I WONDER
Dom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Girl I know there's something wrong
I can see it when I look in your eyes
And I know that it couldn't be far
it's the story of our lives
And when I look over my shoulder
I know who'll be on the other side
And things will get trashy until we get to my place
And I wonder
I wonder if you will ever know
I never wanted you to go
No I don't think so I don't think so
Or how much, how much I've been wishing we could make it work
Or forget it for a minute and how bad it hurts
And I don't know how and I don't know how

You know that there's nothing wrong
Maybe you just need a reason to cry
Baby I don't have a reason to lie
It's the story of our lives
And when I look over my shoulder
I know who'll be on the other side
And things will get trashy until we get to my place

And I wonder
I wonder if you will ever know
I never wanted you to go
No I don't think so I don't think so
Or how much, how much I've been wishing we could make it work




Or forget it for a minute and how bad it hurts
And I don't know how and I don't know how

This line seems to be a manifestation of the singer's ongoing uncertainty and confusion about the relationship. They wonder if their partner will ever understand the depth of their feelings and how much they've been wishing to make things work. Despite the emotional turmoil, the singer seems to hold out a glimmer of hope that things might improve or that the pain might ease, even if they don't know how to make that happen.
