What is the song smile by 2Baba all about?

This is a love song. 2Baba who interestingly used his wife, Annie in the visual confesses his love for her. He has fallen head over heels in love with her. 

Everything she does affects him. Her smiles, physique, presence also affects him that he never wants to let her go. He desires to always be by her side, hold her down forever regardless of whatever contrary opinion people may have about her.

Meaning of some words

See the sun in your eyes: A glowing expression conspicuous in someone’s eyes.

Burst my brain means to surprise someone
