Fiery beauty,
Why are you charming me like this, girl?
When you smile,
I completely swoon and fall for you.
Oh come on... is it real...
I'm slowly floating,
I don't know why.
When you come close,
I just crumble into pieces, girl.
Inside the fortress I built,
you are my queen.
Those eyes glancing sharply,
are they a pair of fish?
What did you do to me?
I'm turning into you.
When she gave that pretty glare,
oh man, she is pure fire!
Oh my goodness, oh dear,
you completely change me and go.
What else can I say?
With every passing day,
I will gently circle around you.
Oh my goodness, oh dear,
she is devouring me
in the dimple of her cheek.
I swear, my sweet princess,
you hold my hand in my dreams.
Hey little devil,
you tore through my heart and left.
I melted down
and spilled over, girl.
Like a sudden May rain,
you drenched me completely.
This fever of love
is killing me, girl, why?
Like a bee in my heart,
you sting and leave, my flower.
Is it imagination, a dream, or reality?
You are right inside my eyes.
Oh my goodness, oh dear,
why did you enter inside
and torment my soul?
Hey beautiful girl,
you warm yourself over my fire.
Oh my goodness, oh dear,
crushing my heart,
why do you make me swoon?
Lighting a fire,
you spread sweet fragrance in my heart.
Mirror in my dreams,
she was my queen,
a castle on the mountaintop,
rivers and streams.
Putting sunlight
from the sky
in my pocket,
give it to you
later all in the
form of a locket.
What you
wanna do, baby,
it's on you.
What you
wanna do, baby,
it's on you, baby.
What you
wanna do, baby,
it's on you.
What you
wanna do, baby,
it's on you, baby.
What you
wanna do, baby,
it's on you.
What you
wanna do, baby,
it's on you, baby.
Oh my goodness, oh dear,
why did you enter inside
and torment my soul?
Hey beautiful girl,
you warm yourself over my fire.
Oh my goodness, oh dear,
crushing my heart,
why do you make me swoon?
Lighting a fire,
you spread sweet fragrance in my heart.
