When I See You
Jem Cubil Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh-ooh...
Ooh-ooh...

Two lost souls wandering through the night
In the dark but I still see you
From where I stand I hear your heart
Beating fast as we hold hands
You're all I want in this moment
You're all I have to see
You're all I need to find me
'Cause I look at you
I see the light come through
When I see you
When I see you

Ooh-ooh...

For you I'd take it down
The walls I built to disappear, ooh
From I can no longer hide
'Cause you see me and I see you
Ooh-ooh...

You're all I want in this moment
You're all I have to see
You're all I need to find me
'Cause I look at you
I see the light come through
When I see you

'Cause I look at you




I see the light come through
When I see you

Saka mo lang malalaman kung gano kahalaga ang isang tao,
sa huli
Sa huli mo malalaman na mahalaga sya ,
Pag napadaan ka sa lugar na madalas ninyong tinatambayan,
Sa lugar kung saan madalas kayong kumaen ng paborito nyong pagkaen,
Sa bus, sa jeep , sa taxi, sa iskinita, sa kalsada, sa foot bridge, at kung saan saang lugar.
Parang unti unti mong mararamdaman na ang taong yun ay wala na, wala na kayo...
Wala na bang pagasa ?
Madalas mong tanungin sarili mo na bakit mo hinayaang mawala ang taong yun,
Parang sa una eh ok, pero habang tumatagal marerealize mo dala dala nya pala puso mo nung umalis sya at nagpaalam...

Halik , yakap, paglalambing, mgkahawak ang mga kamay na naglalakad kung saan.
Mga simpleng bagay na ngayon mo lang malalaman na mahalaga kapag wala na.
