Fluttering inside my eyes,
butterflies are flying around.
Rushing in swiftly, love arrives,
grabbing my hands and pulling me along.
Pattering softly, a drizzle comes,
pouring quickly into my heart,
and soaring swiftly into the sky.
Fluttering inside my eyes,
butterflies are flying around.
Rushing in swiftly, love arrives,
grabbing my hands and pulling me along.
Pattering softly, a drizzle comes,
pouring quickly into my heart,
and soaring swiftly into the sky.
Love came inside this heart,
eating away my sleep all night long,
all of this happened because of you.
Your gaze conquered me,
consuming my soul from deep within,
this sweet madness brings you to me.
You are truly my life,
I have become your own,
every day has become a joy,
every day has become a joy,
from now on, every day is pure bliss.
Fluttering inside my eyes,
butterflies are flying around.
Rushing in swiftly, love arrives,
grabbing my hands and pulling me along.
Two eyes staged a whole drama,
their twin lights spoke and passed by.
Knowing this is joy,
my heart searches for it every day.
A tiny drizzle touched me,
and burned this girl like a great fire.
Somehow you came into this,
and it feels so soothing.
You are a dream dancing in me,
come stroll through my heart.
From now on, my heart is yours,
my heart is yours,
from now on, my heart is yours.
Fluttering inside my eyes,
butterflies are flying around.
Rushing in swiftly, love arrives,
grabbing my hands and pulling me along.
Pattering softly, a drizzle comes,
pouring quickly into my heart,
and soaring swiftly into the sky.
Fluttering inside my eyes,
butterflies are flying around.
Rushing in swiftly, love arrives,
grabbing my hands and pulling me along.
Pattering softly, a drizzle comes,
pouring quickly into my heart,
and soaring swiftly into the sky.
