In The Air Tonight
Alex Midi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin,
I know where you've been
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, Oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord
I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget,
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up,
Ho you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show
But the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, Oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget,
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up,
No you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show
But the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
But I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord，oh Lord
But I've been baby
see you can no

But I don't know if you know who I am
You may not remember me
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw your actions firsthand
I saw it with my own two eyes

I understand why you're keeping quiet
Ho you don't fool me
You're not fooling me

I was going to share this with my parents as a cool remake to a song they loved. After seeing the video, I think I'll refrain lol.
