[English]

Nothing, if it's a secret, then nothing

Something, even though I want to give you something special

What kind of thing would you like?

I just want to see you smile

That thing, I'll find it for you

Hey, hey, what are you looking at?

What are you listening to that makes you happy?

Tell me about it, everything

Ooh I just wanna make you happy, oh goodness!

I want you to smile

Even the smile you've forgotten

It's okay, I'll help you bring it back

When I'm looking at that smile, I'm truly happy

What do you want？

What do you need？

Anything Everything

You, Tell me

Gave me a beautiful love, Gave me

Held me, holding this small hand of mine

You're precious to me

I won't let you be all alone

Take me, I want to give you all of me

My heart is an open book

A card meant only for me

Don't forget to come close to me

Ooh I just wanna make you happy, oh goodness!

I want you to smile

Even the smile you've forgotten

It's okay, I'll help you bring it back

When I'm looking at that smile, I'm truly happy

What do you want？

What do you need？

Anything Everything

You, Tell me

Tell me Like OOH-AHH

FANCY me do not

be ICY I'm So Hot

no Good-bye Baby good-bye

Tell me Like OOH-AHH

FANCY me do not

be ICY I'm So Hot

no Good-bye Baby good-bye

The peace of mind you give me

A place to snuggle up and rest

Filled with light, I feel it always

We're dreaming together

A completely sweet melody

A theory that truly heals me

Put it on repeat, listen to it forever and ever

You're my favorite song

Ooh I just wanna make you happy, oh goodness!

I want you to smile

Even the smile you've forgotten

It's okay, I'll help you bring it back

When I'm looking at that smile, I'm truly happy

What do you want？

What do you need？

Anything Everything

You, Tell me
