[English]

Let the moonlight sway

The vibe becomes subtle

When I slow down my pace

Orange streetlights shimmer

Leading to the galaxy tunnel

The spaceship breaks down halfway

I hop onto a meteor’s waist

Step into the bustling castle

Midnight, 00:00:01

The signal for the party to start

Let the moonlight sway

The vibe becomes subtle

When I slow down my pace

Will you come closer to me?

Sway under the starlight

The orbit swaying left and right

Collide into your embrace

Romance kicks in instantly

The stars blink

Listen to your heart

Softly draw near

The stars blink

Ring Ring, the phone rings

I still have another dance

Orange streetlights shimmer

Leading to the galaxy tunnel

The spaceship breaks down halfway

I hop onto a meteor’s waist

Step into the bustling castle

Midnight, 00:00:01

The signal for the party to start

Let the moonlight sway

The vibe becomes subtle

When I slow down my pace

Will you come closer to me?

Sway under the starlight

The orbit swaying left and right

Collide into your embrace

Romance kicks in instantly

The stars blink

Listen to your heart

Softly draw near

The stars blink

Ring Ring, the phone rings

I still have another dance

Boys and girls

Welcome to the starlight party

No matter who you are

No matter where you are

As long as you want to have an unforgettable night

Just come to me

Let the moonlight sway

The vibe becomes subtle

When I slow down my pace

Will you come closer to me?

Sway under the starlight

The orbit swaying left and right

Collide into your embrace

Romance kicks in instantly

Shake, shake!

The vibe becomes subtle

When I slow down my pace

Will you come closer to me?

Sway under the starlight

The orbit swaying left and right

Collide with your embrace

Romance kicks in instantly

The stars blink

Listen to your heart

Softly draw near

The stars blink

Ring Ring, the phone rings

I still have another dance

[Chinese]

让月光摇啊摇啊

气氛开始变微妙

当我放慢了步调

橘色路灯闪耀

通往银河隧道

飞船半路抛锚

就坐上流星的腰

踏进喧闹城堡

午夜零点零一秒

派对开始的讯号

让月光摇啊摇啊

气氛开始变微妙

当我放慢了步调

你会不会向我靠

在星光摇啊摇啊

左右摇摆的轨道

撞上了你的怀抱

浪漫就即刻生效

星星眨眼睛

听听你的心

轻轻在贴近

星星眨眼睛

Ring Ring在响铃

我还有下一场舞会

橘色路灯闪耀

通往银河隧道

飞船半路抛锚

就坐上流星的腰

踏进喧闹城堡

午夜零点零一秒

派对开始的讯号

让月光摇啊摇啊

气氛开始变微妙

当我放慢了步调

你会不会向我靠

在星光摇啊摇啊

左右摇摆的轨道

撞上了你的怀抱

浪漫就即刻生效

星星眨眼睛

听听你的心

轻轻在贴近

星星眨眼睛

Ring Ring在响铃

我还有下一场舞会
