Lyrics & meaning
Beyond the translation
Overall song meaning
This lighthearted and catchy romantic duet captures the dizzying, exhilarating sensation of falling in love. The lovers describe how love makes the world seem as if it is spinning out of control, causing them to pinch themselves to check whether their happiness is real or a dream. They express how love manifests physically and emotionally, from feeling an electric shock at a wink to hearing hearts beat like heavy iron hammering.
