The lyrics of BTOB's "Ello Ello" express the desire of the singer to confess his love to someone special. The song starts by setting the tone, with the singer feeling content and happy. He thinks about the person he likes and how he wants to only be with her. He spends nights dreaming of her and feels the urge to tell her about his feelings. The chorus of the song is catchy and repeats the phrase "ello ello" multiple times, conveying his eagerness to connect with her.
The second verse talks about how the singer is consumed with thoughts of his beloved, to the point where he has trouble sleeping, and all he can think of are the many things he wants to say to her. The singer is nervous as he contemplates confessing his love, but he knows he must make the leap and tell her how he feels.
Overall, "Ello Ello" is a heartfelt confession of love that paints a vivid picture of the singer's emotions and desire to be with the one he loves.
