I ain’t see you

Songtext

I AIN’T SEE YOU [INTRO] Sometimes… Life doesn’t change because of a miracle. Sometimes… It changes because of one look… Or one we never gave. Yeah… ⸻ [VERSE 1] 7:45… Coffee in my hand, Morning on my face. No diamonds, No spotlight, Just another soul Walking through another day. Then I saw you… You walked right past me. I almost said, “Good morning…” But your eyes were somewhere else, And mine kept moving too. Two strangers, One sidewalk, One second… Gone forever. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS] Funny how we spend our whole lives Looking for something extraordinary, While something beautiful Could be walking right beside us. We’re looking so far away… We forget to look around. ⸻ [CHORUS] I ain’t see you… Maybe you ain’t see me. Two hearts, One street, One moment, One chance… Gone with the wind. I ain’t see you… Maybe we were looking too fast. Sometimes what we’re searching for Is right there as we pass. I ain’t see you… Or maybe we forgot… How to see. ⸻ [VERSE 2] Later that day… Different place, Different light. Then you looked at me. This time… You smiled. You said, “Hey, what’s your name?” And suddenly The stranger wasn’t strange anymore. What changed? Was it me? Was it you? Or just the picture You had in your mind? Funny how the same face Can suddenly look different When somebody tells you There’s something worth seeing. Sometimes we don’t see people… We see what we heard about them. ⸻ [PRE-CHORUS] Funny how we judge a story Before we read the page. We wait for perfect timing, While life is moving on its way. Maybe the moment isn’t perfect… Maybe we just need to notice it. ⸻ [CHORUS] I ain’t see you… Maybe you ain’t see me. Two hearts, One street, One moment, One chance… Gone with the wind. I ain’t see you… Maybe we were looking too fast. Sometimes what we’re searching for Is right there as we pass. I ain’t see you… Or maybe we forgot… How to see. ⸻ [BRIDGE — SOFT / INTIMATE] What if… The love of your life Walked past you On an ordinary Monday? What if… Your future business partner Was that stranger You never greeted? What if… Your greatest blessing Looked exactly like An ordinary face? What if the miracle Was never loud? What if it simply said… “Good morning.” ⸻ [DANCEHALL / AFRO SWITCH] Look up… Look up… Don’t move so fast. Slow down… Slow down… Let the moment last. One smile, One word, One little conversation… You never know Where a simple hello Could take you. Look up… Look up… ⸻ [FINAL CHORUS] I ain’t see you… Maybe we were both blind. Building walls, Instead of bridges, Running after tomorrow While missing what was right on time. I ain’t see you… Not because you weren’t there… Maybe I was looking But I wasn’t really there. I ain’t see you… Now I know… Every stranger Could become someone Who changes your life. ⸻ [OUTRO] 7:45… Coffee in my hand. Morning on my face. Same street… Same city… Maybe another ordinary day. I see someone walking past… This time… I look up. I smile. “Good morning.” Maybe this time… I’ll see you. I ain’t see you… Not today.
