Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woo, say what
Uh, from ‘79 to ‘95, old to the new style
Track fat so we're going back
Way back so nod your head, boy and Gayle
Take it on, Michelle

I think about ya in the pouring rain, yeah
Splashing down on my window pane

I think about ya in the bright sunshine, yeah
I think about you all the time
And I never want to let your love go, it's true
Oh baby, yeah
If you ask me I will never tell you no
No matter what you say or do, mmm

Happy just to be with you (happy, happy)
Happy just to know you're mine
And every day I say a prayer (say a prayer)
That you'll stay with me all of the time, hey
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-doo doo-ooh) doo-doo doo doo doo-doo doo
(I'm happy) I'm happy (so happy), so happy
(Doo-doo doo doo doo-doo doo-ooh) doo-doo doo doo doo-doo doo

My mind goes to ya when I'm feeling down, mmm
Your picture takes away my lonely frown
My heart is with ya when I'm feeling good
I'd spend every minute with you if I could
Baby, know that what I say and how I feel is true
So true, yeah
My emotions could never be more real
Than when I'm making love to you

Happy just to be with you, yeah
Happy just to know you're mine, yeah
And every day I say a prayer, say a prayer

Give me the bomb squad so I can blow up this song (say what)
MTV, they call me this mad expedition
AKA Man terrorizing your vision (woo)
So listen, I'm hard like stone so hell with shining the cannon
Me shoot it far low for Armageddon

I'm nimble, I think I'll change my name to a symbol (oh oh oh)

Oh, so true, yeah yeah
My emotions could never be more real
Than when I'm making love to you (to you, to you)
Happy just to be with you, yeah
Happy just to know you're mine, yeah
