[English]

낯설지 않은 이곳 익숙한 공기

모든 게 완벽한 나의 Wonderland

넌 뭘 하고 있는지 내 생각이 나기는 하는지

조금씩 천천히 살며시 소리 내 널 불렀지

그래, 마침내

끝없이 펼쳐진 이 사랑 가득 Bloom

코끝이 간지러운 Ways

널 향해 피어 It's the best way I know

저 밤하늘 가득 채운

빛나는 네게 난 Falling

저 별이 쏟아진 순간 Calling

Only u can save me, save me, save me

이젠 Dream into U

Yeah, 어둠 속에 난 Step in 또 헤매

더듬더듬 빛을 찾아 Show me

Every time 불안 속 헤매이던 내게

증명이 숙명이 되는 일상 No more party

저 멀리 반짝이는 로망 Story

네가 내게로 온 Green light 안아봐 Lonely mind

믿어봐 Lucky sign

모든 진심 맘 깊숙한 곳에 피워 Got it

그래, 마침내

끝없이 펼쳐진 이 사랑 가득 Bloom

맘속이 간지러운 Ways

나를 꼭 안아 It's the best way you know

저 밤하늘 가득 채운

빛나는 네게 난 Falling

저 별이 쏟아진 순간 Calling

Only u can save me, save me, save me

오직 Dream into U

난 네게 Dream into U

나 지금 Dream into U

사랑이란 이름 But

그저 환상일 뿐이라는 아픈 말

우릴 괴롭혀도 괜찮을 거야 Woo

돌아보지 않고 손을 잡고 Run on

밀어내지 않고 나를 믿고 Light on

이제 막 시작된 두 번째 Our stage

이 밤을 가득 채운

빛나는 너를 난 Believing

기다려왔어 눈이 부신

Only u can save me, save me, save me

네게 Dream into U

손을 뻗어 힘껏 나아가 봐

맘을 열어 크게 소리쳐 봐

우리의 끝이 없는 노래야

빛을 향해 뛰어가도 Alright

내일에게 용기 내도 Okay

우리의 깨지 않을 꿈이야

그래 난 Dream into U
