Wonderwall
Goot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day?
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don't know how

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?




And after an
You're my wonderwall

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Goot's cover of Wonderwall are introspective and express an individual's feelings for someone they care deeply about. The first verse talks about how "they" (presumably the universe or a higher power) will throw something back at the individual, something that will make them realize what they have to do. It seems as though the individual has been given a sign, a message they need to act on. In the following lines, the individual expresses their strong feelings for someone they care deeply about, emphasizing that they don't think anyone else feels as strongly about this person as they do.


The second verse expands on the first, with the word on the street saying that the fire in the individual's heart is out. They've heard this before, but this time they seem to be more convinced. Despite this, they still hold on to their strong feelings for the person they care about, and express uncertainty about how to express it. In the chorus, the individual questions whether the person they care about will ultimately be the one to save them, using the metaphor of a "wonderwall."


Overall, the lyrics are pensive and emotional, with a strong focus on the individual's feelings for someone they care deeply about. The imagery of roads and lights adds to the sense of uncertainty and confusion that often comes with emotional turmoil.
