now I have a moment
To tell you how I feel, baby
I believe you and me, baby
Would rather start the moment I sent you, baby
I've been lovin' you
All of my life although, we just met baby
I know you cant imagine (I know you can′t imagine)
That fantasies come true (that fantasies come true)
I′m thinkin' I′m in heaven
'Cause I′ve got something for you
Can't believe inside what I am feeling, baby
Every time I see you my heart stops beating, baby
(Huh) I′m outta control
All I know
Is, I'm in love (I'm in love)
So in love
With Ms. Wonderful, oh (wonderful)
I′m in love (I′m in love)
So in love
And, I can't let go, oh oh (can′t let go)
I'm in love (I′m in love)
So in love
With Ms. Wonderful (wonderful)
Girl it's true
It is you
I hope you know, I feel you
From the depths of my heart baby
I know you want, that problems
Tear this world of treasure all apart
And, if you trust me (trust me, babe)
I′ll make it good for you, baby
There's no measure (no measure, babe)
It is a limited love, treasure
I'll tear this world upside down
Just to protect you, baby
I know you can′t imagine (I know you can′t imagine)
That fantasies come true (that fantasies come true)
I'm thinkin′ I'm in heaven
′Cause I've got something for you
Can′t believe inside what I am feeling, baby
Every time I see you my heart stops beating, crazy
(Uh) I'm outta control
And, all I know
Is, I'm in love (I′m in love)
So in love
With Ms. Wonderful, baby (wonderful)
I′m in love (I'm in love)
So in love
With Ms. Wonderful, oh (can′t let go)
I'm in love (I′m in love)
So in love
With Ms. Wonderful, oh baby (wonderful)
All I know, baby
Can't let go, oh oh
I lose control, baby
I can′t believe
Every time I see you my heart stops beating, baby (really, baby)
There's a sea inside what I am feeling, babe
I feel you (yeah)
Don't know what to do




Wonderful
Can′t let go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Chico DeBarge's song "Ms. Wonderful" express the singer's deep and intense love for a woman he has recently met.

But now, he seizes the opportunity to confess his emotions to her.


He believes that their connection is strong, even though they have only just met. He wants to start a new chapter with her and express his love openly.

He acknowledges that their love is a precious treasure that he would protect at any cost. He once again expresses his disbelief at the intensity of his feelings for her, describing it as his heart stopping every time he sees her.
