[English]

Treasure

You're like a mirage that seems within reach but always slips away

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Thinking of you every day of the week, I'm going crazy

I'm addicted to your love

I'm on fire, this burning feeling can't be stopped

Falling deep, I want to slowly sink into you

This is an addiction, I just can't get enough

I'm diving toward you, all in, irresistibly drawn in

You're the one I've been waiting for

The more I look, the more beautiful you become

You're the sun, I can't hide it

Even if my eyes are blinded

Going straight to you (Wooow)

Straight ahead (Whoa)

Headed straight for you (Wooow)

Straight on, pedal to the metal, whoa

Yo, heading straight to you, crazy in love

Tell all those others to back off

My other half suddenly appearing out of nowhere

Captivated by that dazzling smile (yeah)

I'm different from your usual lost soul (rah)

Unerring steps (rah)

The answer is already you

No choice but to go with it (what's up)

Just head straight

No rules, no guidelines (oh God)

Fuel up my feelings

Heart's engine revs double, go vroom

I'm on fire, this burning emotion can't be stopped

Falling deep, I want to slowly sink into you

This is an addiction, I just can't get enough

Diving toward you, all in, irresistibly drawn in

You're the one I've been waiting for

The more I look, the more beautiful you become

You're the sun, I can't hide it

Even if my eyes are blinded

Going straight to you (Wooow)

Straight ahead (Whoa)

Headed straight for you (Wooow)

Straight on, pedal to the metal, whoa

Nobody can see us, we're above the skies

Awakening only instincts, reason takes a back seat

We're gonna ride, shout out loud so the whole world hears

Hold my hand tight, no turning back now

Heading straight for you (Wooow)

Pedal to the metal, woo

(Wooow)

Head straight to you

Don't stop, run straight ahead, charge forward

Oh, let's go (pedal to the metal, whoa)

Won't stop, run straight ahead without looking back

Oh, let's go, head straight to you

...

[Korean]

Treasure

잡힐 듯 잡히지 않는 신기루 같아 넌

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

월 화 수 목 금 토 일 네 생각에 난 미쳐가

I'm addicted to your love

I'm on fire, 불붙은 이 감정 멈출 순 없어

깊게 빠져, 천천히 네 안에 잠기고 싶어

이건 중독이야, I just can't get enough

난 너를 향해 diving 전부 all in 헤어날 수 없는 끌림

You're the one, 기다려왔어

바라볼수록 아름다워

You're the sun, 가릴 수 없어

두 눈이 멀어도

너에게로 직진 (후우우우우)

직진 (후)

너에게로 직진 (후우우우우)

직진, pedal to the metal, whoa

Yo, 너에게로 직진, 사랑에 미침

다른 녀석들은 싹 다 비키라

동에 번쩍 나타난 내 반쪽

그 눈부신 웃음에 홀려 (yeah)

난 여느 길치와는 다름 (rah)

헛디디지 않는 발걸음 (rah)

이미 정답은 너 정해져

어쩔 수 없잖아 (what's up)

그냥 직진

No rules, no 지침 (oh God)

내 감정에 기름을 부어

심장 엔진은 더블로 go vroom

I'm on fire, 불붙은 이 감정 멈출 순 없어

깊게 빠져, 천천히 네 안에 잠기고 싶어

이건 중독이야, I just can't get enough

난 너를 향해 diving 전부 all in 헤어날 수 없는 끌림

You're the one, 기다려왔어

바라볼수록 아름다워

You're the sun, 가릴 수 없어

두 눈이 멀어도

너에게로 직진 (후우우우우)

직진 (후)

너에게로 직진 (후우우우우)

직진, pedal to the metal, whoa

Can't nobody see us, 우린 하늘 위로

본능만 일깨워 이성은 저 뒤로

We gon' ride, 소리쳐 지구 끝까지 들리게

내 손 꽉 잡아, no turning back

너에게로 직진 (후우우우우)

Pedal to the metal, woo

(후우우우우)

너에게로 직진

Don't stop, 앞만 보고 달려 돌진

Oh, let's go (pedal to the metal, whoa)

Won't stop, 앞만 보고 달려 직진

Oh, let's go, 너에게로 직진
