Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Make me love you

Make me love you

어둠 속에 내린 빛 그림자

더 외로워한 시간들 속의 난

조심스레 내민 눈 앞의

손 잡지 못하고 망설여 왔지만

이미 떨린 맘이 자꾸 겁이 나

비밀스레 네가 손을 내민 밤

Make me kiss you

Ma-make me kiss you

Make me touch you

Ma-make me touch you

Make me want you

Ma-make me want you

K-kiss you, t-touch you, w-want you

Make me love you

Make me love you

매일 다른 세계를 넘나들어

난 나비였고 유혹에 이끌려

어느새 달콤한 향기 가득히

푹 빠져 버린 내 모습 어떤지

멀리 좀더 멀리 하늘 높이 난

저기 하얀 별이 되어 날아 가 Oh!

Make me kiss you

Ma-make me kiss you

Make me touch you

Ma-make me touch you

Make me want you

Ma-make me want you

K-kiss you, t-touch you, w-want you

Make me love you

Make me love you

Make me love you

Make me love you

태어나 처음 마주 본

(너무 따스한 그 눈빛)

깊이 나를 담아 줘 너란 우주 안에서

(모두 눈을 감을 거야)

멀리 나를 데려 가

And make me love you

Make me kiss you

Ma-make me kiss you

Make me touch you

Ma-make me touch you

Make me want you

Ma-make me want you

K-kiss you, t-touch you, w-want you

Make me love you

Make me love you

Make me love you

Make me love you

Make me love you
