Girl Like You
The GFs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
And do all the things that you want me to
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
Till that time has come that we might live as one
Can I dance with you?
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
I tell by the way you dress that you′re so refined
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
And by the way you talk that you're just my kind
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
Girl why should it be that you don′t notice me
Can I dance with you?
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
Baby baby is there no chance
I can take you for the last dance
All night long yeah, I've been waiting
Now there'll be no hesitating
So before this dance has reached the end
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
To you across the floor, my love I′ll send
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
I just hope and pray that I′ll find a way to say
Can I dance with you?
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba
The GFs's song "Girl Like You" is a classic tribute to the irresistible allure of a certain kind of woman. The lyrics are simple and straightforward: the singer has been captivated by a woman he's encountered, and he longs to spend his life with someone like her. The song is built around the repetition of the lyric "Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba," which adds a playful and infectious quality to the track.
The lyrics serve to praise the woman's sophisticated and refined nature, from the way she dresses to the way she talks. However, the singer expresses frustration that she doesn't seem to notice him. As the song progresses, he asks for the chance to dance with her, hoping to connect with her in a way that will lead to something more. The chorus sees him finally making his move, and he hopes to find a way to express his desire to spend his life with her.

But us good girls will always win! We just got ourselves out of a relationship where that person didn’t see our worth. Sometimes God’s rejection is God’s protection. They can keep all that toxic s**t over yonder. 😂
