[English]

You can be my ghost girl

You can take my soul, girl

나를 잃은 채 전부 잊을게 real world

You can be my ghost girl

You can be my ghost girl

내 심장을 틀어쥐어

지배당한 채 나의 모든 걸 넘겨

You can be my ghost girl

I feel you 발 닿는 곳 그 어디든

꼭 씐 듯해 너에게 전부

질식할 듯한 감정

너만이 내 숨, 너만이 내 truth

You're the one I don't wanna lose

지독하게 열이 올라

오늘도 널 앓아

뒤척여 every night in my bed

환청처럼 울린 alarm

두 눈을 뜬 순간

아른거리는 너의 silhouette

You can be my ghost girl

You can take my soul, girl

나를 잃은 채 전부 잊을게 real world

You can be my ghost girl (hey-ey-ey)

You can be my ghost girl

내 심장을 틀어쥐어

지배당한 채 나의 모든 걸 넘겨

You can be my ghost girl (hey-ey-ey)

All of my friends 날 보곤 답 없대

And I don't really care, I don't really care

지옥마저 천국일 테니

Baby 함께 있어 주길

I love it nothing gets me scared

Darling 너와 함께라면

걸어가 through the dark

미친놈이래도 뭐 어때

너로 인해 숨 쉬는 나

따라가 where you are

어떤 이별조차 초월해

You can be my ghost girl

Come and takе my soul, girl

영혼을 다 쏟고도 또 건네는 heart

You can be my ghost girl (hey-еy-ey)

You can be my ghost girl

나를 잠식해도

오직 너만이 나를 숨 쉬게 한걸

You can be my ghost girl (hey-ey-ey)

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

(You can be my ghost girl)

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

(You can be my ghost girl)

I just wanna be with you

I just wanna stay with you

I just wanna live and die with you

You can be my ghost girl

...
