Finally
Jay Style Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Needed Mr. Right
The man of my dreams
The one who showed me true love
Or at least it seems

With brown cocoa skin
And curly black hair
It's just the way he looks at me

That gentle loving stare

Finally, you've come along
The way I feel about you
It just can't be wrong
If you only knew
The way I feel about you
I just can't describe it

Finally
It has happened to me
Right in front of my face
Feelings can't describe it

Finally
It has happened to me
Right in front of my face
I just cannot hide it

(I just cannot hide it)
(I just cannot hide it)
(I just cannot hide it)
Finally you found me

Finally

Seems so many times
You seemed to be the one
All he ever wanted
Was to have a lil fun

Now you've come along
And brightened up my world
In my heart I feel it
I'm that special kind of girl

Finally, you've come along
The way I feel about you
It just can't be wrong
If you only knew
The way I feel about you
I just can't describe it

Finally
It has happened to me
Right in front of my face
Feelings can't describe it

Finally
It has happened to me
Right in front of my face
I just cannot hide it

(I just cannot hide it)
(I just cannot hide it)
(I just cannot hide it)
Finally you found me

Finally

Finally
It has happened to me
Right in front of my face
Feelings can't describe it

Finally
It has happened to me
Right in front of my face
I just cannot hide it

(Finally)
(Finally)
Finally you found me
(Finally)

(Finally)
Finally you found me

Needed Mr. Right
I was in search of the perfect partner

The man of my dreams
Somebody that I would love, cherish and appreciate

The one who showed me true love
A partner who has shown me genuine affection

Or at least it seems
I think I have found that person but I may be wrong

With brown cocoa skin
He has a beautiful complexion

And curly black hair
He has beautiful hair

It's just the way he looks at me
He stares at me in a way that makes me feel loved

That gentle loving stare
His loving gaze makes me happy

Finally, you've come along
After waiting for so long, I've found my perfect partner

The way I feel about you
I'm so in love with you

It just can't be wrong
Our love feels so right

If you only knew
I wish you could feel what I'm feeling

I just can't describe it
I don't have the words to express my love for you

Finally
At last, my search for love is over

It has happened to me
I've found the love of my life

Right in front of my face
He was there all along, I just didn't notice

Feelings can't describe it
My emotions are overwhelming

I just cannot hide it
I can't keep my love for you a secret anymore

(Finally)

Finally you found me
I'm so glad you came into my life
