Baby only you
Gossos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Va arribar d'enlloc, en els nostres móns.
Jo estava sol al local
Tocant la guitarra
Quan va seure al costat.
Em va dir que bé que ho fas
Deixa-m'ho tocar.
Al terra vaig mirar
I mentre m'estirava al sofà
Ella em deia tu, només tu.
Sé que era divendres,
Sortia del "Rio" perquè estava cansat
Quan un cotxe va parar
I ella va baixar.
Acompanya'm a donar el volt
Que avui jo em trobo sol,
Dins del cotxe vam fer de tot
I ella em deia tu, només tu.
Baby only you, it's only you,
Baby only you, it's only you.
Entro a la classe clapat,
M'assec al darrera per poder dormir,
Ella s'asseu al costat
I jo ja vaig trempar.
La faldilla s'anava apujant
I jo estava al·lucinant,
I mentre m'agafava la mà
Ella em deia tu, només tu.
Estava en un banc assegut
Els aires m'estaven tornant a flipar,
La vaig veure passar
I em va assenyalar.
Acompanya'm a donar el volt
Que avui et trobo sol,
En un prat vam fer l'amor i
Ella em deia tu, només tu.
Baby only you, it's only you,
Baby only you, it's only you.
The song "Baby only you" by Gossos tells the story of a person who meets a girl that changes his life completely. The first verse describes her arrival, which is sudden and bright. She brings life and new colors into his world.
In the second verse, the singer is alone in a bar playing guitar when she sits next to him and compliments his playing. He shyly hands her the guitar and is pleasantly surprised by her own musical talent. As he lies on the couch, she looks at him and says that it's only him she wants.
The third verse portrays his encounter with her in a car one Friday night when she stops to ask him if he wants to go for a ride. They end up having sex inside the car, and she tells him it's only him that she desires.
In the fourth verse, the singer is in class, sitting in the back, trying to sleep. She sits next to him, and he becomes aroused as her skirt rises. She takes his hand and tells him again that it's only him she wants.
The final verse describes their encounter on a bench in a field, where they make love, and she tells him once again that it's only him she wants.
The song is a love story told through the eyes of the singer. It portrays the passion and excitement of a new relationship and the desire for intimacy and love. The chorus, "Baby only you, it's only you," reinforces this idea that they only have eyes for each other.
