A heart-pounding spark of fire,
Locked away by a villain,
Sexy, cute as a cherry,
She will save the day!
Blindfolded and bound,
Moving forward on her feet,
Shooting and reaching out,
She will reach into my hands!
Are you the sun or the new moon?
Do you only become a woman after midnight?
Female: You are the piano and I am the tune,
Together, are we a bombastic song?
Did I unite with you... did I unite with you...
Is she an angel from Los Angeles?
Unseen by eyes... never seen before...
Do I possess a body of clear crystal?
Did I lean towards you...
Like a monsoon shifting in every direction?
Did I stumble and fall...
Did I get lost in your beauty?
Are you the sun or the new moon?
Do you only become a woman after midnight?
Chiku baam baam
Aa rikku baam baam
Ahan mikka haan ooh-aah
I will not let go, I won't let you go,
I will never give you up!
Shall I hold you tight between my lips?
I will not come out, I won't come out,
I will never leave that place!
Shall I live every day in that sweet prison?
When you sink
into an Atlantic of fear,
the oxygen of my love,
I will give it to you.
You crossed seven seas
and seven mountains to come here,
you scooped me up into your arms,
you pinched and killed me with your eyes,
you deadly sword!
Are you the sun or the new moon?
Do you only become a woman after midnight?
Female: You are the piano and I am the tune,
Together, are we a bombastic song?
I tasted sweet, honey of the night,
I saved a spot by my lips for you,
I stitched you right into my heart,
like an inner pocket, oh...
Oh, I was all alone and longing,
I came like a snowy heart,
I came to spread my fragrance,
like a flower market!
As tall as the Eiffel Tower
in my mind,
I look at you clicking my tongue in awe,
in my dreams.
When you shower a rain of kisses
during that golden moment...
my cheeks draw inward,
and shyness peeks out from them,
why did you do this to me?
Are you the sun or the new moon?
Do you only become a woman after midnight?
Female: You are the piano and I am the tune,
Together, are we a bombastic song?
Did I unite with you... did I unite with you...
Female: Am I truly an angel from Los Angeles?
Male: Unseen by eyes... never seen before...
Female: Do I possess a body of clear crystal?
Did I lean towards you...
Female: Like a monsoon shifting in every direction?
Male: Did I stumble and fall...
Female: Did I get lost in your eyes?
Na na na ra nana na
Na na na ra na na na
Na na na ra nana na
Na na na na yea yea yay
