Description

Skyscrapers make your head spin, but the anticipation is even stronger - that teenage feeling, with your phone in your hands and silly fantasies of “what if right now.”

Seemingly grown up, independent, strong - but inside lives a girl who sees love as a party in her own head: noisy, crowded, and with no chance of silence.

A little funny, a little bitter, but still beautiful - because even the curse of “being a lover girl” sounds like the sweetest punishment.

Lyrics and translation

Original

This skyscraper’s causing vertigo
The countdown begins in Tokyo
Twenty seven days alone
Means 20 million ways to cope without you
I’m in a reckless fever
Love-struck girl, I’d tease her
Thought I’d never be her
Quite the job you’ve done on me, sir
You’ve been hosting parties
In my mind, I’m working overtime
To have you in my world
Oh, what a curse it is to be a lover girl
Forced to get creative, wrote my feelings down
The independent lady in me’s nowhere to be found
I can’t wait another day to see you how embarrassing
To be this way
I’m in a reckless fever
Love-struck girl, I’d tease her
Thought I’d never be her
Quite the job you’ve done on me, sir
You’ve been hosting parties
In my mind, I’m working overtime
To have you in my world
Oh, what a curse it is to be in love
I wait by the phone like a high school movie
Dream at the shows you’ll come running to me
Think I see you in the wings, god
I'm hallucinating what a
Reckless fever
Love-struck girl, I’d tease her
Thought I’d never be her
Quite the job you’ve done on me, sir
You’ve been hosting parties
In my mind, I’m working overtime
You’ve become my whole world
Oh, what a curse it is to be a lover girl
