[English]

I swear there's something about you

The way you sneaked in from the blue

我想你應該很清楚

這心跳的感覺 it's true

Love at first sight

I'm caught on you, I

我想你的時候

會不自覺 傻傻的笑

如何不讓旁人察覺

將會是一輩子的難題

一張紙一支筆

這首歌關於你

Cause I know something 'bout you

That separates you from the girls that I once knew

I swear the little things you do

Makes me just wanna spend all my time with you

I swear there's something 'bout you

You say our star sign is the reason that we groove

And yeah, I think that it be true

You made a 180 U-turn from high school

That's why I'm falling for you

That's why I'm falling for you, ooh, ooh-ooh

I swear there's something about you

我愛上你那鎖骨上拼錯字的 tattoo

I swear there's something about you

我愛上你那奇怪的脾氣永遠不服輸

我愛上你的一切

不想跟你道別

你是特別的存在

用這首歌記錄下來

Ooh-woah, wanna spend all my time with you

Cause I know something 'bout you

That separates you from the girls that I once knew

I swear the little things you do

Makes me just wanna spend all my time with you

I swear there's something 'bout you

You say our star sign is the reason that we groove

And yeah, I think that it be true

You made a 180 U-turn from high school

That's why I'm falling for you
