I Wonder (Departure) 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 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 are my family
This city I love
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 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

[Outro]
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 [?]
