[English]

Sensitive like the tides, who's in this surreal state?

All possibilities are now fulfilled.

Virtual like reality, real like a fantasy.

How many secrets does your heart hold?

Wanting to reach the heavens and embrace the moon.

Erasing differences, we're drawn to our own kind.

Wanting to reach the heavens and embrace the moon.

Souls connected, we're drawn to our own kind.

Moon Child, the child who embraces the moon.

Dreams remain, through all phases of the moon.

You come, letting the world know of an alternative existence.

I'm here, always here, come and hold me close.

I'm here, always here, come and hold me close.

Diving into the tides, plunging into the subconscious.

All possibilities are now fulfilled.

Like a dream filter, a filter like a dream.

Your heart stumbles, always keeping its distance.

Wanting to reach the heavens and embrace the moon.

Erasing differences, we're drawn to our own kind.

Wanting to reach the heavens and embrace the moon.

Souls connected, we're drawn to our own kind.

Moon Child, the child who embraces the moon.

Dreams remain, through all phases of the moon.

You come, letting the world know of an alternative existence.

I'm here, always here, come and hold me close.

I'm here, always here, come and hold me close.

Dreams remain, through all phases of the moon.

You come, letting the world know of an alternative existence.

I'm here, always here, understanding is love.

I'm here, always here, understanding is love.

Dreams remain, through all phases of the moon.

You come, letting the world know there are always exceptions.

I'm here, you're my only Moon Child.

[Chinese]

善感像潮汐 誰在超現實

所有的也許都得到應許

真實般虛擬 虛擬般真實

你的心坎坎伴吧有多少秘密

欲上青天攬明月

抹去差距 我們物以類聚

欲上青天攬明月

靈魂牽引 我們物以類聚

Moon Child 懷抱著月亮那個小孩

夢在 陰晴圓缺也不離開

你來 讓世界明白另類存在

我在 我都在 來抱個滿懷

我在 我都在 來抱個滿懷

衝入了潮汐 潛入潛意識

所有的也許都得到應許

夢境般濾鏡 濾鏡般夢境

你的心磕磕絆絆終保持距離

欲上青天攬明月

抹去差距 我們物以類聚

欲上青天攬明月

靈魂牽引 我們物以類聚

Moon Child 懷抱著月亮那個小孩

夢在 陰晴圓缺也不離開

你來 讓世界明白另類存在

我在 我都在 來抱個滿懷

我在 我都在 來抱個滿懷

Moon Child

Moon Child

你來

我在

Moon Child

夢在 陰晴圓缺也不離開

你來 讓世界明白另類存在

我在 我都在 諒解才是愛

我在 我都在 諒解才是愛

夢在 陰晴圓缺也不離開

你來 讓世界明白總有例外

我在 你是我唯一的Moon Child
