감출 수 없는 거야 니 눈빛이 흔들려

It's impossible to hide, your gaze is trembling

묘한 시선 속에 심장이 뛰고 있어

My heart is pounding under your mysterious stare

거친 숨 소리가 촉각을 자극해 Crush Crush

Harsh breathing excites the senses, Crush Crush

잠깐만 거기에 멈춰서 똑바로 바라봐봐

Wait a moment, stop right there and look straight at me

숨겨온 진실을 이제 다 보여줄게 자

Now I’ll show you the truth I've been hiding, so

내 맘을 잡아봐

Try to catch my heart

느껴봐 Close to you and close to you

Feel it, close to you and close to you

모든 걸 다 줄게

I’ll give you everything

내가 보이니 Close to me and close to me

Can you see me? Close to me and close to me

가져가 날

Take me away

Up and up ah ah woo

여기가 끝이 아냐 넌 아직 모를 거야

This isn’t the end, you still don’t know

아직 나에 대해 반도 안 보여줬어

You haven’t even seen half of me yet

내 속 안에 있는 비밀을 움켜줘 Crush Crush

Hold onto the secret inside me, Crush Crush

어떠니 어설픈 편견에 겁 먹고 가지 말아

How is it? Don’t be afraid of naive prejudices

섣부른 판단에 내 손을 놓치지마 자

Don’t let go of my hand on impulsive judgments, so

내 전불 알아봐

Recognize all of me

느껴봐 Close to you and close to you

Feel it, close to you and close to you

모든 걸 다 줄게

I’ll give you everything

내가 보이니 Close to me and close to me

Can you see me? Close to me and close to me

그래 봤지 그럼 됐지

You’ve tried it, so it’s fine now

이보다 어떻게 뭘 더해

What more can I add beyond this

내가 다가가잖아 자 Oh

I’m coming closer, so oh

가까이 더 조금만 더 가까이

Closer, just a little more, closer still

Stress 넌 다 줘도 못해

Stress, even if you give everything, you can’t handle it

뭘 기대하니 Next time?

What are you expecting? Next time?

왜 오도 가도 못해

Why do I keep hesitating and can't move forward

빙빙 시간이 카운트 다운 째깍 째깍

Time is ticking down, tick-tock tick-tock

한참을 기다렸어

I waited for a while

너이길 바래왔어

Hoping it would be you

완벽하길 Woah 빌어

Wishing for perfection, Woah, I pray

느껴봐 Close to you and close to you

Feel it, close to you and close to you

모든 걸 다 줄게

I’ll give you everything

내가 보이니 Close to me and close to me

Can you see me? Close to me and close to you

가져가 날

Take me away

Up and up ah ah woo
