Wondering Why
The Covasettes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you wanna waste your nights on guys
With hopeless hearts and empty minds, I
Oh but she's wonderful
And she knows it
She's sure of it
She's impeccable
I'm here standing
With open arms, dumbfounded
'Cause baby, you still leave me
Wondering why
I would love to turn you down
And show you that I'm worthwhile
And make you miss the only thing that you'll never have
Oh but she's wonderful
And she knows it
She's sure of it
She's impeccable
I'm here standing
With open arms, dumbfounded
'Cause baby, you still leave me
Wondering why
No, she don't fear nothing, no
No she don't fear, no she don't
No, she don't fear nothing, no
No she don't
No, she don't fear nothing, no
No she don't fear, no she don't
No, she don't fear nothing, no
No she don't
I'm here standing
With open arms, dumbfounded
'Cause baby, you still leave me
Wondering why
I'm here standing
With open arms, dumbfounded
'Cause baby, you still leave me
Wondering why
(Wondering Why)
The Covasettes's song Wondering Why is about unrequited love and the struggle to move on from someone who is clearly not interested. The singer acknowledges that they cannot pretend to be okay and watch the person they love waste their time with people who lack substance. However, the object of their affection is described as wonderful, sure of herself, and impeccable, making it difficult for the singer to move on. The repeated line, "baby, you still leave me wondering why" emphasizes this struggle to understand why the person they love cannot see their worth.
The singer also expresses a desire to prove themselves worthy and make the person they love miss the only thing they'll never have. This adds a layer of bitterness to the lyrics, as the singer is resentful that they are not being recognized by the person they love. The refrain of "no, she don't fear nothing, no / no she don't fear, no she don't" may indicate that the singer believes the person they love is fearless and unbreakable, adding to the frustration and confusion.
Overall, Wondering Why is a poignant song about the pain of unrequited love and the struggle to move on. The powerful vocals and catchy melody make the song both relatable and unforgettable.
