In The Wonder
Matthew Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you believe, or just don't know
This place is cold when the door's not closed...and like the winter
I must wait until it goes
And go it will...as I start to see that part of you I never knew was there in me
In the wonder...i will see you there, in the wonder
Within these walls I built for me
And now you're tearing down the bricks so I can see...in the wonder
In the wonder...i will see you there, in the wonder
In Matthew's song "In The Wonder", the lyrics speak of uncertainty and confusion regarding someone's feelings towards the singer. The lyrics, "Make up your mind...because I need to know if you can see...If you believe, or just don't know", express a need for clarity from the other person. The singer also highlights the coldness of their current situation, but acknowledges the hope of a change: "This place is cold when the door's not closed...and like the winter I must wait until it goes / And go it will...as I start to see that part of you I never knew was there in me".
"In The Wonder" also touches upon how the walls built around oneself can be brought down by a particular person, leading to discovery and wonder: "Within these walls I built for me / And now you're tearing down the bricks so I can see...in the wonder". The repeated line of "Are you gonna save me?" emphasizes the vulnerability and uncertainty of the singer hoping for someone's love and guidance. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of longing and a search for answers.
