Say Hey (I Love You) Lyrics
But I be back around the way
Seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing, that I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
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 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 hoped it was you
And when I looked into your eyes I knew it was true
But I be back around the way
Seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing, that I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
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
But I be back around the way
Seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing, that I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I said hey momma, hey momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said hey trippa hey trippa close to you
Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
I said hey Momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall I said, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
'cause the best luck I had was you
And I know one thing, that I love you
But I be back around the way
Seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing for sure
I love you, I love you, I love you
just a really nice happy song about a boy and a girl
I feel that this song is about a random chance of fate allowing you to run into the love of your life in the most random of places. Having ignored the chance encounter at face value, you left the place of meeting> Only to come to your senses after the fact and allowing yourself to return to that place you met in hopes you can get lightning to strike twice.
Probably one of the happiest love songs ever written! It's chemistry 101!

I love this song & the video for this song! Just makes me want to dance in the streets on a nice warm day :)
This was on Weeds and it was so cute.
i know i saw it on weeds too, and i instantly loved the song. amazing.
Awesome! When I think about this song, my feelings are:
This is a song that boils it all down to the basics: I love you, I love you, I love you
It's a song that, to me, focuses the attention on loving others.
The first verse is actually kind of strange, if you think about it:
I say hey, I be gone today But I be back around the way Seems like everywhere I go The more I see, the less I know But I know one thing, that I love you I love you, I love you, I love you
"Hey, I'm gone but I'll be back" sounds like an apology. And then the rest of the verse is so humble (When I travel, it just reinforces my sense that I'm ignorant).
Why so humble and apologetic? And then, shortly after:
"But I don't want to write a love song for the world I just want to write a song about a boy and girl"
So, it's a regret that love is so complicated, and that he would even need to write a song encouraging people to love other people, other nations, since that should be a/the guiding philosophy all the time
From the video-Life is an interconnected web of people, so this song focuses on loving people. That people always outweigh person. That exulting over meeting people while never forgetting whom you've known, is what it's all about. In the end it's about appreciation of all the positive actions--the countenances of two people in love--that we as sentient creatures can make, for it shall always out way all the damage we make. Let's anoint positive sentiment, and always embrace new people, while presumably holding on the ones in your past. It's human nature to reach out. Maybe if we adopt this...

Maybe if we adopt this mentality, less marriages would turn vitriolic, because each person divests significance unto another-it's an admixture of the people we meet that makes us, so you can't just focus on your marriage and neglect your friends and others because to do so is not you.
Reminds me of how I met my amazing girlfriend...freshmen econ class with over 800 students in it. One in a million and just perfect.
This is so cute and fun! I love it. THis is an ultimate "feel-good" song. I love you i love you i love you the part in the video were the grandpa kisses the babies head is SO SWEET!
i typically hate popular sings, but i LOVE IT!
one of few new popular songs i actually like.
