[English]

Aquamarine

Honey dive into me

I’m not hiding, anymore

I won’t hide

The world is my oyster

Baby come touch the pearl

The world is my oyster

And I’m the only girl

I’m dancing in my own reflection

I’m the ray of light

I’m transforming and realigning

I’ll take you with me h-h-h-h-high

Aquamarine

Honey dive into me

I’m not hiding, anymore

I won’t hide

I’m free

Give me

Give me

Give me

Give me

Give me

Give me

Give me

Give me

Aquamarine

Honey dive into me

I’m not hiding, anymore

I won’t hide

I'm free

I'm free

I'm free

I'm free

I'm free

I'm free

I'm free

I'm free

I'm free

Aquamarine

Honey dive into me

I’m not hiding, anymore

I won’t hide

Aquamarine

Honey dive into me

I’m not hiding, anymore

I won’t hide

I’m free
