[English]

We are Rocket Power, flying from Aeroparque

Another city isn't waiting, Let's go, come on

Come find me, I'm arriving late

I just want to go

To a place we didn't go to next

The destination doesn't matter, the

hours don't matter, we're together

He shows me things, I'm into anime from

the year 2000, one that

Sorry, I'm neither good nor

bad, another

time, the night is just beginning, let's look for a

sign, spinning around, taking planes, if I'm like

[Music]

I wake up, tell me if we're going or not. If

you want, I'll stay now, but then I'll

leave, I have a couple of shows, people are

waiting for me

Out there. I'm going where I'm alone, I just want to be

okay with you
