If You Only Knew
Jacoo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm stumbling with every step
I feel that beating in my chest
Can you hear it?
The words are tangled up inside
Emotions trapped within my mind
Do I show my heart or do I hide?
Am I crazy, or maybe
This might be something real?
Under the surface and nerves and the logic
Do you feel what I feel?
There's something 'bout the two of us
There's no denying, there's no denying
I'm hypnotized, it's such a rush
Don't want to hide it, don't want to hide it
Each breath, I'm trying to keep my cool
Each step, I don't know what to do
All the consequence is in the truth
If you only knew
Can't spend forever holding back
The light is shining through the cracks
There's magic here behind our mask
Can you feel it?
Am I crazy, or maybe
This might be something real?
Under the surface and nerves and the logic
Do you feel what I feel?
There's something 'bout the two of us
There's no denying, there's no denying
I'm hypnotized, it's such a rush
Don't want to hide it, don't want to hide it
Each breath, I'm trying to keep my cool Each step, I don't know what to do
All the consequence is in the truth
If you only knew If you only knew
The wheels are spinning in my head
There's something 'bout the two of us
There's no denying, there's no denying
I'm hypnotized, it's such a rush
Don't want to hide it, don't want to hide it
Each breath, I'm trying to keep my cool
Each step, I don't know what to do
All the consequence is in the truth
If you only knew If you only knew
The lyrics of Jacoo's song "If you only knew" describe the inner conflict of someone who has strong emotions for another person but is unsure whether to express those feelings or keep them hidden. The singer's mind is consumed with thoughts of this person and they feel a physical sensation in their chest. The words they want to say to this person are tangled up inside their mind and they question whether they should reveal their heart or keep it hidden.
The singer acknowledges the possibility that they may be crazy or imagining things, but they cannot ignore the strong connection they feel with this other person. They describe it as a rush, a hypnotic feeling that they don't want to hide. However, they are also fearful of the consequences that come with revealing their true feelings, and they are unsure of how to proceed.
Overall, the song captures the vulnerability and uncertainty that often accompany the early stages of a romantic relationship. It portrays the internal struggle of deciding whether to take a risk and be honest with oneself and the other person, or to play it safe and keep those feelings hidden.

***** Guess why everyone loves Uppermost, because the word Most is in it which is a appledrink with alcohol but don't exchange it with Somersby

This song makes me homesick
Not because it makes me sad
Because it takes me so far away
But now that I am back home it just is not the same
Not because it is ruined
Because I returned with a smile
