[English]

Oh, baby

Need that kind of love

A supernova glowing in the dark

Forever I wished upon the stars

Then you came over

Occupied my heart, occupied my heart

Touch my body, skin to skin

Gimme every little bit of your love

Don't you hold back on me, go all in

I've been waiting for this moment too long

One taste, you'll be falling deep

Caught up in your energy

Never let me go, oh, baby

Need that kind of love

A supernova glowing in the dark

Forever I wished upon the star

Then you came over

Occupied my heart, occupied my heart

Dee-la-dee-la

Da-dee-da-dee-da

La-dee-la-dee-la

La-dee-la-dee-la

Dee-la-dee-da

La-dee-la-dee-la

Da-dee-da-dee-da

La-dee-la-dee-la

La-dee-la-dee-da

(Oh, baby)

Tell me how you want me, lose or win

Give me every little bit of your trust

Take me to the stars and make a wish

And I fly up 'til we reach the sun

One kiss, and I'm a dream

I miss the melody

Oh, it feels like heaven when you take it slow

One kiss and I'm falling deep

Caught up in the energy

Never let me go, oh, baby

Need that kind of love

A supernova glowing in the dark

Forever I wished upon the star

Then you came over

Occupied my heart, occupied my heart

Every time I look in your eyes

I see a million stars collide

'Cause only you gonna see inside

Don't pray to the heavens at night, you can't lie

Supernova love gonna that give me that blue heart

Gimme that heart, gimme that heart, yeah

You're the dark, you're the light, you're the love

Super, super, supernova love

Give me your love, give me the star

Baby, come on, you'll find my love

Give your love, give me the star

Baby, come on, you've got my heart, oh baby

Need that kind of love

A supernova glowing in the dark

Forever I wished upon the star

Then you came over

Occupied my heart, occupied my heart

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la supernova

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la supernova
