Lyrics
When your smile caught my eye
Encountering a captivating smile that grabbed the observer's attention.
I felt like I was in a dream
Feeling as if the experience was unreal, resembling a dream.
but I just can't seem
Expressing difficulty in fully grasping or understanding the situation.
to wake up I wanna keep sleeping to wake up I want to keep sleeping
Desiring to continue sleeping, suggesting a reluctance to face reality, possibly due to the dream-like experience.
Good night my magnolia I hope you sleep well

Time went on and we counted the seconds I spent with you
