Jessica
Ray Dylan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Daai sproete en daai dimpels wat so maklik lag
Drome gedroom in die lang gras by die vlei
Hoe ons eendag groot sou word
En altyd saam wees Jessie ek en jy
Jessica!
Hierdie hart brand droomgedagtes net oor jou
Jessica!
Dit was net ons op die strand toe die son sak ek onthou
Jessica!
Kom kyk Jessie baby kom kyk wat ek bedoel
As ek sê ek is op my knieë, net oor jou
Jessica!
En toe dit lig word was jy warm, om my gevou
Jessie ek onthou nog daardie eerste soen
Jou oë se bruin agter die paviljoen
Die wind (Die wind)
Die son (Die son)
Jou mond (Jou mond)
Jy het gevra of ek van jou hou?
Ek lief jou Jessie my baby ek sê dit nou
Jessica!
Jy kan maar glo Jessie baby daar's geen ander een
Hierdie hart brand droomgedagtes net oor jou
Jessica!
Dit was net ons op die strand toe die son sak ek onthou
Jessica!
Kom kyk Jessie baby kom kyk wat ek bedoel
As ek sê ek is op my knieë, net oor jou
Jessica!
En toe dit lig word was jy warm, om my gevou
Jessica!
Jessica!
Jessica!
Kom kyk Jessie baby kom kyk wat ek bedoel
As ek sê ek is op my knieë net oor jou
Jessica!
En toe dit lig word was jy warm om my gevou
Jessica!

Jessie ek onthou toe ons nog kinders was
I remember, Jessie, when we were still children
Daai sproete en daai dimpels wat so maklik lag
I remember your freckles and your easy laughter
Drome gedroom in die lang gras by die vlei
Dreaming dreams in the tall grass by the pond
Hoe ons eendag groot sou word
How we would grow up one day
En altyd saam wees Jessie ek en jy
And always be together, Jessie, you and I
Jessica! Jy kan maar glo Jessie baby daar's geen ander een Hierdie hart brand droomgedagtes net oor jou
Jessica! Believe me, Jessie baby, there's no one else. This heart burns with dreams only for you.
Dit was net ons op die strand toe die son sak ek onthou
It was just us on the beach when the sun was setting, I remember
Kom kyk Jessie baby kom kyk wat ek bedoel As ek sê ek is op my knieë, net oor jou
Come look, Jessie baby, come see what I mean. When I say I'm on my knees, only for you
En toe dit lig word was jy warm, om my gevou
And when it got light, you were warm, folded around me
Jessie ek onthou nog daardie eerste soen Jou oë se bruin agter die paviljoen Die wind (Die wind) Die son (Die son) Jou mond (Jou mond) Jy het gevra of ek van jou hou? Ek lief jou Jessie my baby ek sê dit nou
Jessie, I still remember that first kiss. Your brown eyes behind the pavilion. The wind, the sun, your mouth. You asked if I loved you? I love you, Jessie, my baby, I say it now.
