Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How good it feels to hold you
It isn't easy to explain
And though I'm really tryin'
I think I may start cryin'
My heart can't wait another day
When you kiss me I just gotta
Kiss me I just gotta
Kiss me I just gotta say
Baby, I love you, come on baby
Baby, I love you
Baby I love, I love only you
I can't live without you
I love everything about you
I can't help it if I feel this way
Oh I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
Oh tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel the same
Baby, I love you, come on baby
Baby, I love you
Baby I love, I love only you
Oh I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
Oh tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel the same
Baby, I love you, oh, oh, oh
Baby, I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you, oh, oh, oh
Baby, I love you, come on baby
Baby, I love you
Baby, I love you, come on baby
Baby, I love you
Baby, I love you, come on baby
Baby, I love you
Baby, I love you

Siempre te he dicho
Lo bien que se siente abrazarte
No es tan facil de explicar
Y aunque realmente sigo intentando
Creo que comenzaré a llorar
Mi corazón no puede esperar otro dia mas
Cuando me besas solo consigo, me besas solo consigo, me besas solo consigo decir...
(Nena, te amo) Vamos nena!
(Nena, te amo) Soplado en el cielo
Nena te amo, te amo solo a ti
No puedo vivir sin ti
Amo todo lo que hay en ti
No puedo evitarlo si lo siento asi
Oh, estoy tan contento de haberte enc

My dad absolutely loved The Ramones. He sadly passed away in early August this year. This played at his funeral and it was absolutely beautiful. I don't think I'll ever be able to this song and not cry.

I love how a punk band can make this type of music and to be honest, it’s probably the best soft song I’ve ever heard
@demitrisalloum5131
the fact that it's a cover makes this statement kind of ironic
@gregoryblomberg40
