But I Wonder words and music copyright 2019 by Mary Ann Vorasky
lyrics
I once met a girl so young / I could tell by her actions
So I asked her to be the one/ I’m talkin’ dereliction
She didn’t say anything / So I walked away
I guess she didn’t know the meaning / But I wonder still today
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
But I Wonder
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
But I Wonder
I went to another place / I knew she’d never been there
But my heart began to race / and I didn’t care
I went from door to Doria / asked for her by her name
They’d never heard of her before / But I Wonder just the same
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
But I Wonder
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
But I Wonder
I still am caught in the spell / for all it seems
I think I’ll never get well / I surrender to this dream
If I’ve been wrong all along / there’s no more I can say
Both the real and the dream girl are gone / But I Wonder anyway
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
But I Wonder
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
But I Wonder
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
But I Wonder
Ah-ha ah-a-a-a-ah
