What Am I Lyrics

I met her on a Monday evening
She was standing outside of the park and ride
And I said, "Hey ma, where you been?"
"Looking for a woman like you for all my life"
And she said, "Hola, talk to me, before I have to leave"
And one day we could be
Maybe more than two lost souls just passing by

Knew I was falling when I looked inside your eyes
She said, "I know you are, but what am I?"

Tell me, have you seen a sunset
Turn into a sunrise?
Kiss right through the night?
'Cause we should try that sometime
Hold you 'til the mornin'
And if I said I'm fallin', would you just reply
"I know you are, but what am I?"

(Ah-ooh, ah-ooh)
(Ah-ooh, ah-ooh)

Open the door to my apartment, when we get in
Kissin' on my neck and throw my jacket to the side
And I know your heart is beating quick
And if you put your head on my chest, hear the same in mine, yeah
And we'll be making love
Until the sun comes up
But one day maybe I
I could put a ring on your finger before you change your mind, yeah

Knew I was falling when I looked inside your eyes
She said, "I know you are, but what am I?"

Tell me, have you seen a sunset
Turn into a sunrise?
Kiss right through the night?
'Cause we should try that sometime
Hold you 'til the mornin'
And if I said I'm fallin', would you just reply
"I know you are, but what am I?"

(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
What am I?
(Ah-ooh, ah-ooh)

Tell me, have you seen a sunset
Turn into a sunrise?
Kiss right through the night?
'Cause we should try that sometime
Hold you 'til the mornin'
And if I said I'm fallin', would you just reply
"I know you are, but what am I?"

Tell me, have you seen a sunset (yeah)
Turn into a sunrise?
Kiss right through the night? (The night)
'Cause we should try that sometime
Hold you 'til the mornin' (hold you 'til the morning)
And if I said I'm fallin', would you just reply
"I know you are, but what am I?"

What am I?
What am I?
Oh, what am I?
What am I?
What am I?

What am I?

What is the Meaning of What Am I?

This heartfelt ballad paints a picture of a budding romance, filled with uncertainty and longing. The protagonist is deeply smitten, yet unsure about the feelings of his love interest. He uses metaphors such as the transition from sunset to sunrise to symbolize their potential journey from friendship to a romantic relationship. The recurring phrase "I know you are, but what am I?" signifies his yearning for clarity about her feelings towards him. Despite his declaration of love, he is met with an ambiguous response that leaves him questioning his identity in relation to her. This song encapsulates the vulnerability and confusion often experienced in the early stages of love.
