Ik Zie De Zon
Corry & De Rekels Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ik was je verloren
Een ander kon je bekoren
Ik was je kwijt
'k Dacht voor altijd
In al mijn gedachten
Kon ik op je wachten
Omdat ik wist: het wordt een tijd
Maar zonder spijt

refr.:
Ik zie de zon weer door m'n raam
Ik hoor je stem, jij roept mijn naam
't Is geen droom wat ik nu hoor
Jij bent weer terug, die ik verloor

Jij had mij verlaten
Ik zocht in alle straten
Maar ik vond je niet
Ik had verdriet
Eens zou jij toch komen
Ik zag 't in m'n dromen
Jij, die opeens een ander nam
En niet meer kwam

refr.

'k Vroeg mezelf: Wanneer
Komt hij bij me weer
Dan is 't voorbij
Voor jou en mij
Jij zult overwinnen
En opnieuw beginnen
Omdat ik weet: je houdt van mij
Alleen van mij





refr.(2x)
