Wonder Quotes

Then come the vocals, what the song's heart truly sounds like, and with it the song's purpose, it's lyrics ― will they say something meaningful about my life? Will these words help me through a difficult time, or create a memory that will make me smile whenever I hear this song again?

Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues.
