Obvious
Ollie Wade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's something Iβ²ve grown used to
So stop worrying about what this may be
It doesn't change the way I kiss you
Well I've learnt a thing or two
About broken hearts and false starts
Cause even when you trying to
To force it past the line
Its way too hard to find
So when I think I might just know
Thereβ²s not a chance I'll let you go
If itβ²s time you need
Then I've got all the time to bleed
The wait is worth it when it leads to you
If you want me
You know Iβ²ll love you differently
Hiding right in front of us
Wasn't it obvious
I know that youβ²re still learning how to trust me
After all that you have been through
So every day I'm here I'll try to help you see
How deeply I adore you
Well Iβ²ve been known to run away
When I start to feel something real
But this time doesnβ²t feel the same
Even when I try I can't find
A fault in your design
Could I really call you mine
And I know itβ²s moving fast
But I think we might just last
If it's time you need
Well Iβ²ve got all the time to bleed
The wait is worth it when it leads to you
If you want me
You know I'll love you differently
Hiding right in front of us
Wasnβ²t it obvious
I think it knew it months ago
I tried so hard to let it go
It was never on the cards back then
It's funny how a day can change
Everything in every way
With all I ever need in front me
Well finally I see
If it's time you need
Well Iβ²ve got time for you and me
The wait is worth it when it leads to you
If you want this
I promise Iβ²ll be worth the risk
Hiding right in front of us
Wasn't it obvious
The song "Obvious" by Ollie Wade is about patience, trust and the journey of finding love. The singer talks about how waiting for someone he loves is not a problem for him, and he's willing to give her all the time she needs before they can fully commit to each other. He reassures her that waiting is worth it because the end goal is being with her. The singer has experienced a lot of heartbreaks and false starts, but he feels that this time is different because he can't find any flaws in her design, and he knows they might last together.
He also acknowledges that there's still room for trust-building between them because of her past, but he is willing to put in the work to help her overcome her insecurities. The singer also emphasizes that sometimes love can be staring at us blatantly, but we fail to see it because we are distracted by other things. He finally realizes that he has found all he ever needed in front of him, and he promises to be worth the risk if she decides to choose him.
"Obvious" is a beautifully written song that expresses the singer's emotions and dedication to finding true love. The lyrics highlight the importance of patience, trust, and the willingness to work towards building a stable relationship. With the right person, love can be worth the wait, and the singer's willingness to wait for his partner is a testament to that.
