Looking at you, my heart grows hungry,
In this youthful age of ours,
Hey my beauty, you are truly one of a kind!
The anklet worn around my foot,
It is brand new, so come brush close against me just like that!
Looking at you, my heart grows hungry,
In this youthful age of ours,
Hey my beauty, you are truly one of a kind!
When I spread the bed, I only think of you,
What other thought could I ever have?
If you hold me by my waist, I tremble with desire,
What could be sweeter than this?
Hey little girl, deep inside my heart,
All kinds of restless feelings are rising!
Oh, do not cross the limit, do not tempt my heart,
My yearning heart will not be able to bear it!
Looking at you, my heart grows hungry,
In this youthful age of ours,
Hey my beauty, you are truly one of a kind!
Hey, the anklet worn around my foot,
It is brand new, so come brush close against me just like that!
Looking at you, my heart grows hungry,
In this youthful age of ours,
Hey my beauty, you are truly one of a kind!
When sweet memories come crowding in,
The heart forgets all hesitation!
When a flood rushes past the dam,
No fence can hold it back!
My heart that was once so restrained,
Is now losing all control!
This cannot be stopped, our eyes will not sleep,
It will not care about time or place anymore!
Looking at you, my heart grows hungry,
In this youthful age of ours,
The way you look at me is so wonderfully new!
Looking at you, my heart grows hungry,
In this youthful age of ours,
Hey my beauty, you are truly one of a kind!
The anklet worn around my foot,
It is brand new, so come brush close against me just like that!
Looking at you, my heart grows hungry,
In this youthful age of ours,
Hey my beauty, you are truly one of a kind!
