Random fact about song
Musically, Wonder uses minor 7th, 9th and 11th chords to make the song sound more heartwrenching and sad. The final key change in the chorus is again a breakthrough musically for Pop music in the way that it modulates from the original key up 3 keys higher. It finally ends in yet another minor key leaving the listener wondering if the inevitable breakup of the couple has occurred or has the lover singing the song decided to stick it out, suffering and all.

Lately lyrics:

Lately, I have had the strangest feeling
With no vivid reason here to find
Yet the thought of losing you's been hanging
'round my mind
Far more frequently you're wearing perfume
With you say no special place to go
But when I ask will you be coming back soon
You don't know, never know

Well, I'm a man of many wishes
Hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
cause they always start to cry
cause this time could mean goodbye

Lately I've been staring in the mirror
Very slowly picking me apart
Trying to tell myself I have no reason
With your heart

Just the other night while you were sleeping
I vaguely heard you whisper someone's name
But when I ask you of the thoughts you're keeping
You just say nothing's changed

Well, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
cause they always start to cry
cause this time could mean goodbye, goodbye

Oh, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel my eyes won't let me hide
cause they always start to cry
cause this time could mean goodbye

TRADUZIONE:

Ultimamente ho avuto uno stranissimo sentimento
Senza nessuna valida ragione
Il pensiero di perderti mi gira in testa

Sempre più spesso metti profumo quando esci
E dici che non vai in nessun posto in particolare
Ma quando ti chiedo se tornerai presto
Rispondi di non saperlo, non lo sai mai

Beh, io sono un uomo con tanti desideri
Spero che quello che penso non si avveri
Ma quello che davvero sento i miei occhi non me lo nascondono
Perché loro iniziano sempre a piangere
Perché questa volta può voler dire addio

Ultimamente sono stato a fissare lo specchio
Molto lentamente spingendomi da parte
Cercando di dire a me stesso che non ho ragione
Con il tuo cuore

L'altra notte mentre dormivi
Sentivo fievolmente che sossurravi il nome di qualcuno
Ma quando ti ho chiesto a cosa stai pensando
Tu semplicemente dici che non é cambiato niente

Beh, io sono un uomo con tanti desideri
Spero che quello che penso non si avveri
Ma quello che davvero sento i miei occhi non me lo nascondono
Perché loro iniziano sempre a piangere
Perché questa volta può voler dire addio, addio

Beh, io sono un uomo con tanti desideri
Spero che quello che penso non si avveri
Ma quello che davvero sento i miei occhi non me lo nascondono
Perché loro iniziano sempre a piangere
Perché questa volta può voler dire addio
