Lirik "Wonderwall", Lagu Oasis yang Sering Menggema di Pertandingan Sepakbola

RRI.CO.ID, Sumenep – “Wonderwall” menjadi salah satu lagu Oasis yang mampu melampaui popularitasnya sebagai lagu era 1990-an. Dalam ulasannya, Rolling Stone Australia menyebut “Wonderwall” sebagai salah satu rock standard yang tetap bertahan hingga kini. Lagu yang dirilis pada 1995 tersebut bahkan telah mencapai lebih dari dua miliar pemutaran di Spotify dan dinyanyikan ulang sejumlah musisi.

Di balik popularitasnya, “Wonderwall” memiliki lirik yang sederhana, tetapi menyimpan gambaran tentang seseorang yang berharap ada sosok yang dapat menyelamatkannya dari dirinya sendiri. Noel Gallagher pernah menjelaskan kepada BBC Radio 2 bahwa lagu tersebut sebenarnya bercerita tentang teman imajiner yang akan datang untuk menyelamatkan seseorang dari dirinya sendiri. Penjelasan itu membuat makna “Wonderwall” tidak terbatas sebagai lagu cinta.

Lirik lagu “Wonderwall”

(Verse 1)

Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you

By now, you should've somehow realised what you gotta do

I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

(Verse 2)

Backbeat, 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

(Pra – Chorus)

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

(Chorus)

Because maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all

You're my wonderwall

(Verse 3)

Today was gonna be the day, but they'll never throw it back to you

By now, you should've somehow realised what you're not to do

I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

(Pra – Chorus)

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

(Chorus)

I said, "Maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all

You're my wonderwall"

I said, "Maybe (I said maybe)

You're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all

You're my wonderwall"

(Penutup)

I said, "Maybe (I said maybe)

You're gonna be the one that saves me (that saves me)

You're gonna be the one that saves me (that saves me)

You're gonna be the one that saves me" (that saves me)
