Only Words I Know
Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ever since I saw you standing there
I couldn't get you outta my mind
So I thought I'd come and talk you
But you couldn't understand my lines
Girl its like in our chemistry
There was something that gave me the sign
From the moment that I saw your spanish eyes
Couldn't figure out a word she was saying
But I could see you were looking amazing
Give me some help I need the translation
What does te querio really mean? Tell me

Senorita, la chica bonita are the only words I know
I wish that I could hold you and darte un beso
I want to take you home
'cause I really really like you style
I can see you want to get buck wild
Senorita, la chica bonita are the only words I know
Chico bonito me atraes

Now the situation stresses me
'cause I know what I've got in my hand
There's a millions things I want to say
Like I really want to be your man
Anticipation stresses me
coz I'm trying to get through to you
Body language is the only thing to use

Couldn't figure out a word she was saying
But I could see you were looking amazing
Give me some help I need the translation
What does te querio really mean?

Tell me

(chorus)

Her body's calling
And I think I'm Falling
But I can't understand what she says
Chico bonito me atraes
Dime de donde vienes
Eres de qui?
Me gusta tu estilo




Sabes lo que te digo?
What does te querio really mean?

Overall Meaning

The song "Only Words I Know" by Blue is a story about a boy who sees a girl and is immediately smitten by her. The boy approaches the girl to speak to her but can't seem to get through to her because of the language barrier. The two don't speak the same language, so the boy can't understand what the girl is saying. However, he can tell that the girl is stunning and he wants to know what she means when she says "te querio."


The chorus of the song has the boy singing about how he wishes he could express his feelings to the girl. He says "Senorita, la chica bonita are the only words I know" which means "Young lady, the pretty girl" in Spanish. He wants to hold her, give her a kiss, and take her home because he likes her style. However, he is caught up in the frustration of not being able to talk to her or express his feelings properly.


The song is a fun and light-hearted take on the language barrier, but it also shows that sometimes we can't express our feelings properly, even when we can speak the same language. The boy in the song is trying to make a connection with the girl, but the words he knows are not enough.

Io lo vedo nel calore dei tuoi occhi...dall'espressione,dal modo in cui tocchi...e le parole non servono più,stanotte lo sò,I'm gonna give it to you!Sarà bellissimo signorina,sarai la musa,donami una nuova rima,dammi un bacio,un altro ancora,la passione cresce ora dopo ora!Posso parlarti,prenderti la mano,guardarti muovere,ballare piano.Corpo italiano,sguardo latino,occhi negli occhi,guardarti da vicino.Mi piace il tuo stile,sò come ti vesti,non andare via,voglio che resti.

chien lunaire

non vedo l'ora di andare al concerto!!! *-*
