IT WAS YOU
Taj Jackson | www.Marvin-Vibez.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nobody knows what I'm going through
Some will say they do, but they don't know, like you
We were so young but still we didn't cross that line
But if I could turn back the time
I would tell you the bottom line

It was always you
No matter, were I go I see you
If I knew then that I know today
If I could I would try and make you stay
Why did I thought I haven't found what I was looking for
When It was always you...

She couldn't stay. It wasn't right
Sometimes you can't see the light, even if it shines in your eyes
We were only friends in my mind But now I realize
If I tell you now, you will see the burn I have in my eyes

It was always you
No matter, were I go I see you
If I knew then that I know today
If I could I would try and make you stay
Why did I thought I haven't found the one I was looking for
When It was always you...

It was always you
No matter were I go I see you
If I knew then that I know today
If I could I would try and make you stay
There is a place in my heart, and it's only there for you
It was always you





They don't know me like you
