Is This Really Happening?
Wet Baes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is this really happening?
Please tell me I'm not chasing tails (takes me, takes me)
And where do you think you are?
We're making light
We're running wild
We're always waiting for the stars
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Tell me I'm not dreaming cause' I won't stop
Won't stop believe in
Believe in you
No one's gonna save you from changing things
See what's in your head
Get ready to shine
If you wanna go
If you wanna know
Well don't stop, don't stop
There's more than just a way to know
Go find the truth
Nobody ever is gonna stop you now from dreaming
And I don't wanna let you down!
So that is why I'm leaving far to see what's just behind
That door
It's your life now, what you're gonna do about it?
The ship is leaving now the earth the ship is leaving now!
(Great guitar solo)
No one's gonna save you from changing things
See what's in your head get ready to shine
If you wanna go
If you wanna know
Well don't stop, don't stop
There's more than just a way to know
Go find the truth
Nobody ever is gonna stop you now from dreaming
And I don't wanna let you down!
So that's why I'm leaving far to see what's just behind
That door




(Delightful sax solo)
(Kickass piano fuckin' solo!)
