[English]

I can’t express it in words

Girl, You gotta know you got that vibe

Your smile is Fine Art

You wake up my soul

You got me feelin’ so right yeah

It’s a vibe

Yeah eh

This gon’ be the one and only theme song

You’ve got all of my attention

You’re my one and only mission

Nothing is impossible Baby lights camera action

I’m the music, you’re my Topline

You’re the city, I’m the Skyline

I’m the movie, you’re the Highlight

Falling on a dark sky like Twilight

Just gets better

Got me binge-watching you with that attraction

You don’t know I want your love (know I want your love)

Before this night ends Baby

You know we got that vibe baby (till the sun rises)

Look at me, look at me, I got the vibe

Look at me, look at me, I got the vibe

You know we got that vibe baby (till the sun sets)

Look at you, look at you, you got the vibe

I can feel it, It’s a vibe

This gon’ be the one and only Anthem

Can feel my sixth sense, it’s a stimulation

Holding hands causing an electrocution

Before you my world was in disconnection

I’m the stage, you’re the Spotlight

You’re the Han River, I’m the Nam San

It can’t be more perfect than this

Falling on a dark sky like Twilight

I could feel it

I’m trapped inside your space, You’re my Matrix

You don’t know I want your love (know I want your love)

Before this night ends Baby

You know we got that vibe baby (till the sun rises)

Look at me, look at me, I got the vibe

Look at me, look at me, I got the vibe

You know we got that vibe baby (till the sun sets)

Look at you, look at you, you got the vibe

I can feel it, It’s a vibe

Look at the stars

Moon’s shining so bright

All through the night

It’s lighting us up

And the way you look at me

I want to keep feelin’ the vibrations

(You gotta know you got that vibe)

You know we got that vibe baby (till the sun rises)

Look at me, look at me, I got the vibe

You know we got that vibe baby (till the sun sets)

Look at you, look at you, you got the vibe

I can feel it, It’s a vibe
