Lyrics & Translation

[English]

So if you won't deny

The day so far has brought only love

Picture perfect, you see in us

Pretty tales are made from above

Mm, yeah

Hm, hm, hm

Mm, yeah

Hm, hm, hm

Cherry, cherry lips, so high

Don't you know my lips ran dry

Before you kissed them? Mm

Fairy, fairy tales don't lie

Now my soul is so alive

After you kissed me

Afternoon is for the huggin'

Night was for the lovin' and then I, I

I was falling high

So if you won't deny

The day so far has brought only love

Picture perfect, you see in us

Pretty tales are made from above

So if you won't deny

The day so far has brought only love

Picture perfect, you see in us

Pretty tales are made from above

Mm, yeah

Hm, hm, hm

Mm, yeah

Hm, hm, hm

As I'm waking up at night, as I'm searching in my mind for you

(For you, for you, for you)

As I'm fallin' in these lies, baby, you were just a perfect view

But if you won't deny

The day so far has brought only love

Picture perfect, you see in us

Pretty tales are made from above

So if you won't deny

The day so far has brought only love

Picture perfect, you see in us

Pretty tales are made from above

Mm, yeah (oh yeah)
