[English]

You always wanted to see the moonlight

And I, I just wanted to see your smile

There's a light not far from us

The light will shine through the clouds

We're going to fly up into the blue sky, so slowly

And we held the moon in our arms

You always had me

And you're always shining

...

I've seen a wonderful sight

With a bright glow

You are my sea, you are my sunshine

The star, the moon

There's a light not far from us

The light will shine through the clouds

We're going to fly up into the blue sky, so slowly

And we held the moon in our arms

You always had me

And you're always shining

...

[Korean]

You always wanted to see the moonlight

And I, I just wanted to see your smile

There is a light not far away from us, from us

The light will shine with the clouds

We're gonna fly up into the blue sky so slowly

And we held the moon in our arms

You always had me

And you're always shining

I've seen a wonderful sight

With a bright glow

You are my sea, you are my sunshine

The star, the moon

There is a light not far away from us, from us

The light will shine with the clouds

We're gonna fly up into the blue sky so slowly

And we held the moon in our arms

You always had me

And you're always shining
