Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I couldn't sleep now the lights guide me again

Shadows fade, my heartbeat slows

Through the night, I'll let it go

Even through the storm, we'll keep walking

AKAY forever, the fire still burns in my heart

Though I find myself lost in mist and clouds

Even through the storm, we'll walk towards the dawn

Hold my hand don't let it fall

Through the silence, hear my call

Even when the stars won't shine

I will find a way, you'll be mine

And faith still shines in the dark night

No need for light, our steps won't falter

AKAY still burns, still nurtured in my heart

We run through the night

Never let you go

Lost in the fire but still feel the glow

I still believe, even after many falls

Crossing through the night, it won't be far

Hearts collide under the neon sky

Dreams alive, we're flying high

No need for light, our steps won't falter

AKAY still burns, still nurtured in my heart

AKAY crosses through the long dark night

And faith still shines in the dark night

No need for light, our steps won't falter

AKAY still burns, still nurtured in my heart

We run through the night, never let you go

Lost in the fire, but still feel the glow

I still believe, even after many falls

Crossing through the night, it won't be far

Hearts collide under the neon sky

Dreams alive, we're flying high

No need for light, our steps won't falter

AKAY still burns, still nurtured in my heart

[Vietnamese]

I couldn't sleep now the lights guide me again

Shadows fade, my heartbeat slows

Through the night, I'll let it go

Dẫu bão giông ta vẫn bước

AKAY forever trong tim vẫn cháy lửa

Dù rằng sương mây tôi thấy chìm mình

Dẫu bão là vẫn bước tới bình minh

Hold my hand don't let it fall

Through the silence, hear my call

Even when the stars won't shine

I will find a way, you'll be mine

Và niềm tin vẫn sáng giữa màn đêm tối

Chẳng cần ánh sáng bước chân không lùi

AKAY vẫn cháy trong tim vẫn nuôi

We run through the night

Never let you go

Lost in the fire but still feel the glow

Anh vẫn tin dẫu bao lần vấp ngã

Bước qua màn đêm, sẽ không xa

Hearts collide under the neon sky

Dreams alive, we're flying high

Chẳng cần ánh sáng bước chân không lùi

AKAY vẫn cháy trong tim vẫn nuôi

AKAY bước qua bóng đêm dài

Và niềm tin vẫn sáng giữa màn đêm tối

Chẳng cần ánh sáng bước chân không lùi

AKAY vẫn cháy trong tim vẫn nuôi

We run through the night, never let you go

Lost in the fire, but still feel the glow

Anh vẫn tin dẫu bao lần vấp ngã

Bước qua màn đêm, sẽ không xa

Hearts collide under the neon sky

Dreams alive, we're flying high

Chẳng cần ánh sáng bước chân không lùi

AKAY vẫn cháy trong tim vẫn nuôi
