Original Lyrics
English
[Refrain]
I'm freezing outside, I feel my skin tight
My coat is inside, but I look up at you
I tracked your plane ride for when you're in tonight
Tell me, when is the next time I'll run into you? Oh
[Verse]
It sounds insane, right? (Uh-huh)
I'll take the same flight (Mm, uh-huh)
Wait at your bedside (Uh-huh)
I'll land right next to you (Mm, uh-huh)
I'm going stateside (Uh-huh)
Where I'll see you tonight (Mm, uh-huh)
Tell me, how did a girl like me get into you? (Yeah) Oh
[Chorus]
You can be my American ha, ha, ha, ha
(You can be my American ha, ha, ha, ha)
[Post-Chorus]
Is it right? I don't know
Yet you're taking my control
Never been abroad before
Now I'm knocking through your door
But you're nice, so I'll stay
Nеver met a British girl, you say?
No one trеats me this way
Are all boys out here the same?

[Chorus]
What can I say? (Uh-huh) What can I do? (Uh-huh)
I'm tryna be the girl that you're talking to (Uh, uh-huh)
And maybe you can be my American ha, ha boy
You can be my American ha, ha boy
Why can't you say that you want it too? (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
I'm flying intercontinental with you (With you)
And maybe you can be my American ha, ha boy
You can be my American ha, ha
[Refrain]
I'm freezing outside, I feel my skin tight
My coat is inside, but I look up at you
I tracked your plane ride for when you're—
Tell me, when is the next time I'll run into you?
[Chorus]
You can be my American ha, ha boy
You can be my American ha, ha boy
Why can't you say that you want it too? (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
I'm flying intercontinental with you (With you)
And maybe you can be my American ha, ha boy

Never been abroad before
Now I'm knocking through your door
But you're nice, so I'll stay
Never met a British girl, you say?
No one treats me this way
Are all boys out here the same?
I'm freezing outside, I feel my skin tight
My coat is inside, but I look up at you

Meaning & Explanation
The song explores the feeling of infatuation and longing for a romantic interest who is abroad. The lyrics depict an obsessive pursuit – tracking their movements, planning a trip specifically to see them, and expressing vulnerability about being inexperienced and uncertain of reciprocation. It’s a playful, somewhat naive portrayal of falling deeply for someone distant.
