Hmmm, I Wonder

Hmmm, I Wonder
by: Retsim Laudividni

Hmmm, what’s this?
What are the odds?
I wonder what he’s doing here
Must be some sort of mistake

Fortune is rarely on my side
But there he sits
Seemingly for the taking
Must be missing something

Hmmm, he looks fine to me
Why is he still there?
Surely, many have passed by
Must be a trick

Yes, my eyes deceive me
He’s too good to be true
Such is life, I suppose
Must be another one of those days

Hmmm, but I wonder
Should I take a closer look?
What’s the worst that could happen?
Must be out of my mind

I have got some nerve
To think I’d just find what I seek
Life has never offered such grace
Must be lonelier than I thought

Hmmm, I don’t believe it
It’s really you
I’ve been looking for you
Must be my lucky day

I’m surprised you are here
I would have never guessed
Do you mind if I join?
Must be craving some company

Hmmm, I think I’ll sit
We don’t need to speak
I am just meant to be right here
Must be some sort of fate

This makes so much sense
I think you feel it too
There’s no fooling me
Must be a bit shy

Hmmm, let’s play a game
I bet I can make you smile
Better yet, I bet I can get you to speak
Must be some way inside

What do you think about this?
No? Surely, this will do it then
You’re going to lose
Must be getting close

Hmmm, I’ve underestimated you
Darn, it’s that time
This has been fun
Must be going now

I will see you tomorrow
I think that will be the day
You just wait and see
Must be patient until then

Hmm, wasn’t sure she’d return
This is a welcomed surprise
What is her motive?
Must be something about me

I don’t know where to start
I am the house of cards
She is the wind
Must be weary

Hmmm, you’re quite the challenge
I guess it was a long shot
Can’t say I didn’t try
Must be damaged goods

I was so certain
Yet I’ve failed again
I don’t know why I even try
Must be someone out there for me

Hmm, I wonder
Why do I let her go?
She’s great
Must be something I can say

She’s leaving now
Make up your mind
I can’t believe you’re letting her go
Must be because I’m damaged goods

Hmm, what do I say?
Excuse me. Please stay
I am sorry for my delay
Must be because I’m damaged goods

You silly man
I knew you would speak
Looks like I win
Must be a little harder next time

Hmm, I can’t believe she got me
She’s no ordinary destiny
What more can I say?
Must be that time again

She whispers, we’re all damaged goods
Don’t let that stop you
I will see you tomorrow
Must be nice to be us today
