[English]

On an island, stuck together

You're the vinyl I could play forever

Down a mountain, through the desert

Chase the water and change the weather

...

You remind me of a soundtrack

From a movie, a throwback

Don't keep me waiting, don't make me wonder

Don't alert me about the spoiler

You got this sweetness

My body needs this

You are my Venus

I'm River Phoenix

Be my rock and never move

I won't dance unless you do

You are my Venus

I'm River Phoenix

...

Don't you know me? The last crusader

I need a lover. No, not a hater

Let's save the forest, 800 acres

In Costa Rica, I wanna take ya

You got this sweetness

My body needs this

You are my Venus

I'm River Phoenix

Be my rock and never move

I won't dance unless you do

You are my Venus

I'm River Phoenix

...

Rising like the sun 'til sunset

A shady bar on the boulevard

Rising like the sun 'til sunset

A hazy star, you went too far

...

Rising, rising like the sun

You are my Venus

I'm River Phoenix

Rising, rising like the sun

You are my Venus

I'm River Phoenix

Be my rock and never move

I won't dance unless you do

Rising, rising like the sun

You are my Venus

I'm River Phoenix

...
