IU ‘Love wins all’ Lyrics

Love wins all

Dearest, Darling, My universe
Will you take me away?
To a place beyond my humble imagination
Far away from Earth to Mars
Will you go with me?
No matter where it is, searching for the opposite of long loneliness
How come we
Are together due to some mistake
Run away from the world, Run on
Go with me to the end, My lover
Will it be a bad ending, we two lost um
Hold me tight until I break
Kiss me more dearly, Lover
Love is all Love is all
Love Love Love Love
In the end, still,
Why are we
Each other
Escape from the world, Run on
Go with me to the end, My lover
Will it be a bad ending, we two lost um
Gently capturing you in my eyes
Smile at me once more comfortably
Floating up like swimming
Like that night that day,
Will you fearlessly set with me?
Shatter me more, Ruiner
I want to become sad with you, My lover
Run away from inevitability, Run on
Go with me to the end, My lover
Intentionally, we two lost side by side
Hold me tight until I break
Kiss me more dearly, Lover
Our Love wins all Love wins all
Love Love Love Love
