SIGNAL – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Trying to let you know
I send you a sign, send you a signal
I must let you know
I send you a sign, send you a signal
I send you a sign, send you a signal
I must let you know
I send you a sign, send you a signal
But it doesn’t work at all
I give you a glance and keep throwing hints
But you don’t understand
You really get me so frustrated
I really don’t know why
Once again I gather up the courage
I send you a sign, send you a signal
No matter what glance, gesture or expression I give
It’s no use, nothing works
You just don’t get it, do you
What more can I do to express how I feel
Didn’t realize it at first, but
at some point I started to like you, silly
How could you be so unaware
When will you stop being so obtuse,
Treating me only as a friend
That is not what I want
I send you a signal, send you a signal
Tingling Tingling Tingling Tingling
I want you, I want you
Why won’t you respond
Whenever I see you, I send you my heart
Tingling Tingling Tingling Tingling
I’m waiting for you, it’s all so obvious
Why don’t you understand
Trying to let you know
I send you a sign, send you a signal
I must let you know
I send you a sign, send you a signal
When I smile at you, you really ought to know
It happens too often to be a coincidence
When I keep talking to you, you really should notice
How I keep on hanging around you
Didn’t realize it at first, but
at some point I started to like you, silly
How could you be so unaware
When will you stop being so obtuse,
Treating me only as a friend
That is not what I want
I send you a signal, send you a signal
Tingling Tingling Tingling Tingling
I want you, I want you
Why won’t you respond
Whenever I see you, I send you my heart
Tingling Tingling Tingling Tingling
I’m waiting for you, it’s all so obvious
Why don’t you understand
Tingling Tingling Tingling Tingling
Why won’t you respond
Tingling Tingling Tingling Tingling
Why don’t you understand
I send you a sign, send you a signal
But it doesn’t work at all
I give you a glance and keep throwing hints
But you don’t understand
You really get me so frustrated
I really don’t know why
Once again I gather up the courage
I send you a sign, send you a signal
