[English]

Think it's time that I should tell you what I've had out on my mind

Every night believing in a movie

Had a feeling i should go and make a move out of my life

Stop running around, pretending that I can go on

I'm out of time

I know, you know, I know

Searching for a live that I believe in

I know, you know, I know

Stargazing

Looking for my life

If you by my side

I know we'll make it some day

Stargazing

Searching through the night

However in my life

I know I'll make it some day

...

Think it's time that I should tell you what I've had out on my mind

Every night believing in a movie

Had a feeling i should go and make a move out of my life

Stop running around, pretending

Stargazing

Looking for my life

If you by my side

I know we'll make it some day

Stargazing

Searching through the night

However in my life

I know I'll make it some day

Ey oh, say ey oh

You can do whatever you wanna do

Ey oh, say ey oh

You can do whatever you wanna do

I deserve to lead the sky of beautiful

So fulfill in love

Now that I can go on

Get out of line

I know, you know, I know

Searching for the one and find the reason

I know, you know, who know

Stargazing

Looking for my life

If you by my side

I know we'll make it some day

Stargazing

Searching through the night

However in my life

I know I'll make it some day

Ey oh, say ey oh

You can do whatever you wanna do

Ey oh, say ey oh

You can do whatever you wanna do
