When I think of you
Ekolu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And on the rainiest days when everything begins to fade the smile you left just brings me back again oh oh ooh
Chorus
And when I think of you a tear begins to fall
While my heart is longing for your call
And when I think of you it brightens up my day and takes the clouds away
When I think of you
I sit all alone and remember all the times when you were here how you eased my mind
Now the sunniest days could never be the same cause the warmth of your love could never be replaced oh oh
Chorus
And when I think of you a tear begins to fall
While my heart is longing for your call
And when I think of you it brightens up my day and takes the clouds away
When I think of you
Yeah e yeah when I think of you
Time is all I need to ease my broken heart
But now you rest where angels like to play
I wish I could share with you the life
I live today and make you proud of me
I hope that your proud of me
Oh oh yeah e yeah
hmmm la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la
Chorus
And when I think of you a tear begins to fall
While my heart is longing for your call
And when I think of you it brightens up my day and takes the clouds away
When I think of you
Yes mom when I think of you
yeah e yeah when I think of you
Oh mom when I think of you
