Say Hey [I Love You] lyrics

(This one goes out to you and yours, worldwide)

I say hey, I'll be gone today

But I'll be back all around the way

It seems like everywhere I go

The more I see, the less I know

But I know one thing

That I love you (baby girl)

I love you, I love you, I love you

I've been a lot of places all around the way

I've seen a lot of joy and I've seen a lot of pain

But I don't want to write a love song for the world

I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl

Junkies on the corner always calling my name

And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games

When I saw you getting down, well, I hope it was you

And when I look into your eyes I knew it was true

I say hey, I'll be gone today

But I'll be back all around the way

It seems like everywhere I go

The more I see, the less I know

But I know one thing

That I love you (baby girl)

I love you, I love you, I love you

Now I'm not a highly metaphysical man

But I know when the stars are aligned you can

Bump into a person in the middle of the road

Look into their eyes and you suddenly know

Rocking in the dance hall moving with you

Dancing in the night in the middle of June

My momma told me don't lose you

'Cause the best luck I had was you

I say hey, I'll be gone today

But I'll be back all around the way

It seems like everywhere I go

The more I see, the less I know

But I know one thing

That I love you (baby girl)

I love you, I love you, I love you

And I say, rocking in the dance hall, moving with you

I say, hey momma, hey momma, close to you

Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you

I say, hey poppa, hey poppa, close to you

Rocking in the dance hall moving with you

I say, hey momma, hey momma, close to you

Rocking in the dance hall moving with you

I say, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma

Hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma

My momma told me don't lose you

'Cause the best luck I had was you

And I know one thing

That I love you

I say hey, I'll be gone today

But I'll be back all around the way

It seems like everywhere I go

The more I see, the less I know

I say hey, I'll be gone today

But I'll be back all around the way

It seems like everywhere I go

The more I see, the less I know

But I know one thing

That I love you (baby girl)

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you

(Rocking in the dance hall moving with you

I say, hey poppa, hey poppa

Hey momma, hey momma

Rocking in the dance hall moving with you

Come on, hey poppa, hey poppa)

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you
