TWICE!

Like a bulldozer, like a tank, like a soldier

(Let's go, let's go)

I’ll break down the guard of your heart

I’ll take your heart without leaving a single one (Oh yeah)

This feeling is a big deal, it’s my first time

The moment I met you, my heart won’t stop racing (Oh no)

My heartbeat is popping, the speed is bleeping, it’s getting faster

My heart is racing, my heart is racing

Oh no, what should I do, this is my first time, my love

Like a bulldozer, like a tank, like a soldier

(Let's go, let's go)

I’ll break down the guard of your heart

I’ll take your heart without leaving a single one (Oh yeah)

I like you, you’re definitely the one

(Let's go, let's go)

All these bursting feelings

I want to confess them, filled with wishes (Oh yeah)

...

How should I convey this? Not through emails or letters, no

Face to face, let’s meet and say it with words and smiles, alright (Oh oh)

You know, I could say that I have something important to tell you

My heart is racing, my heart is racing

But I still can’t say anything, I’ve made up my mind

Like a bulldozer, like a tank, like a soldier

(Let's go, let's go)

I’ll break down the guard of your heart

I’ll take your heart without leaving a single one (Oh yeah)

I like you, you’re definitely the one

(Let's go, let's go)

All these bursting feelings

I want to confess them, filled with wishes (Oh yeah)

Let’s jump in, vroom vroom vroom

Into your heart, zoom zoom zoom

The guard is solid, it’s like steel

I’ll push through, going straight, make it real

Like a bulldozer, like a tank, like a soldier

(Let's go, let's go)

Taking a gamble, it’s battle mode

Just the two of us in a tense mood (Oh yeah)

I finally met you, it must be fate

If regrets won’t come first

Now is the time to be serious, I’ll throw it all out there

...
