Friend Zone [English translation]

Verse 1

We have the same music in our playlists

Same dreams in the pocket of our jeans

The same clear sky over our heads

Same dumb jokes which we laugh at

Same eyes full of life

And the same plans for the future, in which we two

Are together, but somehow we don't hold hands

Pre-refrain

Tone, tone, semitone

I'm just a dreamer

Who admires her eyes

While she admires another man's eyes

Tone, tone, semitone

I look at her--everything else fades into the background

Tone, tone, semitone

Get me out of the friend zone!

Refrain

Ah, please, sing an encore

I still haven't succeeded in inviting her to the dance

While I still have courage, while I'm still drunk and sing "The Motans,"

Ah, please sing more,

Now is the right time,

With all my courage mustered, for you to approach me and for me to tell her all that I feel

Verse 2

I have won first place in the loser contest

I've hidden the truth because I don't want to suffer

Uncensored emotions want to get out

But I know that my truth for her is a mistake

My gaze becomes different from hers

All the more . . . with each time

In her world, my name is "nobody"

And in mine, her name is "never."
