Candy Shop – Tip Toe Lyrics：
[캔디샵 “TIP TOE” 가사]
[Intro]
Tip toe, tippy toe, toe, toe
Tippy toe, toe, tippy toe, toe
[Verse 1]
All I know
내가 아는 거라곤 그저 딱 하나뿐
책에선 본 적 없던 감정에
막 up and down
정신을 난 못 차려
No matter how much I have tried
결국 제자린 걸, uh
꼬리를 쫓는 고양이처럼
네 주위를 ’round and ’round
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh) 금세 또 멀어질까 봐 작게만 속삭여
한마디 말도 없이 너는 마치 꼭 (꼭)
한순간 마법처럼 날 또 얼게 만들어, oops
(Ooh, ooh) 비스듬해진 맘은 자꾸 네게만 쏟아져
네게 들켜버릴까 봐
조마조마한 내 맘을 네가 아는지
[Chorus]
You (You)
향한 발걸음은 tip-toe (You)
떨리는 내 기분이 너에게 느껴질까
뛰는 내 맘이 너에게 들릴까 봐 tip-toe
You (You)
향한 발걸음은 tip-toe
난 다가가고 싶어 더, uh, uh
I need more, uh, uh
더는 숨길 수가 없어 anymore
[Verse 2]
Anyone, 그 누구도 not like you
너 아니면 anymore, I don’t need, yeah
운명인듯한 이 이끌림에
벗어날 생각조차 (No)
붉게 물든 내 우주 속에
빛을 내는 별은 너 하나뿐
지구를 쫓는 달처럼
네 주위를 ’round and ’round
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh) 금세 또 멀어질까 봐 작게만 속삭여
한마디 말도 없이 너는 마치 꼭 (꼭)
한순간 마법처럼 날 또 얼게 만들어, oops
(Ooh, ooh)
비스듬해진 맘은 자꾸 네게만 쏟아져
네게 들켜버릴까 봐
조마조마한 내 맘을 네가 아는지
[Chorus]
You (You)
향한 발걸음은 tip-toe (You)
떨리는 내 기분이 너에게 느껴질까
뛰는 내 맘이 너에게 들릴까 봐 tip-toe
You (You)
향한 발걸음은 tip-toe
난 다가가고 싶어 더, uh, uh
I need more, uh, uh
더는 숨길 수가 없어 anymore
(Ooh, ooh) 아무 말도 못 해 숨겨왔던
(Ooh, ooh) 내 맘에 비밀은 오직
이미 난 깊이 fallin’, 빠져버린 내 love is
My love is for you, 모두 네게로 (네게로)
[Chorus]
Tip toe, tippy toe, toe, toe (Tip toe, tip toe)
Tippy toe, toe, tippy toe, toe (uh)
떨리는 내 기분이 너에게 느껴질까 (Oh)
뛰는 내 맘이 너에게 들릴까 봐 tip-toe (ooh-uh-ooh-uh, uh)
Tip toe, tippy toe, toe, toe (uh)
Tippy toe, toe, tippy toe, toe
난 다가가고 싶어 더, uh, uh
I need more, uh, uh
더는 숨길 수가 없어 anymore
