Wondering
Mavericks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see you almost everyday
Sometimes I see you look my way
I'm wondering, do you feel the butterflies?
A little anxious deep inside I'm wondering

When I see you out with others
Are you only friends or lovers?
I know it's strange to feel like this
We haven't even shared a kiss
But I'm wondering, I can sit and fantasize
Till fantasy is realized, I'm wondering

When I see you out with others
Are you only friends or lovers?

I think of waking by your side
For you your breathing in your sides, I'm wondering
Or is this just a should've been or could've been
Or would've been, I'm wondering

Or is this just a should've been or could've been
Or would've been I'm wondering





Is this just a should've been or could've been
Or would've been I'm wondering

I see you almost everyday
I frequently see you


Sometimes I see you look my way
Occasionally you glance towards me


I'm wondering, do you feel the butterflies?
I'm curious if you experience nervous excitement


A little anxious deep inside I'm wondering
I feel slightly uneasy as I ponder


When I see you out with others
When I observe you with different individuals


Are you only friends or lovers?
Do you have a platonic or romantic relationship?


I know it's strange to feel like this
I'm aware that my emotions may be unusual


We haven't even shared a kiss
We haven't even kissed yet


But I'm wondering, I can sit and fantasize
But I still daydream and ponder


Till fantasy is realized, I'm wondering
Until my daydream becomes reality, I'm curious


I think of waking by your side
I imagine waking up beside you


For you your breathing in your sides, I'm wondering
I'm curious about the rhythm of your breathing


Or is this just a should've been or could've been
Perhaps this is only a possibility that didn't become reality


Or would've been, I'm wondering
Or maybe it could happen, I'm thinking


Is this just a should've been or could've been
Is this only a thought that doesn't have a chance to be real?


Or would've been I'm wondering
Or is there still a chance for it to happen?
