Lyrics
[mati & sasaki]
-"ok... you ready?"
-"yea!"
-"alright..."
-"one.."
-"two..."
[mati]
oh, have you looked at the stars tonight?
(tonight)
they pretty look so similar to you!
honey let me see...
the sparkles in ur eyes!
(in ur eyes..)
cause they're bright, like ur arms all over me!
[cambi0]
you rock me left and right
i should've held on longer that time
cause now my insecurities have begun to shine
i don't know if i can make it yours...
tonight!!
i have tomorrow to worry about it
im letting u know, but u think im shouting..
everyone and everything can see how..?
how i feel about you
i don't want you to see what im going through..
you want me to turn off my brain?, that i can-do!
cause everything's so worthless to you.
and i...?
[mati chorus]
and i wonder
where you've been
lost and worried
for ur touch
take me away
to another...
place!!!
[redhorse]
feel ur arms embrace
now i know what colour it is
a star that falls
that walks around us
don't u know ur special
u tell me it's fateful
(i'm pathetic)
but u disagree...
falling further, i'm finding my peace
forever grateful for ur..
cradle!
maybe there's comfort in me
celestial
that light of yours breathes life in me
somehow i think a bit less
somehow i speak a bit more
it's been so long
your distant calls
[mati chorus x2]
and i wonder
where you've been
lost and worried
for ur touch
take me away
to another...
place!!!
[mati outro]
last night was a time
(time, time!)
that i won't forget
(that i won't forget?)
i wanna go back
to the old times...
