Go talk to her
Go talk to her
Go talk to her
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)

Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her

I saw you from across the room, yes boy you are my type
I saw the hair, the eyes, the moves, it's just what I like
I thought if I should come over and conversate with you
My back against the wall and I don't know what I should do
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
And I don't know what I should do

I saw you from across the room, yes girl you are my type
I saw the hair, the eyes, the moves, it's just what I like
I thought if I should come over and conversate with you
My back against the wall and I don't know what I should do
Go talk to her
Go talk to her
Go talk to her
And I don't know what I should do
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
And I don't know what I should do

I saw you from across the room, yes boy you are my type
I saw the hair, the eyes, the moves, it's just what I like
I thought if I should come over and conversate with you
My back against the wall and I don't know what I should do
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her
My back against the wall and I don't know what I should do
And I don't know what I should do

Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
And I don't know what I should do (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)
Go talk to her (Girl say something)

Go talk to her (Girl say something)
And I don't know what I should do

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nasser Baker's song "Say Something" convey a message of longing and hesitation in approaching someone who catches the singer's attention. The repetition of the phrase "Go talk to her" emphasizes the internal struggle and indecisiveness the singer feels. It is as if there is a constant battle between their desire to initiate a conversation and their fear of rejection or uncertainty.

The first verse is sung from a male perspective, expressing how he sees a woman who fits his type, with attractive qualities like her hair, eyes, and moves. Despite being drawn to her, he finds himself unsure of how to approach her, feeling awkward and at a loss for words. This uncertainty is reflected in the repetition of the line "And I don't know what I should do," which highlights his internal confusion and hesitation.

The second verse presents a similar situation but from a female perspective. She sees a man who matches her preferences and is equally enticed by his physical attributes and demeanor. However, like the male character, she also struggles with the fear of making the first move and not knowing how to initiate a conversation.

Overall, the lyrics capture the universal experience of romantic attraction and the vulnerability that comes with taking the first step towards forming a connection with someone you are interested in. It speaks to the relatable struggle of mustering the courage to approach a potential love interest and the internal battle between desire and self-doubt.
