Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

I want you 慾望着你極留神

I want you, longing for you with all my heart

I need you 試聽你勾引

I need you, testing your tempting allure

What to do 探索你香氣異常迷魂

What to do, exploring your intoxicating scent

Woo~~~ Woo~~~

Woo~~~ Woo~~~

Why to you (Oh no)

Why to you (Oh no)

越坐越近越頭暈

Sitting closer and feeling dizzy

Why to me 喉嚨還在震

Why to me, my throat still trembling

誰咀嚼對白 未吐怎麼去吞

Who’s chewing the dialogue? If I haven’t spoken, how can I swallow?

若未動魄亦 驚心

Without passion, still shocking

You got me feeling woo~~~

You got me feeling, woo~~~

like woo~~~

like, woo~~~

你叫我全身都騷動錯亂

You make me all nervous and confused

You got me singing woo~~

You got me singing, woo~~

味道聲音生理片段

The taste, the sound, physiological fragments

未看穿 別看穿 情願

Not yet seen through, refuse to see through, I prefer to stay in love

可觸碰邊緣

Can touch the edge

Why I still (We still)

Why I still (We still)

未熟落到做情人

Unripe to the point of becoming lovers

Someone else (Like me)

Someone else (Like me)

跳唱有天分

Having a natural talent for jumping and singing

懷疑一觸即發

Suspecting, sparks almost flying

Everything is under the tip of my tongue

Everything is on the tip of my tongue

膽敢一刻跟你在說

Daring to talk to you for even a moment

You will be the one

You will be the one

You got me feeling woo~~~

You got me feeling, woo~~~

like woo~~~

like, woo~~~

你叫我全身都騷動錯亂

You make me all nervous and confused

You got me singing woo~~~

You got me singing, woo~~~

味道聲音生理片段

The taste, the sound, physiological fragments

未看穿 別看穿 計算

Not yet seen through, refuse to see through, calculations

想跟你調轉

Want to turn things around with you

着上你皮鞋 如何確認 這霧霾

Wearing your leather shoes, how to confirm this haze

兜圈兜過界 負負得正 別破壞

Going in circles, crossing the line, positive and negative, don’t destroy

脫去我名牌 遺忘䁥稱 怎樣猜

Take off my designer label, forget the nickname, how to guess

Get it off, get it off, my mind

Get it off, get it off, my mind

You got me feeling woo~~~

You got me feeling, woo~~~

like woo~~~

like, woo~~~

你叫我全身都騷動錯亂

You make me all nervous and confused

You got me singing woo~~~

You got me singing, woo~~~

味道聲音生理片段

The taste, the sound, physiological fragments

未看穿 別看穿 計算

Not yet seen through, refuse to see through, calculations

You got me feeling woo~~~

You got me feeling, woo~~~

like woo~~~ (Oh I’ll tell you everything my babe)

like, woo~~~ (Oh I’ll tell you everything, my babe)

愛上你留低的騷動錯亂

Fallen for the chaos you left behind

You got me singing woo~~~

You got me singing, woo~~~

未動聲色不要判斷

Don’t judge without knowing, stay calm

若說穿 就說穿 再算 (How can I stop reacting too much to you)

If I tell the truth, just tell the truth, and keep calculating (How can I stop reacting too much to you)

這反應未完

This reaction isn’t over

Can I get a little closer to you

Can I get a little closer to you
