About You
Otto Knows Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never really knew what I was missing
Until the night when you and I locked eyes
And even though I don't know much 'bout physics
There's no denying, you got me flying

My head is going like a roller coaster
My heart is singing, "baby, let me out"
My lungs are breathing but I'm underwater
My eyes are speaking and they don't lie

There's something about you (about you)
There's something you do, I couldn't refuse
There's something about you
There's something about you (about you)
And I won't forget, remember you said
"There's something about you too"

Oh, you got me stumbling on feelings
You've seemed to have lost your balance just as bad
Making you see stars under the ceiling
I close my eyes and still see your light

My head is going like a roller coaster
My heart is singing, "Baby, let me out"
My lungs are breathing but I'm underwater
My eyes are speaking and they don't lie

There's something about you (about you)
There's something you do, I couldn't refuse
There's something about you
There's something about you (about you)
And I won't forget, remember you said
"There's something about you too"

There's something about you
Something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you (something about you)
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you (something about you)
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you
There's something, something about you




There's something, something about you (something about you)
There's something, something about you

Nunca supe realmente lo que me estaba perdiendo
Hasta la noche en que tú y yo nos miramos
Y a pesar que no sé mucho sobre física
No se puede negar, me tienes volando

Mi cabeza va como una montaña
Mi corazón está cantando, "Bebé déjame salir"
Mis pulomnes están respirando pero estoy bajo el agua
Mis ojos hablan y no mienten

Hay algo sobre ti (sobre ti)
Hay algo que haces no podría rechazar
Hay algo sobre ti
Hay algo sobre ti (sobre ti)
Y no olvidaré, recuerda que dijiste
"También hay algo sobre ti"

Oh, me tienes tropezando con sentimientos
Parece que has perdido el equilibrio igual de mal
Haciendote ver estrellas bajo el cielo
Cierro los ojos y aún veo tu luz

Mi cabeza va como una montaña
Mi corazón está cantando, "Bebé déjame salir"
Mis pulomnes están respirando pero estoy bajo el agua
Mis ojos hablan y no mienten

Hay algo sobre ti (sobre ti)
Hay algo que haces no podría rechazar
Hay algo sobre ti
Hay algo sobre ti (sobre ti)
Y no olvidaré, recuerda que dijiste
"También hay algo sobre ti"

Hay algo sobre ti
Algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
(Algo sobre ti)
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
Hay algo, algo sobre ti
