About You
Tellaman Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every time you come my way I just don't know what to say
Girl you take my breath away I just run out of words
Got my heart bitten fast I don't even know you name
Wonder if I stand chance I guess there's only one way to find out

All I think about is you you you
All I think about is you you you
All I think about is you you you

All I think about is you you you

I'm not usually like this
But baby I like it
Got me all excited
My boys told don't fight it

Wanna get to know you better
Get to hold close girl I
Inhliziyo yami can tell when I
Even my homies know that

All I think about is you you you (All I think about is)
All I think about is you you you
All I think about is you you you
All I think about is you you you (All I think about is)

All I think about is
You you

All I think about is you you you
All I think about is you you you
All I think about is you you you (You are all I think about)
(You are all I think about) All I think about is you you you

All I think about

All I think about
All I think about
