I Wonder (Departure) [Live] Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This park and these houses, old streets I have walked
Everything dear, will it be here
One day when I am returning?
My friends will get married, have children and homes
It sounds so nice, well-planned and wise
Never expecting surprises

[Chorus]
I wonder, it's frightening
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, it scares me
But who the the hell am I if I don't even try?
I'm not a coward, oh no, I'll be strong
One chance in a lifetime
Yes, I will take it, it can't go wrong

[Verse 2]
My friends and my family, this dull little town
Buses I've missed, boys that I've kissed
Everything old and familiar

[Chorus]
I wonder, it's frightening
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, it scares me
But who the the hell am I if I don't even try?
I'm not a coward, oh no, I'll be strong
One chance in a lifetime
Yes, I will take it, oh, yes
Yes, I will take it, it can't go wrong

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
