When
Black Cats Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna see you in the morning
Out in the sunlight
When the new day is dawning
It makes me feel alright
It makes me feel alright
Ooh when I see you
Ooh when I see you
I will never be enough
I am made from the wrong stuff
You're playing games with my heart
You're playing games with my heart
I am not here
I call your bluff
You are filled
Yeah, you are filled with all the lovely stuff

I wanna see you in the morning
Out in the sunlight
When the new day is dawning
It makes me feel alright
It makes me feel alright
Ooh When I see you
Ooh When I see you

All I want is a life that's worth living
And I am not afraid to take this chance I've been given

I wanna see you in the morning
Out in the sunlight
When the new day is dawning
It makes me feel all right
It makes me feel alright

Ooh When I see you (when I see you)
Ooh When I see you (when I see you)





When I see you
When I see you
