Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I been watching you get ready, messing with your makeup
Fighting with ya hair
Six or seven outfits, saying how you don't got anything to wear
Must be something wrong with your mirror
Like it ain't reflecting right
'Cause, girl, from over here, you look perfect tonight

I wish you could see you like I do

Hair down, all wrapped up in my arms
If you saw you from my point of view
You'd know how beautiful you are
Sometimes I swear you must be blind
Don't know how you ain't got a clue
Wish you could see it through my eyes
'Cause then you could see you like I do

I could see you on a billboard, Beverly or Sunset
Looking fine as hell
I could see you on the runway, walking with your wings
With Gigi and Giselle
But you ain't gotta be in Paris, rockin' some designer brand
Baby, anything you're wearing is gonna leave me saying, "Damn"

Wish you could see you like I do
Hair down, all wrapped up in my arms
If you saw you from my point of view
You'd know how beautiful you are
Sometimes I swear you must be blind
Don't know how you ain't got a clue
Wish you could see it through my eyes
'Cause then you could see you like I do

(See you like I do)
See you like I do (see you like)
(See you like)
See you like I do (see you like)
C'mon (see you like)
See you like I do (see you like)
(See you like I do) hey

Must be something wrong with your mirror
Like it ain't reflecting right
'Cause, girl, from over here, you look perfect tonight

I wish you could see you like I do
Hair down, all wrapped up in my arms
If you saw you from my point of view
You'd know how beautiful you are
Sometimes I swear you must be blind
Don't know how you ain't got a clue
Wish you could see it through my eyes
'Cause then you could see you like I do

See you like, see you like, see you like)
See you like I do
See you like, see you like, see you like, see you like I
See you like, see you like, see you like, see you like I

See you like, see you like, see you like, see you like I do
See you like I do
