[English]

Give me attention

I need it now

Too much distance

To measure it out, out loud

Tracing patterns across a personal map

And making pictures where the lines overlap

Where the lines overlap

No one is as lucky as us

We're not at the end but oh, we already won

No, no, no one is as lucky as us

Is as lucky as us

Call me over

And tell me how

Well, you got so far

Never making a single sound

I'm not used to it

But I can learn

There's nothing to it

I've never been happier

Never been happier

No one is as lucky as us

We're not at the end but oh, we already won

No, no, no one is as lucky as us

Is as lucky as us

Now I've got a feeling if I sang this loud enough

You would sing it back to me

I've got a feeling if I sang this loud enough

You would sing it back to me

I've got a feeling

I got a feeling

That you would sing it back to me

That you would sing it back to me

No one is as lucky as us

We're not at the end but oh, we already won

Oh, no, no one is as lucky as us

Is as lucky as us

Is as lucky as us
