Did You Ever Wonder Why?
Dickon Hinchliffe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been waiting to hold you
run my fingers trough your hair
did you think that i didnt want you
did you think that i didnt care
and did you ever, ever wonder why

Hold me thight
i tell you it all
trough the night
till the break of dawn

Close youre eyes
i mean you no harm
trough the night
till the break of dawn

I've been wanting to show you
all the pictures in my head
all the words i mean to tell you
all the tears we never share
so don't you ever, ever wonder why

Hold me thight
I tell you it all
trough the night
till the break of dawn
(and we'll never never ever)

Close you're eyes
i mean you no harm
trough the night
till the break of dawn
(and we'll never never ever) fall apart

Hold me thight
i tell you it all
trough the night
till the break of dawn
(and we'll never never ever)

Close your eyes
I mean you no harm
trough the night
till the break of dawn
(and we'll never never ever) come apart
never ever, forever come apart
never ever, forever come apart
never apart
ever ever, forever come apart
never ever
forever come apart




never ever
forever come apart

Nice song, nice movie.

@LuDvoracek

I remember hearing this song for the first time.. It was a very special occasion, you know, one of those you will just never forget even though it pains you a great deal recollecting all the things related to that one moment. Nevertheless, this song will always have a place in my library :)
