To kiss without making a sound,
I learned the art.
I looked all around me,
and agreed to share a kiss.
In the middle of endless warnings,
at the very peak, there is no time to catch my breath.
Even then, to kiss without making a sound,
I learned how.
Just within arm's reach,
on this rocky journey,
without you, my love,
my love, what will become of me?
Like an island within an island,
like a flower in the middle of war,
if I bloom, what will become of me?
(Humming...)
Male: Come inside my heart,
bring your lips to me here.
Come inside my heart,
bring your lips to me here.
Come inside my heart... ha...
Bring your lips to me here... aaa...
To kiss without making a sound,
I learned the art.
I looked all around me,
and agreed to share a kiss.
In the middle of endless warnings,
at the very peak, there is no time to catch my breath.
Even then, to kiss without making a sound,
I learned how.
Just within arm's reach,
on this rocky journey,
without you, my love,
my love, what will become of me?
Like an island within an island,
like a flower in the middle of war,
if I bloom, what will become of me?
