Am I Dreaming
Akon Feat Kat Deluna Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

See I met him on the beach
In the summer it was hot
We were chilling in the island breeze
Then he whispered in my ear
Mami come on over here
Let me take you to your fantasy
Should I stay or should I go
'cause I've been here before
Should I even up the flow
Get back & let it go
'cause in my head I didn't think
That I can fall in love with you

[Chorus]
And when we kissed under the moon
Am I dreaming
He showed me things I never knew
Am I dreaming
He know exactly what to do
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming
Am I
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Got my heart up in this dance
What a beautiful man
That batchata as we rock on the set
Put his hand over my hips
Started looking at his lips
I'm the luckiest girl in the land
And I can't believe the way you
Got me feeling right

I don't wanna leave this place
Stay right by my side
But in my head I never thought
I could fall in love with you.

[Chorus]

Baby wish we never left the floor, I don't know
Don't wanna be alone anymore
We have something measured out, I don't know
Are you real, am I dreaming.

Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah
Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah

[Chorus]





Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah
Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah

Line by Line Meaning

See I met him on the beach
I encountered him on the seashore


In the summer it was hot
During the summertime, it was warm


We were chilling in the island breeze
We relaxed in the gust of island winds


Then he whispered in my ear
Afterwards, he murmured to me


Mami come on over here
Addressing me as 'mami', he invited me closer


Let me take you to your fantasy
He offered to lead me towards my imagination


Should I stay or should I go
I wonder whether I should stay or depart


'cause I've been here before
I've been in a similar situation previously


Should I even up the flow
Should I balance and change the circumstance?


Get back & let it go
Leave it and accept what happens


'cause in my head I didn't think
I didn't imagine


That I can fall in love with you
I never thought that I could love you


[Chorus]

And when we kissed under the moon
While we smooched under the moon

He was aware of exactly what to do

Got my heart up in this dance
My heart is captivated by this dance


What a beautiful man
Such a gorgeous man


That batchata as we rock on the set
Dancing bachata while we move to the rhythm


Put his hand over my hips
He placed his hand on my waist


Started looking at his lips
I began gazing at his lips


I'm the luckiest girl in the land
I'm the most fortunate girl in this place


And I can't believe the way you
I cannot believe how you


Got me feeling right
Make me feel so good


I don't wanna leave this place
I don't want to leave from here


Stay right by my side
Just remain right next to me


But in my head I never thought
But in my mind, I never imagined


I could fall in love with you.
I could ever fall in love with you.

Baby wish we never left the floor, I don't know

Don't wanna be alone anymore
Don't want to be solitary any longer

We have something prearranged, but I'm unaware


Are you real, am I dreaming.
Are you real or am I in a fantasy?


Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah
Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah


[Chorus]
Refrain:


Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah
Oh eh, oh eh, oh eh oh, oh eh oh eh, oh ah
