Lyrics & Translation

[English]
When you love somebody
When you love somebody
I won't wait here forever
You know there's no turning back
We need to be together urgently
a centimeter away from you
I can't take it anymore
When you love somebody, when you love somebody
your mind gets clouded
When you love somebody, when you love somebody
you lose your breath
Girl, I want your body right beside my body
very close, you and I
When you love somebody, when you love somebody
you only want their warmth
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
I know well when, how, and where
I want to enter your heart
Your voice will trace my name
Tonight the sun will rise within you
When you love somebody, when you love somebody
your mind gets clouded
When you love somebody, when you love somebody
you lose your breath
Girl, I want your body right beside my body
very close, you and I
When you love somebody, when you love somebody
you only want their warmth
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
Oh, oh, oh...
When you love somebody
Move, slowly give me your warmth
Save me and mix with me, love
Move, slowly give me your warmth
Save me and mix with me, love
Move, slowly give me your warmth
Save me and mix with me, love
