Hide and Seek
5 Star Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm searching everywhere
To find your love
I had to play so hard to get
And I hadn't found out yet where you are
You know I find just what you got
Here I come ready or not
It's just a game with me
Hide and seek
Swear I'm gonna find you
Sneaking up behind you
Hide and seek
(Hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
When I try so hard to see
When you keep this mystery
Around our love
Every simple breath you take
Always makes the love we make seem so new, yeah
You're up to your old tricks again
I close my eyes and count to ten
Hide and seek
It's just a game with me
Hide and seek
Swear I'm gonna find you
Sneaking up behind you
Hide and seek
(Hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Time
Hide and seek
Hide and seek
(Hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Sneaking up on us
But it's only a question of time
Question of time
Time
You know I find just what you got
Here I come ready or not
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
It's just a game with me
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Swear I'm gonna find you
Sneaking up behind you
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
It's just a game with me
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Swear I'm gonna find you
Sneaking up behind you
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
I'm gonna find (hide and seek)
(Hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Gonna find you boy
I'm gonna sneak you out (hide and seek)
(Hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
I'm gonna find you boy
Swear I'm gonna find you
Sneaking up behind you
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Oooh oooh it's just a game
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
A game we play
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
I'm gonna find you boy
Swear I'm gonna find you
Sneaking up behind you
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Get ready, get ready
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Yeah
Get ready, hide and seek
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
Gonna find you boy
Swear I'm gonna find you
Sneaking up behind you
Hide and seek (hide and seek, hide and seek, hide and seek)
The opening lines of the song suggest that the singer is on a hunt to find love. He feels like he has been playing a game of hide and seek, chasing after something that he can't quite seem to grasp. The song unfolds like a game of hide and seek, with the singer constantly searching for his partner's love. The lyrics suggest that his partner is elusive and mysterious, adding to the challenge of finding love. In the chorus, the singer repeats the phrase "hide and seek" like a mantra, implying that the game is ongoing and never-ending.
The lyrics also suggest that the singer is willing to do what it takes to find love. He is willing to sneak up behind his partner and take risks in order to find what he is looking for. The line "you're up to your old tricks again" implies that his partner has been playing this game for a while, perhaps leading the singer on and off over time. The final line of the song, "gonna find you boy," suggests that the singer will keep trying and never give up until he finds what he's looking for.

When I'm looking here and there
I search for you everywhere
And I'm searching everywhere
I look high and low for your love
To find your love
I'm searching for your affection
I had to play so hard to get
I had to work for your love
And I hadn't found out yet where you are
I haven't located you yet
You know I find just what you got
I find exactly what you offer
Here I come ready or not
I'm coming for you, prepared or not
It's just a game with me
I treat our love like a game
Swear I'm gonna find you
I promise to locate you
Sneaking up behind you
I'll approach you stealthily
When I try so hard to see
I make an effort to understand you
When you keep this mystery
When you remain enigmatic
Around our love
In regards to our relationship
Every simple breath you take
Every inhalation you take
Always makes the love we make seem so new, yeah
It always renews our love
You're up to your old tricks again
You are acting the same way as before
I close my eyes and count to ten
I take a moment to compose myself
Time
Time is passing
Sneaking up on us
Time is approaching us
But it's only a question of time
It's just a matter of time
Question of time
Just a brief moment of time
I'm gonna find (hide and seek)
I will find you
Gonna find you boy
I'm going to find you
Oooh oooh it's just a game
It's merely a game to me
A game we play
It's a game we both engage in
Get ready, get ready
Prepare yourself
Yeah
Indeed
Get ready, hide and seek
Prepare yourself for our game

The 80βs were the best. This version is what I grew up on. I didnβt hear the new edition version until 2016. This song brings back the best memories. I wish I was there again π
