Talk
X-Yle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Keep me tongue tied
When I'm around you
Can't let the butterflies talk
I'll fuck it all up and we'll fall right through
You know I stare at the phone
Trying to fight awkward
Getting through the conversation
I know I know
It should be so simple
But I'm always overthinking
No matter what you do
Already into you
No I can't keep playing around
Fate sealed up
Baby follow me down
Baby I
You know I'm trying
To play it cool and not fall too fast
How could I
Keep it all quiet
Yeah when you're smiling back
I know I
Mess up the timing
I like you I can't hide that fact
Baby I
You know I'm trying
I'm falling quick I can't hold back
Keep me tongue tied
When I'm around you
Can't let the butterflies talk
I'll fuck it all up and we'll fall right through
What would you say
If I told you how I'm feeling
Would we see another evening
Is there a way
If I played the game
Then would it matter what I'm saying
No matter what I do
Always fumbling with the truth
And my mind keeps spinning around
Fate sealed up
Baby follow me down
Baby I
You know I'm trying
To play it cool and not fall too fast
How could I
Keep it all quiet
Yeah when you're smiling back
I know I
Mess up the timing
I like you I can't hide that fact
Baby I
You know I'm trying
I'm falling quick I can't hold back
Keep me tongue tied
When I'm around you
Can't let the butterflies talk
I'll fuck it all up and we'll fall right through
Keep me tongue tied
When I'm around you
Can't let the butterflies talk
I'll fuck it all up and we'll fall right through
Say what you want
Yeah we're three drinks in
And I'm still in the dark
Oh am I in your heart
Am I in your heart
Say what you want
Yeah we're three drinks in
And I'm still in your car
Oh am I in your heart
Am I still in the dark
Baby I
You know I'm trying
To play it cool and not fall too fast
How could I
Keep it all quiet
Yeah when you're smiling back
I know I
Mess up the timing
I like you I can't hide that fact
Baby I
You know I'm trying
I'm falling quick I can't hold back
Keep me tongue tied
When I'm around you
Can't let the butterflies talk
I'll fuck it all up and we'll fall right through
Keep me tongue tied
When I'm around you
Can't let the butterflies talk
I'll fuck it all up and we'll fall right through
Say what you want
Yeah we're three drinks in
And I'm still in the dark
Oh am I in your heart
Am I in your heart
Say what you want
Yeah we're three drinks in
And I'm still in your car




Oh am I in your heart
Am I still in the dark

Overall Meaning

They feel the pressure to play it cool and not fall too fast, but their feelings are undeniable. The singer is afraid of messing up the timing or saying the wrong thing, which could lead to the relationship falling apart. Despite these fears, they are unable to hide their genuine feelings and their desire to be with this person. The repetition of the line "Keep me tongue tied when I'm around you, can't let the butterflies talk, I'll fuck it all up and we'll fall right through" emphasizes their fear of jeopardizing the potential for a deeper connection.
