Lyrics for Wonderwall as interpreted by kevin

Wonderwall Lyrics
Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you shoulda somehow realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now
Back beat, the word is 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 shoulda 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 were 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

the chord progressions
the lyrical imput.
ok yes it does touch on a lovely little topic
but look at 99% of all the songs out there
there are millions of songs about love.

Brian Jonestown Massacre.
best thing to come since the 60s

anton newcombe is the singer/front man.

I've always thought of it as more as depicting the end of a relationship.
"I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now." seems like the sort of thing you would think about someone after being involved long enough to see the parts of them normally hidden from the world; the parts that aren't apparent until after infatuation has worn off.

In my life, this song strikes a chord. what does it mean? im not sure what was intended. only what it means to me. here goes:

about me, there are two oddities that come together to form a major problem (this story is important to my translation). the first is that people tend to either view me as creepifying and weird and avoid me all together. the second, most prominant amongst females, is they feel that i'm trustworthy and thus they come to me with their problems.

the second point is that in a partner, i kinda idolise the kind of woman who may not nessisarily need the "hero," but wants a guy who can be the knight-in-shining, anyway. thus, i kinda find meself wanting to be that guy to one gal, even though i don't say anything to her. I end up being the friend who she trusts, who advises her on how to deal w/ issues (including relationship ones [which i DO do my level-best to help {im not an opportunist}]) and who secretly has many things that they would like to say to her, but doesn't know how. whats the worst is when i see her with guys that make them miserable.

i feel (in my opinion) that the fellow in the song is all too familiar with said situation. He's helped this woman through so much shit in her life. he's sacrificed for her, always been there for her, never let her down, yet never revealed how he really felt. he's hoped in vain that maybe, just maybe, she'll realise all he's done for her. maybe she'll look back, and remember how he helped her. remember when he talked her down from ODing, or when he dropped everything he was doing because she was lonely, sad and needed a shoulder to cry on. maybe she'll reall that night she called him at work crying, and he had to have someone cover for him as he comforted her on the phone for 2 hours in the walk-in refrigerator. or when he cancelled a date, his first in 6 months, because she had an emergency. but, in the end, she wound up engaged to a guy whose short-tempered, abusive, possessive, controlling and paranoid. she still confides in him pretty much all of her problems, and he still helps. she even begins AND ends every conversation with "don't tell him I said anything" even though she knows they never spoke to one another but once. but in short order, she'll be moving in w/ him. and odds are good he'll never see her again.

well, maybe I got a little specific at the end, but I think my point stands. just get rid of the overly specifics, and replace the fiancee bit with "she shows no interest in him."

The song takes its name from the 1968 album Wonderwall Music by George Harrison, at the time still a member of the Beatles.[1] Harrison's album was in fact a soundtrack to the film Wonderwall, but the film has remained unknown by the general public.

It is often claimed that "Wonderwall" was written for Gallagher's then-girlfriend, Meg Mathews. Noel married Mathews, but they were divorced in 2001. Gallagher now claims that the song was not about Mathews at all, but he felt he had to go along with the rumour, saying "The meaning of that song was taken away from me by the media who jumped on it. How do you tell your missus it's not about her once she's read it is? It's a song about an imaginary friend who's gonna come and save you from yourself." [2] Initially Noel wanted to sing this song, but he gave his brother Liam Gallagher the choice, and Noel ended up singing "Don't Look Back in Anger".[3]

I kinda feel this way about my boyfriend. He has saved me from a lot of things and if it weren't for him, I don't know where I'd be. I don't really think it's a breakup song. But, that's just me. WTF is up with everyone fighting about Oasis and the Beatles?!?! LOL. That's crazy...

Wonderwall-I think its such a haunting love song that expresses this emotion that we wish we could all feel sometimes.

Noel said "when i hear people say this is the best song ever written, i think 'fuck, have you heard Live Forever?'" he said it was about an imaginary girl, and that people thought it was abot his wife and he didnt have the heart to tell her it wasn't about her so he just went along with it

This song has meant different things to me depending on what was going on in my life at the time. I love the lyrics they are so beautiful.

While I was having trouble getting over a guy the lyrics "I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now" meant so much. Because he was one of those amazing guys that everyone just love. And I was feeling like. Wow, I loe you but not having you hurts so much. And know one knows how I feel about you. And no one can understand the better sweet feelings I have just thinking about you.

Now it makes me think of a different guy who things are just starting up with. "Maybe you're gonna be the one that saves me" makes me think of that amazing optomistic feeling at the beginning of a relationship, when you think, maybe, just maybe, this could be it.

I'm not sure of the intended meaning of this song But it has a lot of really strong lyrical moments, that have meant a lot to me.

Oh boy...I have only heard this song once without crying and that was the first time I had ever heard it. It displays my feelings...(need I say more) about someone I love that I don't think I'll ever be able to have love me back. This is one of the BEST songs I have every heard-it is my second favorite right now-and I just heard it on the radio this morning as I was getting up. It makes me think of a close friend. She's my wonderwall.

Dude... I think I got it.. I think this song is about Jesus. "And all the roads we have to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding"
Thats like transcending to Heaven.

And "You're gonna be the one that saves me".. cmon.. It sounds like there talking about Jesus.

This song is about someone saving him from his life and all the problems in it. Noel has mentioned that this song relates back to his childhood, as he had a depressing one. It was full of trauma, and he was often beaten by his father. The message in the opening line “Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you” suggests that he is reminded of his childhood, perhaps when he thought about his life and the problems he was facing at that time of his life.

In the line, “And all the roads we have to walk are winding, and all the lights that lead us there are blinding,” the winding roads indicates his life, and the blinding lights means that his life is confusing, and its hard to interpret what his future will be like. His wonderwall is the person who will help him through his life, which was his ex-wife Meg Mathews.

SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE OASIS'SONGS GOT NO MEANINGS. IT'S UNTRUE.
EVERY OASIS SONG IS A LITTLE POEM AND YOU HAVE TO LISTEN AND READ IT LIKE A POEM.
I BELIEVE THIS SONG IT'S ABOUT A PERSON WHO HAS HELPED ANOTHER PERSON TO LIVE BETTER HIS LIFE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS A GIRL OR A BOY, BUT THIS IS NOT THE POINT. I KNOW NOEL TOLD IT WAS FOR HIS WIFE, BUT I DON'T CARE. A SONG LIKE THIS IS FOR EVERYBODY, AND EVERYBODY HAS TO INTERPRETATE IT. THIS IS THE WONDER AND THE POWER OF OASIS. THEY TELL YOU WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY, THEY DON'T TEACH YOU SOMETHING, LIKE OTHER BAND. THERE IS NO HIDDEN MEANING: YOU READ AND THAT'S IT. IT ALWAYS GOES TO YOUR HEART. MAD FOR IT..

I basically think this song is about an unpredictable relationship. He loves her, and wants to be with her forever. However, there relationship has many twists and turns in it, and it will be painful, however he thinks its worth it"and all the roads we have to walk are winding, and all the lights to light the way are blinding." he doesn't know how to explain how he feels about her.

amazing song. i love it.

i used to date this guy 4 two years and everytime i heard wonderwall...even though i really didnt understand what a wonderwall was for some reason that's the only thing i could describe him as...my wonderwall. that song describes the relationship we had and still have. we went through soooooo much but in the end we still love each other sooo much yet we cant say it cuz we've both moved on. we're now friends and its tough just being friends cuz we care about each other soooo much. he's my soulmate/ wonderwall. "i dont believe that anybody feels the way i do about u 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 iw ould like to say to u but i dont know how cuz maybe u'r gonna be the one that save me and after all u'r my wonderwall" this is my favourite song and i've told him a million times he's my wonderwall he's been with me when my life was a wreck and now despite how i've been to him hes still there for me and he still holds me up even though he has his own problems which i also help him with. i love this song it definitely says everything for us!
