You Say
GEOFFROY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My heart skipped a beat, dropped to my feet
Out in the woods where I stood
For so long from a distance
I loved you whole
But you stay strong
Cold as the morning I met you my love
Do you hesitate?
Cold as the morning I met you my love
Do you hesitate?
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
And you say ohh
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
That you love me baby
Yea I'm just a boy but I'll fight ‘till my death
I'll go blind, if I have to if that's what it takes to
Make you understand
Make me your men girl,
Oh I am ready for you when you say
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
And you say ohh
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
And you say oh and you say
That you love me baby
The song "You Say" by GEOFFROY is a heartfelt and emotional ballad about unrequited love. The opening lines describe the moment when the singer sees the person they love from a distance, and how their heart drops at the sight. The singer then reflects on the long time they have spent loving this person from afar, and how it has made them feel whole despite the distance between them. However, despite their best efforts, the object of their affection remains cold and distant towards them, refusing to show any sign of reciprocation.
The chorus is a desperate plea for the person to express their love in return, with the singer declaring that they are willing to do anything to make them understand. The lines "Yea I'm just a boy but I'll fight ‘till my death / I'll go blind, if I have to if that's what it takes to / Make you understand" reveal the intensity of the singer's feelings and their readiness to do whatever it takes to win over their love.
In essence, "You Say" is a poignant reflection on the pain of loving someone who does not love you back, and the futile efforts to win over their affections. Through its touching lyrics and soulful melody, the song captures the universal experience of unrequited love and its emotional toll.

Out in the distance I saw your shadow
From afar, I noticed your presence
My heart skipped a beat, dropped to my feet
I was overwhelmed with emotions upon seeing you
Out in the woods where I stood
I was alone, surrounded by nature
For so long from a distance
I have loved you from afar for quite some time
I loved you whole
I loved every part of you
But you stay strong
You remain unemotional and distant
Cold as the morning I met you my love
You are as emotionally distant as you were when we first met
Do you hesitate?
Are you uncertain about our relationship?
And you say oh and you say
You keep repeating the same things to me
That you love me baby
You profess your love for me
Yea I'm just a boy but I'll fight ‘till my death
I may be young, but I am committed to this relationship
I'll go blind, if I have to if that's what it takes to
I will do whatever it takes to prove my love to you
Make you understand
Help you comprehend the depth of my feelings
Make me your men girl,
See me as a man worthy of your love
Oh I am ready for you when you say
I am patiently waiting for you to reciprocate my feelings
