About You
Kapono Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm not sure I really want to go without you
Our small moment that we shared
Is only yours and mine
No one else is really going to know
That I care about you
And all the questions that I asked myself about you
Won't you come and be with me
And then I think you'll know
That if you come and stay you're going to see
That I care about you
Won't you be a high for me
Take my hand and fly with me
Don't want you to cry for me at all
Would you sing your song to me
Tell me you belong with me
Tell me it's okay for me to fall
All the things you tell me with your eyes about you
And all it helped to make me realize I want you
Won't you come and help make up my mind
You know it's up to you
Follow me, I know that you will find
That I care about you

I grew up in Kailua in the 70s on KMCAS- My dad was a 30 year Marine veteran who died this year- This song makes me feel the innocence and beauty of that time- family friends- simple happy times just being with people who loved each other- that was enough- thank god I was able to experience real happiness in my life- thank you C&K! I love this song and YoU forever!

Beautiful! I was introduced to this music when I was stationed in Guam 89 to 93. Some of the best days of my life. Chamorros & Hawaiians are the nicest & kindest people that I have ever met.

Haven't heard this in 30 years. Seems appropriate to have two guys from Hawaii put together absolutely beautiful music - the sound track to paradise.
