Lyrics Tongue Tied - Charlie Winston

Tongue Tied

Now’s a chance, here in France, I’ve got to give it a go
How d’you say I’m happy?
«Estoy feliz contigo»?
No!
No!
Désolé, mon français est un petit peu confus
Parce que tout le temps si j’essaie
Hablo poco Spanish — another stupid English boy!
Anyway, if I say 'si j’essaie' donc I do
Je voudrais que tu saches en français:
Tú mi gusto mucho
Piensé que te amo
I gotta whole lotta love on the tip of my tongue
But the words won’t come like I want them to come
I’m like Old Mother Hubbord getting lost in her cupboard
And I think I’m loosing you
Mmmh
Second go, take it slow, it’s not the end of the world
Enfin bon, ça c’est bon, ce n’est pas la fin du monde
Mais il y a quelque chose que je voudrais te dire —
Listen up!
Écoute!
Important!
Te quiero mucho
La chica más linda
Oh no!
That’s español!
I gotta whole lotta love on the tip of my tongue
But the words won’t come like I want them to come
I’m like Old Mother Hubbord getting lost in her cupboard
And I think I’m loosing you
So give me one more chance let me try to explain
I’ve got the words in my heart
But not in my brain
And now I’m all tongue tied
But at least I tried
To build a little bridge to you
In a moment of weakness I give up on the romance
And I fall for a cliché but without thinking I say
«Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?»
But you turn your back
And back with a slap!
I gotta whole lotta love on the tip of my tongue
But the words won’t come like I want them to come
I’m like Old Mother Hubbord getting lost in her cupboard
And I think I’m loosing you
So give me one more chance let me try to explain
So give me one more chance let me try to explain
And I have my whole tongue tied
But at least I tried
To build a little bridge to you
I’m gonna be a little breach to you
I’ll be a little breach to you
