[English]

3, Dreams and reality intersect

2, It’s the magic of a sweet scent

1, Our showtime just for you and me

Come on, shall we drown together?

Love you, Love you, Love you

Secret I love you

Is our secret kiss an imitation?

Caught like an unbreakable spell

So crazy for you

You’re like an illusion

An electrifying love session

That vague motion

Yeah, tonight’s fiction

You’re like an illusion

Our love session heats up

That bold motion

Gonna fall in love again

A glance away, fingers intertwining, Ah Ah Ah Ah

(Are you feelin'...?)

Cross this line, there's no turning back, night night night night

(Are you alright?)

The signal to step in, synchronize

The pounding beat can’t be stopped

Love you, Love you, Love you

Secret I love you

Is our secret kiss an imitation?

Caught like an unbreakable spell

So crazy for you

You’re like an illusion

An electrifying love session

That vague motion

Yeah, tonight’s fiction

You’re like an illusion

Our love session heats up

That bold motion

An unbreakable magic

Your feigned refusal is an immediate doubt

Moistened eyes,誘う knockout

Sweat blending into art

Finger marks on your neck

That forbidden act is the sweetest I know

If our eyes meet again, it’s the end

I’ll happily go to hell with you

I’ll dirt you up as much as you want

The horn blares warning of danger, but Ah Ah Ah Ah

(Are you feelin'...?)

Once you sigh, you can’t go back, night night night night

(Are you alright?)

Memories of the past synchronize

Don’t care about tomorrow anymore

Love you, Love you, Love you

Secret I love you

Is our secret kiss an imitation?

Caught like an unbreakable spell

So crazy for you

You’re like an illusion

An electrifying love session

That vague motion

Yeah, tonight’s fiction

You’re like an illusion

Our love session heats up

That bold motion

Gonna fall in love again

Love you, Love you, Love you

Secret I love you

Deep kiss, honey taste

Caught beyond the waning reason

So crazy for you

[Japanese]
