I Wonder
D. Rice Lyrics

I wonder my little darling

Where can you be this moonlit night

Are you holding someone tight

I wonder
The singer repeats their curiosity and uncertainty about where their significant other is.

My heart is aching, I'm a fool
The singer admits to being foolish, as they are still hurting from the separation from their lover.

To let it go on breaking
The singer is allowing their heart to continue to be broken, despite the pain it is causing them.

Maybe I'll awake and find that I'm mistaken
The singer expresses the possibility of finding out that their heartache and separation from their loved one is a misunderstanding.

I wonder
The singer repeats their uncertainty about their loved one's whereabouts.

I wonder my little baby
The singer once again questions where their significant other is, now referring to them as 'baby.'

Baby, I wonder
The singer repeats their curious thoughts out loud about their baby's whereabouts.

My heart is aching but I'm a fool
The singer admits to being foolish by continuing to feel heartache and pain after the separation from their loved one.

To let it go on breaking
The singer reiterates allowing their heart to continuously be broken.

Maybe I'll awake and find I'm mistaken, baby

Baby, since we're through I've been through lover's lane
The singer has experienced multiple romantic relationships since their separation from their significant other.

But in my heart there's only pain
Despite moving on and experiencing new relationships, the singer still carries the pain and heartache from the separation with their loved one.

You went traveling, will it last?

While I'm traveling nowhere fast, sweetheart
The singer is acknowledging that while their loved one is exploring new places, they feel stuck and stagnant in their own life.

I wonder, where, where, where, where, little baby
The singer endlessly wonders where their loved one is and where they could possibly be in this moment.

Will you think of me again today
The singer questions if their loved one will think about them while they are on their journey and if they still care about the singer.

Though I may be a million miles away
Despite the physical distance between the singer and their loved one, the singer hopes that they still hold a place in their loved one's heart.

I wonder, I wonder
The singer cannot help but wonder and question their lover's whereabouts and their feelings towards the singer.
