[English]

Not a sound

Sneaking out through your window

Into the night

Where we were meant to be

Skipping town

Searching for nowhere land

Ready or not

This might be our last chance

Maybe tonight

We could make it count

This is what we waited for

No looking back

We started something

I can never let go

I'm keeping you close to me

We don't need no sleep

And I know we will be alright

If only for tonight

If only for tonight

Under the sky

We're catching lightning in a bottle

Windows down

Feel the summer breeze

Maybe tonight

We could make it count

This is what we waited for

Maybe tonight

We could make it out

We've got nothing else to prove

No looking back

We started something

I can never let go

I'm keeping you close to me

We don't need no sleep

And I know we will be alright

No time to waste

Wanna see it all

Let me see it all

Let's find a place

Call it home tonight

Only you and i

No looking back

We started something

I can never let go

I'm keeping you close to me

We don't need no sleep

And I know it will be alright

No looking back

We started something

I can never let go

I'm keeping you close to me

We don't need no sleep

And I know we will be alright

No looking back

I'm keeping you close to me

We don't need no sleep

And I know we will be alright
