Something 'Bout You
조권 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's something 'bout you baby
난 됐어 필요없어 talk 그저 원해 니 감촉
There's something 'bout you baby
* 잠겨진 너의 단추 위로 피어나는 your tattoo
나를 위험하게 해 자꾸 자꾸만 끌려가게 해
** Because of something 'bout you
You know that something 'bout you
Chocolate처럼 달콤한 cream속 딸기 같은 mouth
There's something 'bout you baby
Show me what you want tonight 내가 줄게 전부 다
Is it something 'bout me baby
* 반복
** 반복
이 순간은 너를 위한 fantasy 이 꿈속에 오직 you and me
Baby 지금이 영원하길 with you with you
You and me 떠나자 멀리 너는
porsche 나는 master key
Baby 지금이 영원하길 with you with you
