[English]

Just brewed a coffee

The morning shines through the window

I don't want to wake up from my daydream

Is it Upside Down? Can't tell if it's a dream or reality,

No matter what I’m doing, baby

I still end up wanting you again and again

Something is wrong with me, darling

Cause I'm so in love

Your lips melts all of my

Whirling frustration

And I’m back in your arms again

What the shhhh...

Teach me A B C

Why is my heart soaked with love? It’s a mystery

Count with me 1 2 3

The history we make together

I want to play a harmony

Forever with you, just like that

Teach me A B C

Our intertwined world is a fantasy

Last night's whisky

Neon light reflecting in your eyes

I don't want to go home, maybe

The "I want you" disappearing into the night sky

The words of love slip away

How can you curve me like that?

You're really something, darling

But I'm so in love

Teach me A B C

Why is my heart soaked with love? It’s a mystery

Count with me 1 2 3

Let's grow our history together

I want to play a harmony

Forever with you, just like that

Teach me A B C

Our intertwined world is a fantasy

Just like that...

Oh baby, can you talk to me?

I feel so unsatisfied like this

I'll never ever let you down

You're the one who lit the fire

Oh I can be a gentleman

I can be your only one

I want to deliver it every night

(I don't wanna die...)

Teach me A B C

Why is my heart soaked with love? It’s a mystery

Count with me 1 2 3

Let's grow our history together

I want to play a harmony

Forever with you, JUST LIKE THAT

Teach me A B C

Our intertwined world is a fantasy

Just like that...
