Girl
Ivan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hold me just for a second
Throw me back in time
I feel I'm always pleasin'
But girl you always find a reason

Girl you got to be bad
Girl you got to be bad
When I think of you
I mean nothing to you
When I think of you baby now

See me as I crawl to you
Think of me and I'll think of you
Uhm baby you are the one for me
So I keep looking for your company

Girl you got to be bad
Girl you got tobe bad, yeah!
When I think of you
I mean nothing to you
When I think of you baby now, oh!

Girl you got to be bad
Girl you got to be bad, yeah!
Oh, come on baby, go!
You gotta be bad, wherever you are




You gotta be bad, wherever you are, oh-ho!
Say your prayer

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ivan's song "Girl" speak about a relationship where one person (likely the singer) is putting a lot of effort into pleasing the other person, but they constantly find reasons to push them away. The singer feels that they mean nothing to this person, yet they keep looking for their company. The repeated phrase "Girl you got to be bad" can be interpreted as the singer urging the girl to let go of whatever is holding her back and open up to the possibilities of the relationship.


The opening lines of the song, "Hold me just for a second, throw me back in time," suggest that the singer wants to relive a time when the relationship was better or more fulfilling. The subsequent lines, "I feel I'm always pleasin', but girl you always find a reason," reveal that despite the singer's efforts, the girl is not reciprocating the affection. The phrase "you gotta be bad, wherever you are" indicates that the singer believes that the girl needs to let go of her inhibitions and take a risk in the relationship.


Overall, the song is about the struggles of a one-sided relationship and the frustration that comes with it. The singer feels that they are not valued in the relationship and urges the other person to let their guard down and open up to the possibilities of something more meaningful.

Yo era tu vaso cuando tenías sed
Como en la mañana, yo era tu café
Yo era una abeja y tú eras mi miel
Conectamos bien, te lo juro, bebé
Yo te levantaba con tanto amor
Yo te ayudaba a olvidar el dolor
Yo fui el primero con verdadero amor
El que te enseñó mejor
Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego
Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego
Porque está hecho de fuego
Quisiera empezar otro capítulo contigo
Yo sé que es imposible, pero nunca me rajaré
En encontrarte otra vez
Y poderte amarte como antes
Qué triste, me dejaste con las ganas
Pensé que era tú y yo hasta el final
Ay, cómo quisiera presumirte a mis papás
Porque sé cuánto ellos te iban a amar
Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego
Porque está hecho de fuego

I was your glass when you were thirsty
Yo era tu vaso cuando tenías sed

Like in the morning I was your coffee
Como en la mañana yo era tu café

I was a bee and you were my honey
Yo era una abeja y tú eras mi miel

We hit it off, I swear baby
Conectamos bien, te lo juro, bebé

I raised you with so much love
Yo te levantaba con tanto amor

I helped you forget the pain
Yo te ayudaba a olvidar el dolor

I was the first with true love
Yo fui el primero con verdadero amor

The one who taught you best
El que te enseñó mejor

Wherever I go, I always see you
Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo

You were my great 'diction, my drug, I was your fire
Tú eras mi gran 'dicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego

I want that asshole to treat you with respect
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo

My love does not end because it is made of fire
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego

Wherever I go, I always see you
Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo

You were my great 'diction, my drug, I was your fire
Tú eras mi gran 'dicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego

I want that asshole to treat you with respect
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo

My love does not end because it is made of fire
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego

Cause it's made of fire
Porque está hecho de fuego

I would like to start another chapter with you
Quisiera empezar otro capítulo contigo

I know it's impossible, but I will never back down
Yo sé que es imposible, pero nunca me rajaré

in finding you again
En encontrarte otra vez

And be able to love you like before
Y poderte amarte como antes

How sad, you left me wanting
Qué triste, me dejaste con las ganas

I thought it was "you and me" until the end
Pensé que era "tú y yo" hasta el final

Oh, how I would like to show off to my parents
Ay, cómo quisiera presumirte a mis papás

Cause I know how much they would love you
Porque sé cuánto ellos te iban a amar

Wherever I go, I always see you
Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo

You were my great 'diction, my drug, I was your fire
Tú eras mi gran 'dicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego

I want that asshole to treat you with respect
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo

My love does not end because it is made of fire
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego

Cause it's made of fire
Porque está hecho de fuego

Yo te levantaba con tanto amor, yo te ayudaba a olvidar el dolor
Yo fui el primero con verdadero amor, el que te enseño mejor

Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo, mi amor no se acaba por que está hecho de fuego

Donde quiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo, mi amor no se acaba por que está hecho de fuego
Porque está hecho de fuego
