Lyrics
Hola (I say)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I used to be a little better at dancing on my own
Before you put your arms round me
Swept the world beneath my feet
And I was
Just a dreamer living easy, not a penny to my name
Drink away the lonely days, that was till you came my way
And you said: Hola, hola
Don’t remember anymore
And you said: Hola, hola
But I’m sure that wasn’t all
E tu che mi tiravi su con dei film stupidi
Senza dire una parola
E non mi capirai mai, né domani né ora
E tu preferivi la TV che starmi vicino
E come fai a vivere se
Attorno al cuore hai il muro di berlino?
Facevo delle pause lunghe una volta
Ma ridere e ascoltarti per ore
Non mi basta
Ballavi latino americano una volta
Senza tenere il tempo
Come quando c’è casino ad una festa
And I
Never was much go0d at watching movies with subtitles
But with you I didn’t mind it and I guess that’s the cliché
Cause now that you’re gone I can’t watch films without them
Ain’t the same on this sofa
When there’s no one 2 hold ya’
Guess I wasted my time
Trying to learn Spanish
The only thing I can say is hola hola
Hola hola hey
Is hola hola hey
Is hola hola hey
Is hola hola
Hey
E tu che mi tiravi su con dei film stupidi
Senza dire una parola non mi caprai mai né domani né ora
E tu preferivi la TV che starmi vicino
E come fai a vivere se attorno al cuore hai
Il muro di berlino?
Guess I wasted my time trying to learn Spanish
The only thing I can say is hola hola
Hola hola
Is hola hola hey
Is hola hola hey
Is hola hola hey
