Lyrics:


You're indescribable.
该怎么去形容你最贴切

Compared to you, what can be called special.
拿什么跟你作比较才算特别

Crazy for you, I go.
对你的感觉 强烈

Little about you, I know.
却又不太了解

My guts, I follow.
只凭直觉

You're like the comfort I feel when tucked in,
你像窝在被子里的舒服

But also the wind randomly blowing,
却又像风捉摸不住

Like the fragrance of perfume my wrists are giving,
像手腕上散发的香水味

Like the red high heels I can't help holding.
像爱不释手的，红色高跟鞋

You're indescribable.
该怎么去形容你最贴切

Compared to you, what can be called special.
拿什么跟你作比较才算特别

Crazy for you, I go.
对你的感觉 强烈

Little about you, I know.
却又不太了解

My guts, I follow.
只凭直觉

You're like the comfort I feel when tucked in,
你像窝在被子里的舒服

But also the wind randomly blowing,
却又像风捉摸不住

Like the fragrance of perfume my wrists are giving,
像手腕上散发的香水味

Like the red high heels I can't help holding.
像爱不释手的，红色高跟鞋

You're like the comfort I feel when tucked in,
你像窝在被子里的舒服

But also the wind randomly blowing,
却又像风捉摸不住

Like the fragrance of perfume my wrists are giving,
像手腕上散发的香水味

Like the red high heels I can't help holding.
像爱不释手的，红色高跟鞋

My loving you is like running a red light
我爱你有种左灯右行的冲突

Crazy, with no way out in sight
疯狂却怕没有退路

Would you please pull me out of this tough fight？
你能否让我停止这种追逐

The last pair of red high heels I’ll hold on to tight
就这么双最后唯一的 红色高跟鞋
