[Verse 1: Akon]
When I see you
I run out of words, to say (Ahh)
I wouldn't leave you
’Cause you're that type of girl to make me stay (Ahh)
I see the guys tryin' to holla
Girl, I don’t wanna bother you
'Cause you're independent and you got my attention
Can I be yo' baby father?
Girl, I just wanna show you
That I love what you are doin' now

[Pre-Chorus: Akon]
I see you in the club, you gettin' down, girl
I wanna get with you, yeah
I see you in the club, you showin' thugs love
I wanna get with you

[Chorus: Akon]
You're so beautiful, so damn beautiful
Said you’re so beautiful, so damn beautiful
You’re so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You're so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You’re so beautiful

[Verse 2: Negra Li]
Nos teus olhos
Eu me encontrei, te encontrei
Como um sonho
Me apaixonei
Me apaixonei
Eu só quero que me ame mais, mais, mais
E não quero que me diga bye bye bye
Eu só quero que me ame mais, mais, mais
E não quero que me diga bye bye bye

[Pre-Chorus: Akon & Negra Li]
I see you in the club, you gettin' down, girl
Eu sei, você me quer
I see you in the club, you showin' thugs love
Eu também quero você

[Chorus: Akon & Negra Li]
You're so beautiful, so damn beautiful
Said you’re so beautiful, so damn beautiful
You're so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You're so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You're so beautiful

[Verse 3: Akon & Negra Li]
Where'd you come from you're outta this world
To me (Oh oh)
You're a symbol of what a big beautiful woman should be (Ooh wee; oh oh)
Eu só quero que me ame mais, mais, mais
E não quero que me diga bye bye bye
Eu só quero que me ame mais, mais, mais
E não quero que me diga bye bye bye

[Pre-Chorus: Akon & Negra Li]
I see you in the club, you gettin' down, girl
Eu sei, você me quer
I see you in the club, you showin' thugs love
Eu também quero você

[Chorus: Akon & Negra Li]
You're so beautiful, so damn beautiful
Said you're so beautiful, so damn beautiful
You're so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You're so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
You're so beautiful

Akon (born Aliaume Akon Thiam), is a Senegalese-American Grammy-nominated and platinum-selling rapper, songwriter, singer and businessman. His trademark is singing the word ‘convict’ at the beginning of most of his songs.

Akon was born in the US but spent much of childhood in the West African country Senegal. There, he learned to play five instruments including the djembe, guitar and drums. Early on Akon signed a deal with Elektra Records, but was later dropped from the label.

His career took off when Lil Zane introduced Akon to music executive DeVyne Stephens, who signed him to his label UpFront Records and became his longtime manager and business partner.
