[English]

Lucky me

To run into you

I'm alone

I rehearsed to tell you

Pleased to meet you, your upstairs neighbor

If you need me

I'm down

It seems the elevator

Is very cramped

But if you want, love

5, 0, 4

It seems the elevator

Is very cramped

But if you want, love

5, 0, 4

The intercom is on (Uh-uh-uh)

The intercom is (Uh-uh-uh)

Press 5, 0, 4 (Uh-uh-uh)

The intercom is (Uh-uh-uh)

Sorry

For the noise last night

It's that I stayed up late

I imagined you in my living room (Ah-ah)

Make yourself comfortable if you want anything

Make yourself comfortable

Mi casa es su casa

It seems the elevator

Is very cramped

But if you want, love

5, 0, 4

It seems the elevator

Is very cramped

But if you want, love

5, 0, 4

(It's hot in here, right?)

The intercom is on (Uh-uh-uh)

The intercom is (Uh-uh-uh)

Press 5, 0, 4 (Uh-uh-uh)

The intercom is (Uh-uh-uh)

It seems the elevator

Is very cramped

But if you want, love

5, 0, 4

It seems the elevator

Is very cramped

5, 0, 4 (Uh-uh-uh)

The intercom is on (Uh-uh-uh)

Press 5, 0, 4 (Uh-uh-uh)

I'm waiting for you in my room (Uh-uh-uh)

Press 5, 0, 4 (Uh-uh-uh)

The intercom is on (Uh-uh-uh)

Press 5, 0, 4 (Uh-uh-uh)

I'm waiting for you in my room (Uh-uh-uh)

Press 5, 0, 4

(Who is it? Ah okay, you can come up)
