[English]

I'm still searching for someone to lean on, for a warm embrace

Who prays for me, worries for me, gets mad at me, and fusses over me

Happiness starts to show signs, fate slowly pulls us closer together

Then loneliness is swallowed up, boredom turns into conversations, things change

Your dimples and long eyelashes are your most beautiful marks

Every night I can't sleep, thinking of your smile

You don't realize how much you mean to me

(You don't know, how important you are)

With you, my life feels complete

Your charming dimples and long eyelashes are hopelessly irresistible

I slow down my pace, feeling like I’m tipsy

Finally, I find the beautiful connection of two souls

A lifetime of warmth and good feelings

I'll love you forever, until old age

Happiness starts to show signs, fate slowly pulls us closer together

Then loneliness is swallowed up, boredom turns into conversations, things change

Your dimples and long eyelashes are your most beautiful marks

Every night I can't sleep, thinking of your smile

You don't realize how much you mean to me

(You don't know, how important you are)

With you, my life feels complete

Your charming dimples and long eyelashes are hopelessly irresistible

I slow down my pace, feeling like I’m tipsy

Finally, I find the beautiful connection of two souls

A lifetime of warmth and good feelings

I'll love you forever, until old age

Huh...

Your charming dimples and long eyelashes are hopelessly irresistible

I slow down my pace, feeling like I’m tipsy

Finally, I find the beautiful connection of two souls

A lifetime of warmth and good feelings

I'll love you forever, until old age

...

[Chinese]

我還在尋找 一個依靠 和一個擁抱

誰替我祈禱 替我煩惱 為我生氣為我鬧

幸福開始有預兆 緣份讓我們慢慢緊靠

然後孤單被吞沒了 無聊變得有話聊 有變化了

小酒窩長睫毛是你最美的記號

我每天睡不著想念你的微笑

你不知道你對我多麼重要

(你不知道 多麼重要)

有了你生命完整的剛好

小酒窩長睫毛迷人的無可救藥

我放慢了步調感覺像是喝醉了

終於找到心有靈犀的美好

一輩子暖暖的好

我永遠愛你到老

幸福開始有預兆 緣份讓我們慢慢緊靠

然後孤單被吞沒了 無聊變得有話聊 有變化了

小酒窩長睫毛是你最美的記號

我每天睡不著想念你的微笑

你不知道你對我多麼重要

(你不知道 多麼重要)

有了你生命完整的剛好

小酒窩長睫毛迷人的無可救藥

我放慢了步調感覺像是喝醉了

終於找到心有靈犀的美好

一輩子暖暖的好

我永遠愛你到老

HU...

小酒窩長睫毛迷人的無可救藥

我放慢了步調感覺像是喝醉了

終於找到心有靈犀的美好

一輩子暖暖的好

我永遠愛你到老
