Lyrics

Hypotheticals

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Obviously, we’re at the beginning of something

I don’t expect you to know where it’s gonna go

But I believe we might be onto something

And I just thought maybe you should know

I’ve been playing out a lot of hypotheticals in my mind

I’ve been writing your name down next to mine

Been imagining all the things you and I could do (ooh, ooh)

I’ve seen all the possibilities in my dreams

You’re alone, when you should really be next to me

Baby, let’s not wait and see

Immediate action isn’t necessary

It’s a fatal attraction, it’s a little scary

But I got a plan of attack

And I’ll get us there someday soon, I know it

I got a Plan A, and I got a Plan B

And if it’s absolutely necessary, we’ll go to Plan C

Whatever I gotta do to be with you (ooh, ooh)

I’ve been playing out a lot of hypotheticals in my mind

I’ve been writing your name down next to mine

Been imagining all the things you and I could do (ooh, ooh)

I’ve seen all the possibilities in my dreams

You’re alone, when you should really be next to me

Baby, let’s not wait and see

Nobody can see into the future

Even the weatherman gets caught in the rain

Sometimes

But I see something in you that I’ve never seen before

And I can’t be sure, no, maybe not

But I think it’s worth a shot

Hypothetically, yes

Theoretically, forever

We’ll see what happens

But I hope we will never be apart

Hypothetically, yes

Theoretically, forever

We’ll see what happens

But I hope we will never be apart

Oh, hypothetically, yes

Theoretically, forever

We’ll see what happens

But I hope we will never be apart

Oh, hypothetically, yes

Theoretically, forever

We’ll see what happens

But I hope we will never be apart

I’ve been playing out a lot of hypotheticals in my mind

(Playing out a lot of hypotheticals)

I’ve been writing your name down next to mine

(I’ve been playing your name down next to mine)

Been imagining all the things you and I could do

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

I’ve seen all the possibilities in my dreams

I’ve seen all the possibilities in my dreams

(All the possibilities)

You’re alone, when you should really be next to me

(Oh, yeah)

Baby, let’s not wait and see
