Earth, Wind & Fire

Earth, Wind & Fire

Why are you confusing me, hesitating and uncertain?

Don't overthink it, just say yes.

I'll put up with everything.

But I can't overlook this one.

He's just playing some games.

You’re my darling, right?

Are you making me anxious?

Turning everything into ash,

Blowing me away into space in a single breath.

I feel so mad.

Baby, baby.

Ready or not.

Baby, baby.

Make me feel so good.

You’re more than just a girlfriend.

That’s not enough for you.

You’re my Earth, Wind & Fire.

Earth, Wind & Fire.

Why are you confusing me, hesitating and uncertain?

Don’t overthink it, just say yes.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you more.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you more.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you.

I don’t know what you know.

The manners you show in talk.

Manners maketh man.

Etiquette ingrained in me.

Write my name with those three words, gentle man.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, I’m.

Cheesy, greasy, freezy, breezy.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you more.

Living without knowing the height of the sky, such things happen to me.

I think I love you more than my own pride.

What exactly is that?

It’s the fire and star that are my essence, sometimes wind, sometimes flower.

Earth, fire, wind—I need you more than any of these.

Baby, baby.

Ready or not.

Baby, baby.

Make me feel so lit.

You’re more than just a girlfriend.

That’s not enough for you.

You’re my Earth, Wind & Fire.

Earth, Wind & Fire.

Why are you confusing me, hesitating and uncertain?

Don’t overthink it, just say yes.

Baby, wait a moment.

You’re the only one for me, lady.

So listen to me, every day I call your name nonstop, making it hard to breathe.

You’re my Earth, Wind & Fire.

Earth, Wind & Fire.

Why are you confusing me, hesitating and uncertain?

Don’t overthink it, just say yes.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you more.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you more.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you.

Baby, boo, my sweetie, darling, I think I love you.

Don’t know what you know.

한 숨에 날 우주까지 날려 넌
