Lyrics & Translation

[English] Wait a moment, look this way
The viewfinder is always set
It doesn't click unless it's you
Have I gone a little crazy?
Going beyond "friends"
Even a love that's just passing by
That's the world I imagined
Before I knew it, it's like a rainbow
Oh seasons, stop! The time I captured with you
In the photo, everything shines, this and that, all of it
Hey, there's something I want to tell you
I can't stop anymore, these feelings can't be hidden
Baby, into the film of memories
Before you melt away, there are words I want to deliver

The shyness has gone too far, the focus of love has blurred
It's not the time to be evasive, it's careless
Days feel like a trap
In this delicate distance, the scenes we've woven over the years
What colors and meanings do they shape within us?
So, what should I talk to you about?
Even the trigger doesn't come easily, these feelings are here
Baby, let's throw away the lens of friendship
Everything we draw today, I want to imprint it in my eyes

Nice to meet you, it's a special day
It's too late now, what is this?
The heart as it is, how embarrassing it is
Hey, there's something I want to tell you
I can't stop anymore, these feelings can't be hidden
Baby, into the film of memories
Before you melt away, there are words I want to deliver
Right now, I'm in love with you
