[English]

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming

The cosmos I wandered through in my young heart

Spilled tears and lost colors

But I'm with you, every day and night

Embracing all the stars, I'll keep dreamin'

I want to break myself apart

To create a one-of-a-kind bouquet

Glassy serenade

So what if I'm clumsy?

Under the Milky Way, take my hands

To a dream that will never wither

I'm taking you there right now

Even if spring passes and winter comes

My heart will bloom again

Listen to my racing heartbeat

This moment will be remembered forever

Look at these petals that became lyrics

A melody you've already sung

L O V E, right?

L O V E, right?

(I don't doubt it!)

Be my, be my light!

Be my, be my light!

Now then

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?

Hold up hold up, I can't breathe

I'm ready ready to make it

To fit into a single breath

The words for you just overflow

How should I put it? You're the dance that makes me smile

Round n' round every day, an embrace to fill each other up

A dream I never want to wake from, no matter when or where

Gonna zoom zoom zoom

On just you you you

Even if we leave the Earth behind

My heart will bloom again

Listen to my racing heartbeat

This moment will be remembered forever

Look at these petals that became lyrics

A melody you've already sung

L O V E, right?

L O V E, right?

(I don't doubt it!)

Be my, be my light!

Be my, be my light!

Now then

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?

Then I realize

Every flower's language is you

(I'm sure, it's you)

It's time to get you so I

Run run run

Listen to my racing heartbeat

This moment will be remembered forever

Look at us, we've become the lyrics

A melody you've already sung

L O V E, right?

L O V E, right?

(I don't doubt it!)

Be my, be my light!

Be my, be my light!

Now then

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?

[Korean]

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming

어린 맘속 헤매던 cosmos

터진 눈물 잃어버린 color

But I'm with you, every day and night

모든 별을 안고서 keep dreamin'

날 깨뜨려서 만들래

단 하나뿐인 bouquet

Glassy serenade

서툴러도 뭐 어때?

은하수 아래서 take my hands

시들지 않을 꿈에

널 데려가고 있잖아

봄 지나 겨울 와도

다시 피어날 my heart

커진 심장 소릴 들어봐

영원히 기억될 이 순간

가사가 된 꽃잎들을 봐

이미 넌 불러본 멜로디

L O V E, right?

L O V E, right?

(I don't doubt it!)

Be my, be my light!

Be my, be my light!

Now then

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?

Hold up hold up, I can't breathe

I'm ready ready to make it

하나의 숨결에 담기엔

널 향한 말들이 넘쳐

너는 뭐랄까? 나를 웃게 하는 춤

매일 round n' round 서로 가득 채울 품

언제 어디까지나 깨고 싶지 않은 꿈

Gonna zoom zoom zoom

On just you you you

지구를 벗어나도

다시 피어날 my heart

커진 심장 소릴 들어봐

영원히 기억될 이 순간

가사가 된 꽃잎들을 봐

이미 넌 불러본 멜로디

L O V E, right?

L O V E, right?

(I don't doubt it!)

Be my, be my light!

Be my, be my light!

Now then

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?

Then I realize

모든 꽃말은 너야

(I'm sure, it's you)

It's time to get you so I

Run run run

커진 심장 소릴 들어봐

영원히 기억될 이 순간

가사가 된 우리들을 봐

이미 넌 불러본 멜로디

L O V E, right?

L O V E, right?

(I don't doubt it!)

Be my, be my light!

Be my, be my light!

Now then

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?

We're blooming, yeah we're blooming, baby

We're blooming, can you hug me?
