Hello Little Girl
Aaron Johnson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello, little girl
Hello, little girl
Hello, little girl

When I see you every day
I say, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl
When you're passing on your way
I say, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl

When I see you passing by
I cry, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl
When I try to catch your eye
I cry, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl

I send you flowers but you don't care
You never seem to see me standing there
I often wonder what you're thinking of
I hope it's me and love, love, love

So I hope there'll come a day
When you'll say, mmm, you're my little girl

It's not the first time that it's happened to me
It's been a long lonely time
And it's funny, funny to see
That I'm about to lose my mind

So I hope there'll come a day
When you say, mmm, mmm, you're my little girl
Mmm, mmm, mmm, you're my little girl
M mm, mmm, mmm, you're my little girl, oh yeah





You're my little girl

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Aaron Johnson's song "Hello Little Girl" speak about the infatuation of the singer towards a girl he sees every day but who seems unattainable. The singer greets her every time they cross paths, hoping for a chance to catch her attention. He tries to send her flowers, but she seems oblivious to his efforts. He wonders what she thinks of him and hopes that she will come to realize that he is the one for her.


The repetitiveness of the lyrics "Hello, little girl" emphasizes the singer's persistent efforts to get the girl's attention. He is obviously besotted with her and cannot stop thinking about her. He is hopelessly in love with her, even though she appears not to notice him at all.


The repetition of the phrase "mmm, mmm" throughout the song conveys a sense of longing and yearning for the girl's attention. It expresses the singer's feelings of desperation and helplessness in the face of his unrequited love. The lyrics are simple yet heartfelt, and many people have likely gone through similar experiences of longing for someone who seems just out of reach.

Lindos John e Cynthia, tão jovens.

This makes me wish we had an actual recording of John Singing this. I mean, I know we have the Decca auditions on the Anthology album, but it would be nice to just here John and the Guitar. no other glitz or glamour, just purely him.

Oh Yeah Yeah

You sound eerily like a younger John Lennon not going to lie
