Happy End [English translation]
Happy End [English translation]
That's no happy end
(That's no happy end)
I miss the feeling from when we were together
Then, when we were Bonnie and Clyde1
Two hundred kilometers per hour as we drove past
Now I'm not even a second car2 for you
In our favorite films
Not everything was perfect
I loved that we were real
But now, there's no happy end
All these movies make is worse
Because they just remind me of you
That's no happy end
Hey, I can't sleep anymore, because I'm still thinking of you
That's no happy end
You're stuck in my head, I can't suppress it anymore
I want to skip your story
Without missing you
I want to tell me friends that you don't matter to me
But you really do
I'm Jack3, I'm Forrest4, I'm Harvey Specter5
I'm Batman, I'm Rabbit3 and Hannibal Lecter6, too
I'm Christian Grey7, I'm Mr. Big8
Walter White9 and Lupin10 when you miss me
Because you're Kevin home alone11
No messages from Sam12 again, because he's sleeping at Aladdin's13
I don't think this romance film will take any happy turns
A romance without kisses at the end
All these movies make is worse
Because they just remind me of you
That's no happy end
Hey, I can't sleep anymore, because I'm still thinking of you
That's no happy end
You're stuck in my head, I can't suppress it anymore
I want to skip your story
Without missing you
I want to tell me friends that you don't matter to me
But you really do
(I don't think this romance film will take any happy turns
A romance without kisses at the end)
But you really do
(I don't think this romance film will take any happy turns
A romance without kisses at the end)
But you really do
