Only Of You

Green Day

I wish I could tell you

But the words would come out wrong

Oh if you only knew

The way I felt for so long

I know that we're worlds apart

But I just don't seem to care

These feelings in my heart

Only with you I want to share

The first time I caught a glimpse of you

Then my thoughts were only of you

I hope that when time goes by

You will think the same about me

Many nights awake I lie

I only wish that you could see

I know that we're only friends

I hope this feeling never ends

If I could only hold you

It's the only thing I want to do.

The first time I caught a glimpse of you

Then my thoughts were only of you

Only Of You by Green Day is a heartfelt song about longing and unrequited love. Billie Joe Armstrong, the lead singer, expresses deep emotions and yearning for someone who may not feel the same way. The song explores themes of infatuation, desire, and the vulnerability that comes with one-sided feelings. Key poignant moments include the rawness in the chorus where Armstrong declares only wanting the person he sings about, highlighting the intensity of his emotions.
