I See You
General Base Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see you when I slip around the ground not well I'm weak
I see you everywhere, give you love, give you share
I see you, I see you, I see you, I see you

I see you when I slip around the ground not well I'm weak
I see you everywhere, give you love, give you share...

I'm going down the street and I know exactly what I see
I see in every face, looking for a special place
There isn't feeling me, I'm feeling it so strong, so free
I reach, I fly your hand and what you want I wanna stay

Get on the floor, non-stopping
You got to feel it, you baby
Don't free the love and show what you got
Not cool, be high, get ensgy, get busy
Not to move to you get busy
Come on in the party, please don't chop
Dee jay, turn it on

I'm going down the street and I know exactly what I see
I see right in your face and sure I know and that's my place




I see you when I'm sleeping and you're around me when I'm wind
You are the secret of my heart, no matter, let us stop

Algum brasileiro ouvindo essa musica linda em 2020???? Lembranças boas

@sidneymiyamoto9055

Sim até hoje lembro-me de 1995, quando a Jovem Pam tocava em Joinville.

@xThunderfox

AMO essa música.. junto com ótimas lembranças, mas outra ruim também.. uma fase em que eu estava passando.. na qual fiquei "ruim" por mais de 1 ano.. Namorada tinha engravidado e não permitiu q eu participasse da gestação. Quis separação TOTAL, integral. Minha filha nasceu em 12/1995, e só a conheci em 03/1996... Após conhecer e CONSEGUIR estar presente, acompanhei em TUDO na vida dela, e aos 17 anos ela veio morar comigo. Hoje ela tem 24 anos, mora comigo ainda.. se formou, trabalha na área.. E AAAMA EURO DANCE.. As pessoas q a conhecem até acham engraçado ela gostar dos "flashbacks" DANCE 90 e outros POP ROCK 80/90...
