Can I
Alina Baraz &Galimatias Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I told you I could give you life
Would you leave the boundaries of your mind?
I bet you never even knew
That there’s a universe inside of you

Can I take your pain and make it go away
Would you let me be your getaway
No no no no, I bet you never knew
There’s a universe inside of you

Can I undress you

Undress you

Undress you

Undress you

Undress you

There’s a universe inside of you

If I color you with all my thoughts
Would you lose your fears of being lost
I bet you never even knew
I see the universe inside of you

Can I make you feel okay
Would you let me take you to a higher place
No no no no, I bet you never knew
There’s a universe inside of you

Can I undress you

Undress you

Undress you

Undress you

Undress you

Undress you

Undress





Undress

The lyrics "If I told you I could give you life, would you leave the boundaries of your mind?" suggest the desire to explore beyond our usual mental limitations and open up to new experiences.

I cried listening to this once.
This song is a fantasy
A deluxe piece of sound
A ministrey of sound
As I hear the short snares click onΒ 
my life goes on
an open boundary capable of reaching the highest points
Too good to describe
Nostalgic
Happy
Chill
Deluxe.
