[English]

Call me by name

Where my heart sways

It feels like my time has come

In that sunlight

Riding the rough winds

We’re poets, we’re songs

Just waking from a long sleep

Not knowing what pain is

Call me by fate

Where my heart sways

Where dreams whisper

You break me down and lift me up again

What ultimately makes me breathe

The one who made me believe in fate—only you

I guess we

It’s time to stir it up

And then we settle down

Tell me, Perfect love

What is it?

It’s burning

Feel it, We are young no doubt

I’m such a loser, she’s such a weirdo

No matter what anyone says, I want you

And I’m loving the combo combo

A perfect storm

Navigating through those eyes

Always seeking danger, just like before

I want the truth

Like a searing pain

And it hurts and it hurts and I

I only need you

Don’t try to run away

Even if everything seems broken

Only we’ll survive and shine

You break me down and lift me up again

What ultimately makes me breathe

The fool who made me believe in love—only you

I guess we

It’s time to stir it up

And then we settle down

Tell me, Perfect love

What is it?

It’s burning

Feel it, We are young no doubt

I’m such a loser, she’s such a weirdo

No matter what anyone says, I want you

And I’m loving the combo combo

Our own rules

Even if it seems like the same path, it twists and turns

Don’t worry

You’re honest, I promise I won’t let it fade away

In the day and night, embracing the unknown

I’m with you, deep to the top

The first step of a long journey, no matter where it began

’Cause when I’m with you, I feel like I’m free

I guess we

It’s time to stir it up

And then we settle down

Tell me, Perfect love

What is it?

It’s burning

Feel it, We are young no doubt

I’m such a loser, she’s such a weirdo

No matter what anyone says, I want you

And I’m loving the combo combo

I’m such a loser, she’s such a weirdo

No matter what anyone says, I want you

And I’m loving the combo combo

[Korean]

Call me by name

Where my heart sways

나의 시간이 온 듯해

저 햇빛 속에

거친 바람을 타

우린 시인이야 노래야

긴 잠에서 막 깨어나

아픔이 뭔지도 몰라

Call me by fate

Where my heart sways

꿈들이 속삭인 곳에

넌 날 무너뜨리고 다시 일으켜

결국 날 숨 쉬게 한

운명이란 걸 믿게 한 사람 오직 너뿐

I guess we

It’s time to stir it up

And then we settle down

말해줘 Perfect love

그게 뭔데

타오르고 있어

느껴봐 We are young no doubt

I’m such a loser, she such a weirdo

누가 뭐래 널 원하고 있어

And I’m loving the combo combo

완벽한 폭풍

그 눈 속 헤쳐

위험을 찾아 늘 그랬어

진실을 원해

살 에이는 듯한

And it hurts and it hurts and I

너만 있으면 되잖아

달아나려고 하지 마

모두 망가져 버린 듯해도

둘만은 살아 반짝일걸

넌 날 무너뜨리고 다시 일으켜

결국 날 숨 쉬게 한

사랑 같은 걸 믿게 한 바보 오직 너뿐

I guess we

It’s time to stir it up

And then we settle down

말해줘 Perfect love

그게 뭔데

타오르고 있어

느껴봐 We are young no doubt

I’m such a loser, she such a weirdo

누가 뭐래 널 원하고 있어

And I’m loving the combo combo

둘만의 법칙

같은 길인 듯해도 삐뚤어지곤 해

넌 걱정하지 마

You honest I promise I won’t let it fade away

밤과 낮 속에서 미지를 껴안아

I’m in with you deep to up top

긴 여정의 첫걸음 그 시작이 어디였든

Cause when I’m with you I feel like I’m free

I guess we

It’s time to stir it up

And then we settle down

말해줘 Perfect love

그게 뭔데

타오르고 있어

느껴봐 We are young no doubt

I’m such a loser, she such a weirdo

누가 뭐래 널 원하고 있어

And I’m loving the combo combo

I’m such a loser, she such a weirdo

누가 뭐래 널 원하고 있어

And I’m loving the combo combo
