Charli XCX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I love you too
You know I love you too
Lookin' at you, lookin' at me
We think the same things
I wanna take this seriously, oh (oh)
Don't wanna dance alone
You're made of glass, I'm made of stone
One more thing to say before you go
I don't talk a lot, talk a lot
So you should listen up, I mean it when I say
I'm not afraid, it's okay
You know I love you too, I love you too
I love you too, I love you too
You know I love you too
Now you're with me, and now I'm with you
We're here forever
How does it feel knowing the truth, oh? (oh)
Don't wanna dance alone
So come here with me
You're in a class all of your own
One more thing I've got to let you know
I don't talk a lot, talk a lot
So you should listen up, I mean it when I say
I'm not afraid, it's okay
You know I love you too, I love you too
I love you too, I love you too
You know I love you too
You know I never really thought about
How it feels to say these words aloud
It's so weird, but it's true
Do you ever even think about
How it feels when you are not around?
I'm gonna stay here, 'cause I love you too
'Cause I love you too
I don't talk a lot, talk a lot
So you should listen up, I mean it when I say
I'm not afraid, it's okay
You know I love you too, I love you too
I love you too, I love you too
You know I love you too
I love you too, I love you too, I love you too
You know I love you too

Eu quero levar isso a sério, oh (oh)
Não quero dançar sozinha
Então venha aqui comigo
Você é feito de vidro, eu sou feita de pedra
Só mais uma coisa a dizer antes de ir

Então, você deve ouvir, quero dizer que quando eu digo
Que eu não tenho medo, está tudo bem
Você sabe que eu te amo também,eu te amo também

Agora você está comigo, agora eu estou com você

Só mais uma coisa que eu tenho que deixar você saber

Você sabe que eu te amo também,eu te amo também

É tão estranho, mas é verdade

Como se sente quando você não estavam em torno de
Mas eu ficar aqui porque eu também te amo
Eu não falo muito, não falo muito
Então, você deve ouvir, quero dizer que quando eu digo
Que eu não tenho medo, está tudo bem
Você sabe que eu te amo também,eu te amo também
Eu também te amo, eu te amo também
Você sabe que eu te amo também

Almost all comments are 3+ years old. I’ve listened to the song (and mixtape) for years too, it’s so gooood. This song is simply perfection, it deserves more than a dozen times the views and likes it has.

shy girl anthem <3
@MozartHerbert
This should be on her next album and could easily be worked as a proper single for mainstream charts, it's one of the best pop songs of 2017.
