With your LED eyes,
You tied me up.
With your strawberry lips,
You stuck me close.
Without any tuning,
You made me sing.
Losing all control,
You made me dance.
Don't trouble me,
Don't take me lightly.
I didn't tell you to cut,
Don't scratch me.
Give it, give it, give it...
With your LED eyes,
You tied me up.
With your strawberry lips,
You stuck me close.
I was just a little kindergarten girl,
A ten-kilo load of love,
Inside my heart,
You made me carry.
I was a free bird,
Wandering all around,
Turning me into a lovebird,
You made me fly.
You wicked girl, oh wicked girl,
You play with my heart like a ball!
I am struggling, I am struggling,
In my breath, it's only you from now on, girl!
...
Hey, on my velvet cheek,
A kiss etched like a stone inscription,
You stamped without any tollgate.
With WhatsApp and Viber all around,
Even with all that,
Staying out of contact,
You made me scream in frustration!
Because of you, I blushed,
I got caught in your gaze,
I got lost in your breath,
From now on, I will be your partner.
With your LED eyes,
You tied me up.
With your strawberry lips,
You stuck me close.
Don't trouble me,
Don't take me lightly.
I didn't tell you to cut,
Don't scratch me.
Give it, give it, give it...
