You and me

끝나지 않을 history

Oh, 나의 우주가 돼 준

우리의 이야기

목적지 없이 흘러가는 저 소행성처럼

나도 그저 떠내려가고 있었어

어둠 속에 찾은 나의 모든 dream

새롭게 시작될 story

When I’m with you

There is no one else

I get heaven to myself

When I’m with you

There is no one else

I feel this way I’ve never felt

You and me

깨지지 않는 별처럼

너의 꿈이 되어

우주를 여행하는

어두운 길을 비춰주는 저 은하수처럼

너는 나를 향해 빛나고 있었어

어둠 속에 찾은 단 하나의 빛

너에게 향하는 나의 길

When I’m with you

There is no one else

I get heaven to myself

When I’m with you

There is no one else

I feel this way I never felt

I feel this way I never felt

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

When I’m with you

There is no one else

I get heaven to myself

When I’m with you

There is no one else

A life, a sparkle in your eyes

Heaven comin’ through

And I love you

And I love you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
