I Can See You (Taylor’s Ver.) Lyrics
[Intro: Taylor Swift]
Uh-uh, uh, uh
[Verse 1: Taylor Swift]
You brush past me in the hallway
And you don't think I, I, I can see ya, do you?
I’ve been watching you for ages and I
Spend my time trying not to feel it
[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
But what would you do if I went to touch ya now?
What would you do if they never found us out?
What would you do if we never made a sound?
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
'Cause I can see you waitin’ down the hall for me
And I could see you up against the wall with me
And what would you do? Baby, if you only knew
That I can see you
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
Uh-uh, uh, uh
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]
And we kept everything professional
But something's changed—, its something I, I like
They keep watchful eyes on us so
It's best that we move fast and keep quiet
You won't believe half the things I see inside my head
Wait 'til you see half the things that haven't happened yet
[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
And what would you do if I went to touch 'ya now?
What would you do if they never found us out?
What would you do if we never made a sound?
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
'Cause I can see you waitin’ down the hall for me
And I could see you up against the wall with me
And what would you do?
Baby, if you only knew, oh-oh, oh, oh
Yeah, I could see you throw your jacket on the floor
I could see you make me want you even more
What would you do? Baby, if you only knew
That I can see you
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
Oh-oh, oh, oh
[Bridge: Taylor Swift]
I can see you in your suit and your neck-tie
Passed me a note saying, "Meet me tonight"
Then we kissed and you know I won’t ever tell, yeah
And I could see you being my addiction
You can see me as a secret mission (A secret mission)
Hide away and I will start behaving myself
Uh-uh, uh, uh
Oh-oh, oh, oh
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
I can see you waiting down the hall for me
And I could see you up against the wall with me
And what would you do? Baby, if you only knew
And I could see you throw your jacket on the floor
I could see you make me want you even more
What would you do? Maybe if you only knew
That I can see you, oh, I can see you
[Outro: Taylor Swift]
Oh, I see you, I see you, baby
I see you
(I-I, I, I) I see you, I see you, baby
Oh, baby
