[English]

I am really curious about you, the same goes for you

This is enough, a chasing game

Can't stand this attraction and curiosity

Strange you and I, we'll see about that

(Woo) Below the eyes

(Woo) Something that's hidden

(Woo) yeah It’s so bad It’s good

I need to see that heart

Narcissistic, my god I love it

The night shone upon the two

The beautiful black eyes, diving deeper in

You into me, me into you

Hold the breath, love dive

(Woo) lalalalalalala

(Woo) Come on in, love dive

(Woo) Oh perfect sacrifice, yeah

Hold your breath, love dive

Why is a heart so mysterious

A love blooms in an instant

Come inside and see it for yourself

You can come into the deepest part of my heart

(Woo) Time to hesitate

(Woo) 3 seconds is enough

(Woo) yeah It’s so bad It’s good

If you want, dare to dive in

Narcissistic, my god I love it

The night shone upon the two

The beautiful black eyes, diving deeper in

You into me, me into you

Hold the breath, love dive

(Woo) lalalalalalala

(Woo) Come on in, love dive

(Woo) oh perfect sacrifice yeah

Hold the breath, love dive

(Hold the breath, love dive)

(Hold the breath, love dive)

(Hold the breath, love dive)

Hold the breath, love dive

(Woo) lalalalalalala

(Woo) Come on in, love dive

(Woo) Oh perfect sacrifice, yeah

Hold the breath, love dive
