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 are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I
Would like to say to you but I don't know how

Because maybe, you're gonna be the one that 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 you there are winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I
Would like to say to you but I don't know how

I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all, you're my wonderwall

I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all, you're my wonderwall

I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me




You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me

Line by Line Meaning

Today is gonna be the day
Today is the day when something significant is going to happen


That they're gonna throw it back to you
Someone is going to remind you of something you said or did in the past


By now you should've somehow
At this point in time, you should have already understood


Realized what you gotta do
You should have understood what needs to be done


I don't believe that anybody
I don't think that anyone


Feels the way I do, about you now
Has the same intense feelings I do for you, currently


Backbeat, the word was on the street
There was a rumor going around


That the fire in your heart is out
That you have lost your passion or enthusiasm for something


I'm sure you've heard it all before
I am confident that you have been told this multiple times


But you never really had a doubt
But you've never really questioned it


And all the roads we have to walk are winding
All the routes we must take are indirect and complicated


And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
And all the signs that direct us are overwhelming and confusing


There are many things that I
There are many things that I'd like to


Would like to say to you but I don't know how
Tell you, but I don't know how to express them


Because maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
Perhaps, you will be the one who rescues me from my troubles


And after all, you're my wonderwall
Ultimately, you are my savior and protector


Today was gonna be the day
Today was supposed to be the day


But they'll never throw it back to you
But they'll never remind you of the past


By now you should've somehow
At this point in time, you should have somehow


Realized what you're not to do
Understood what actions to avoid


I don't believe that anybody
I don't think that anyone


Feels the way I do, about you now
Has the same intense feelings I do for you, currently


And all the roads that lead you there are winding
All the paths leading to your destination are full of twists and turns


And all the lights that light the way are blinding
And all the signs that are supposed to guide you are overwhelming and confusing


I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
I once again suggest that you might be the one that rescues me


And after all, you're my wonderwall
And in the end, you are the one who shelters me from harm


I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
Once again, I suggest that you might be the one that rescues me


And after all, you're my wonderwall
And after everything, you are my fortress and ally


I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me
Once again, I suggest that you might be the one that rescues me


You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're going to be the one who rescues me
