Words
Mr. Billy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Closed eyes, crying
I hold you close to me
Inside, dying
Emotions running deep
The silence is everything I wanna say
'Cause words won't do
To explain how I feel for you
Words won't do
They just say but they don't speak to you
They can't define me
By how much I care like I do
Words don't explain
How I feel for you (for you)
For you, for you, for you
While we're, dancing
I treasure this love so much
Those worn out sayings
I say about us
And God only knows that I'ma show you in time
'Cause words won't do
To explain how I feel for you
Words won't do
They just say but they don't speak to you
They can't define me
By how much I care like I do
Words don't explain
How I feel for you
For you (for you), for you
'Cause words won't do (they won't do)
To explain how I feel for you
Words won't do
They just say but they don't speak to you (they just say)
(Oh) they can't define me
By how much I care like I do (how much I care like I do)
Words don't explain
How I feel for you
For you, for you, oh

ADAPTACIÓN ESPAÑOL
Un lindo sábado en la noche
La multitud está ahí
Hay un anciano a un lado de mi
Tomando cerveza de barril
Dice “Hija cántame una memoria”
No me acuerdo de la canción
Pero es triste y dulce
Y supe así
Que ha pasado el tiempo
Ven cántanos lindo pianista
Solo una melodía
Y todos me estaban esperando a mi
Es lo que necesitaban
Ahora mi amigo es un barista
Me da mis cervezas gratis
