Na Na Na
One Direction Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We've got a bit of love hate
Take me to the edge then you hit the breaks
I say it's over one day
Then I'm crawling back begging you to stay

Make up then we break up all the time

Say that I hate a song
Then you go request it the whole night long
Some people say it's so wrong
But even when we fight, girl, you turn me on

Make up then we break up all the time

We're like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah
Always like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah

No we can't make up our minds
'Cause when we think we got it right

We go na, na, na, na, na, na

You were at a party too late
When I do the same all you do is complain
You know that it drives me insane
But when I get with you girl, you make it okay

Make up then we break up all the time

We're like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah
Always like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah

No we can't make up our minds
'Cause when we think we got it right

We go na, na, na, na, na, na

Na, na, na, yeah, yeah, yeah
Na, na, na, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, it drives me mad

Na, na, na, na, na, na

We're like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah
Always like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah

We're like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah
Always like na, na, na
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah

No, we can't make up our minds
'Cause when we think we've got it right





We go na, na, na

He admits that he has declared the end of the relationship before only to come crawling back, unable to resist the powerful draw of the other person.


One of the intriguing aspects of the lyrics is the repeated use of the phrase "na na na" and "yeah yeah yeah," which seem to symbolize the ups and downs, the push and pull of the relationship.

Tenemos un poco de amor, odio
We've got a bit of love hate

Llévame al borde y luego golpeas los descansos
Take me to the edge then you hit the breaks

Digo que se acabó un día
I say it's over one day

Entonces me arrastro de regreso suplicándote que te quedes
Then I'm crawling back begging you to stay
Maquilla luego rompemos todo el tiempo
Make up then we break up all the time
Di que odio una canción
Say that I hate a song

Entonces vas a pedirlo toda la noche
Then you go request it the whole night long

Algunas personas dicen que está tan mal
Some people say it's so wrong

Pero incluso cuando peleamos, chica, me enciendes
But even when we fight, girl, you turn me on
Maquilla luego rompemos todo el tiempo
Make up then we break up all the time
Somos como na, na, na
We're like na, na, na

Entonces estamos como si, si, si
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah

Siempre como na, na, na
Always like na, na, na

Entonces estamos como si, si, si
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah
No, no podemos tomar una decisión
No we can't make up our minds

Porque cuando pensamos que lo hicimos bien
'Cause when we think we got it right
Vamos na, na, na, na, na, na
We go na, na, na, na, na, na
Estabas en una fiesta demasiado tarde
You were at a party too late

Cuando hago lo mismo todo lo que haces es quejarte
When I do the same all you do is complain

Sabes que me vuelve loco
You know that it drives me insane

Pero cuando estoy contigo chica, lo haces bien
But when I get with you girl, you make it okay
Maquilla luego rompemos todo el tiempo
Make up then we break up all the time
Somos como na, na, na
We're like na, na, na

Entonces estamos como si, si, si
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah

Siempre como na, na, na
Always like na, na, na

Entonces estamos como si, si, si
Then we're like yeah, yeah, yeah
No, no podemos tomar una decisión
No we can't make up our minds

Porque cuando pensamos que lo hicimos bien
'Cause when we think we got it right
Vamos na, na, na, na, na, na
We go na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, si, si, si
Na, na, na, yeah, yeah, yeah

Na, na, na, si, si, si
Na, na, na, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, me vuelve loco
Oh, it drives me mad
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Somos como na, na, na
We're like na, na, na

Entonces estamos como si, si, si
