[English]

Loving you isn’t just because of your beauty

The more I love you, every glance touches my heart

Because you show me forever, I understand myself better

These days ahead, I want to cherish them well

Love me, it’s sometimes painful, sometimes unfair

If you truly love me, it’s not a given, it’s not taken for granted

Feeling your breath beside my ear, like a magical breeze

Gently comforting my insecurities

So I want to study your smile every day

Ooh, so natural

Forever love, forever love

I just want to love you with my lifetime

From now on, you will be everything

The reason for my happiness

Love is the most beautiful, farthest journey

Along the way, rainy seasons and mud, sometimes blocking our path

Feeling your warmth in my arms, like sunshine and rainbows

Skillfully melting my insecurities

Incredible, proving my reason to love you

Ooh, so natural

Forever love, forever love

I just want to love you with my lifetime

From now on, you will be everything

The reason for my happiness

Your moving eyes, my silent voice

Seemingly the best proof

Let me say it once again

I love you oh (until forever)

Forever love, forever love

I just want to love you with my lifetime

From now on, you will be everything

The reason for my happiness

Forever love, forever love

Forever love

[Chinese]

愛你 不是因為妳的美而已

我越來越愛你 每個眼神觸動我的心

因為你讓我看見 forever 才了解自己

未來這些日子 要好好珍惜

愛我 有些痛苦 有些不公平

如果真的愛我 不是理所當然的決定

感到你的呼吸在我耳邊 像微風神奇

溫柔的安撫 我的不安定

所以我要 每天研究妳的笑容

Ooh 多麼自然

Forever love, forever love

我只想用我這一輩子去愛你

從今以後 你會是所有

幸福的理由

愛情是場最美最遠的旅行

沿途雨季泥濘 偶爾阻礙我們的前進

感到妳的體溫在我懷裡 像陽光和絢

巧妙的融化 我的不安定

不可思議 證明我愛妳的理由

Ooh 多麼自然

Forever love, forever love

我只想用我這一輩子去愛你

從今以後 你會是所有

幸福的理由

妳感動的眼睛 我沉默的聲音

彷彿就是最好的證明

就讓我再說一次

I love you oh（直到永遠）

Forever love, forever love

我只想用我這一輩子去愛你

從今以後 你會是所有

幸福的理由

Forever love, forever love

Forever love
