Lyrics & Translation

[English]

So she said, what's the problem, baby?

What's the problem? I don't know

Well, maybe I'm in love (love)

Think about it every time I think about it

I can't stop thinking about it

How much longer will it take to cure this?

Just to cure it 'cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)

Makes me wanna turn around and face me

But I don't know nothing 'bout love

Come on, come on, turn a little faster

Come on, come on, the world will follow after

Come on, come on, because everybody's after love

...

So I said I'm a snowball running

Running down into the spring that's coming

All this love melting under blue skies

Belting out sunlight, shimmering love

Well, baby, I surrender to the strawberry ice cream

Never ever end of all this love

Well, I didn't mean to do it

But there's no escaping your love

These lines of lightning mean we're never alone

Never alone, no, no

Come on, come on, move a little closer

Come on, come on, I want to hear you whisper

Come on, come on, settle down inside my love

Come on, come on, jump a little higher

Come on, come on, if you feel a little lighter

Come on, come on, we were once upon a time in love

...

We're accidentally in love

Accidentally in love

Accidentally in love

Accidentally in love

Accidentally in love

Accidentally in love

Accidentally in love

Accidentally in love

Accidentally

I'm in love, I'm in love

I'm in love, I'm in love

I'm in love, I'm in love

Accidentally

I'm in love, I'm in love

I'm in love, I'm in love

I'm in love, I'm in love

Accidentally

Come on, come on, spin a little tighter

Come on, come on, and the world's a little brighter

Come on, come on, just get yourself inside her love

I'm in love

...
