Come...
Come, oh won't you come?
Where you are going is not far away
Won't you come?
Declare it, oh declare it
My blood-red lips are your ocean of kisses
Declare it so!
Come, come, oh won't you come?
Where you are going is not far away
Won't you come?
Declare it, declare it, oh declare it
My blood-red lips are your ocean of kisses
Declare it so!
You are like cotton, my whole heart is on fire
Why ask any more questions? Come, catch fire!
The sky in the dead of night, a man in passion
Doubts are useless, come wrap around me!
The smile is yours, but the lips are mine
The life is yours, but the body is mine
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Come, oh won't you come?
Where you are going is not far away
Won't you come?
Surrender yourself, give yourself away
There is no time left for us to wait
Give yourself away... (Female: Ah...)
Come, come, oh won't you come?
Where you are going is not far away
Won't you come?
Surrender, surrender, give yourself away
There is no time left for us to wait
Give yourself away... (Female: Ah...)
You seem like stone, but inside there is fire
Why is this thirst still here? Shall I pour it in? (Female: Ah...)
I am starved of love, a deer upon the bed
Sweet-talk is useless, shall I devour you whole?
The clothes are yours, but the waist is mine
The heart is yours, but the chest is mine
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Yours and mine
Shall I pour honey on your forehead
and drink it all the way to your feet?
Shall I light a fire upon your back
and melt in it like wax?
Striking the center of your desire,
shall I let parrots take flight from there?
Hey, in the place you cannot touch yourself,
shall I touch you with my tongue?
You do not belong to me,
my gentle deer, my deer,
and yet towards you,
there is only pure passion!
My love, your face
shows my love,
but your fingernails
reveal my lover
The bangles are yours, but the hands are mine
Oh beautiful one...
The curves are yours, but the blessings are mine
Oh flower...
The branches are mine, the fruits are yours
The pain is mine...
The blame is yours...
My sweet parrot, my life!
Come, come, oh won't you come?
Where you are going is not far away
Won't you come?
Shower down, shower down, drizzle upon me
Your rain of passion is my peak of pleasure
Drizzle upon me!
You are like cotton, my whole heart is on fire
No need to plead, shall I catch fire?
(Male): I am starved of love, a deer upon the bed
Sweet-talk is useless, shall I devour you whole?
The smile is yours, but the lips are mine
(Male): The heart is yours, but the chest is mine
Come...
