Bae Bae Bae BAAM BAAM

Bae Bae Bae BAAM BAAM

I keep getting dizzy, unexpected you

Suddenly coming in, BAAM (BAAM)

Shaking me with careless words you threw

Pick Pick Pick, I fall down, BAAM (BAAM)

As if I have no soul (I heard)

With a cold tone (I let go)

In your gaze (No Doubt)

I’m not there (No Doubt)

Why, why, why, why

As if drawing a line (I did this)

Hitting the wall (You did that)

How could you be like that, oh

How could you be like that, why

I see your eyes, your eyes, your eyes, ooh

I’m falling, I’m falling, ooh

Even when I close my eyes, I keep seeing

What should I do, Baby, tell me why~

My heart races when I see you, heart, heart, heart

I think of you every night, night, night

I keep asking, oh, why am I like this, baby

My feelings are harder to hide as time goes on, heart, heart, heart

I keep doing this when I see you

Oh, why am I like this, baby, baby, baby

Bae Bae Bae BAAM BAAM

Bae Bae Bae BAAM BAAM

When you look at me, I look at you too

Doo doo doo, sending signals

Eh-eh, my pupils shake

Hmm-hmm, my heartbeat quickens

Ya-ah, when you look at me, BAAM

As if you’re not interested (I tightened)

Your short tone (I loosened)

Suddenly (No Doubt)

A crisis (No Doubt)

Coldly (Why, why, why, why)

As if hitting the wall (I pushed)

Drawing a line (I pulled)

What should I do with you, oh

What should I do with you, why

I see your eyes, your eyes, your eyes, ooh

I’m falling, I’m falling, you, ooh

I keep seeing you even in my dreams

What should I do, Baby, tell me why

My heart races when I see you, heart, heart, heart

I think of you every night, night, night

I keep asking, oh, why am I like this, baby

My feelings are harder to hide as time goes on, heart, heart, heart

I keep doing this when I see you

Oh, why am I like this, baby, baby, baby

In an instant, BAAM

You make me let go, baby

You u u u u u

Suddenly, BAAM

Shaking me up in a daze

You u u u u u

My heart races when I see you, heart, heart, heart

I think of you every night, night, night

I keep asking, oh, why am I like this, baby

My feelings are harder to hide as time goes on, heart, heart, heart

I keep doing this when I see you

Oh, why am I like this, baby, baby, baby

자꾸 어지러워 생각지도 못한 네가

훅 훅 훅 들어와 BAAM (BAAM)

나를 흔들어 무심하게 던진 말에

Pick Pick Pick 쓰러져 BAAM (BAAM)

영혼 없는 듯 (들었다)

차가운 말투 (놨다)

네가 보는 (No Doubt)

시선에 (No Doubt)

나는 없고 (굳이 왜 굳이 왜 굳이 왜 굳이 왜)

선을 긋는 듯 (이랬다)

벽을 치던 (저랬다)

그런 네가 어떻게 oh

네가 어떻게 why

네 눈을 본다 눈을 본다 눈을 본다 우우우

빠져든다 빠져든다 난 우 우우우

눈을 감아도 자꾸만 보여

어떻게 해 Baby Tell Me Why~

널 보면 뛰는 마음 마음 마음

생각나 매일 밤 밤 밤

Hmm-hmm 심박이 빨라져

Ya-ah 네가 날 보니까 BAAM

관심 없는 듯 (조였다)

짧은 네 말투 (풀었다)

갑자기분 (No Doubt)

위기는 No Doubt)

싸늘하게 (굳이 왜 굳이 왜 굳이 왜 굳이 왜)

벽을 치는 듯 (밀었다)

선을 긋던 (당겨)

그런 너를 어떡해 oh
