YOU ARE THE ONLY LYRICS
Heart barrel
Wandering iris promises
Replacing whispers
Whispers spur desire
Swish swish dream
Cue world legit
You are the only one
Who apparently understands me
I'm sorry for all this time
Who forgot you a little
Everything is polite
What you deposited in my soul
Don't sob just yet
Now say my regrets
Woven your love
My eyes were torn apart
You are the only one
Who apparently understands me
I'm sorry for all this time
Who forgot you a little
Heart barrel
Get yourself back into the flow
Across my body
Cool your lap
Don't want to be wrapped up
Wrapped in regret
The ruins of my promise
I'll restore it for you
Every pulse is calling
You are the only one
You are the only one
You are the only one
You are the only one
I'm sorry for all this time
You are the only one
Who apparently understands me
I'm sorry for all this time
Who forgot you a little
The ruins of my promise
I'll restore it for you
Every pulse is calling
You are the only one
You are the only one
Who apparently understands me
I'm sorry for all this time
Who forgot you a little
The ruins of my promise
I'll restore it for you
Every pulse is calling
You are the only one

EARLY MARRIAGE LYRICS
In every love
It doesn't always taste sweet
In this story explain what
Which happens a lot
Your age is early
Adrift of love, it's not time yet
Every exhaled breath
Only love
Early-age marriage
It's not love that's forbidden
It's just that the time isn't right
Feel it all
Early-age marriage
It's best not to let that happen
But white love proves it
Two people cannot be separated
Your age is early
Adrift of love, it's not time yet
Every exhaled breath
Only love
Early-age marriage
It's not love that's forbidden
It's just that the time isn't right
Feel it all
Early-age marriage
It's best not to let that happen
But white love proves it
Two people cannot be separated
Early-age marriage
It's not love that's forbidden
It's just that the time isn't right
Feel it all
Early-age marriage
It's best not to let that happen
But white love proves it
Two people cannot be separated

IN THE NAME OF LOVE LYRICS
I'm a woman
Who has love in his heart
There's you and him
In my life
Why late
Your love has been had
I'm with him
Not that much love
Why can others
Duplicate easily
But we are shackled
In a bond without love
In the name of love
This heart cannot be divided
See you when I die
This love is only for you
In the name of love
I let my path languish
As long as you end up with me
I swear in the name of love
Why can others
Duplicate easily
But we are shackled
In a bond without love
In the name of love
This heart cannot be divided
See you when I die
This love is only for you
In the name of love
I let my path languish
As long as you end up with me
I swear in the name of love
In the name of love

NIGHT BUTTERFLY LYRICS
There are those who hate him
Someone needs him
There are those who kneel to love him
There were also those who cruelly tortured him
This is the life of the Night Butterfly woman
Work, bet your whole body and soul
Smiling lips, soft words seducing, pampering
To everyone who comes
What sin did he commit?
Holy are those who come
Sometimes he smiles through tears
Sometimes he cries inside his smile
Wo-oh, what happens, happens
What he knows is that God is merciful to his people
Wo-oh, what happens, happens
All he knows is to survive
Wo-oh-ho, what happens, happens
What he knows is that God is merciful to his people
Wo-ho, what happens, happens
All he knows is to survive
What he knows is that God is merciful to his people
Wo-ho, what happens, happens
All he knows is to survive
