Explanation Of Oasis Lyrics
From the man who believes you have the right to know - Ron Gibber

This week: Wonderwall                                                   

Today                                                                                Today
Is gonna be the day                          Is going to be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you      That they are going to throw the tennis ball back to you, from                                              next door's garden
By now                                       By now
You shoulda somehow                          You should have somehow
Realised what you've gotta do                Realised what you have to do to stop the balls going over

I don't beleive that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

Backbeat                                     Backbeat (the act of beating a ball back over)
The word is on the street                    The word is on the street
That the fire in you heart is out            That you've lost all passion in your attempts to keep the ball                                              where it belongs 
I'm sure                                     
I'm sure
You've heard it all before                   You've heard all these rumours before
But you never really had a doubt             But we both know that you are pretty damn good at stopping                                              those balls generally

I don't beleive that anybody                 
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads we have to walk            (The winding roads and blinding lights are symbolic of an unsure Are winding                                  future as regards the tennis ball)
And all the lights that light the way
Are blinding
And there are many things that I
Would like to say to you
But I don't know how                         
(It soon becomes clear why this communication problem is                                              present)
But maybe                                    But maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me        You are going to be the one that saves any more balls from going                                              over
And afterall                                 And afterall
You're my wonderwall                         You are a very nice wall (the implication here is that the wall is nice                                              and tall and hard to hit tennis balls over, also the fact that the song                                              is addressed to the garden wall itself explains the communication                                              problems)

Etc.
