## Description

* English
* Korean

“열기 (9)” is a track that proves a point that even without aggressive tempo, the temperature of the music can become heated up by the fervor of the girls.

자극적인 템포 없이도 소녀들의 열기로 얼마나 음악의 온도를 높일 수 있는지 증명하는 ‘열기’.

Ayy 뜨거워진 열기
Eyy 멈춰줄래 Windy
비최 You know you know

Hey 원래 그런 거야
High 오를수록 숨차
비이 You know you know (Mmm)

하나도 겁낼 필요 없는데
나랑 높이 위로 붕붕 (꺄)
하늘 높이 위로 붕붕(꺄)
우리에겐 시간이 좀 모자라
나랑 높이 위로 붕붕
하늘 높이 위로 붕붕 (꺄)

오늘 딱 하루 너를 초대할게
내일 내 맘이 전부 변하기 전에

무겁게 안고 있는 걱정들은 여기 두고 가
이제 발이 떠 Tonight

더 높이 붕붕 뜰래 위로 (꺄)
더 높이 붕붕 뜰래 위로 (꺄)

Hey 더 멀리 가도 좋아

콜록콜록 You know you know
Try 손을 잡는 구름
Time 어느샌가 훌쩍
You know you know
비솔 You know you know

오늘 딱 하루 너를 초대할게
내일 내 맘이 전부 변하기 전에
무겁게 안고 있는 걱정들은 여기 두고 가 (Whoa~)
이제 발이 떠 Tonight

(Hey!)
더 높이 붕붕 뜰래 위로 (꺄)
츄원 더 높이 붕붕 뜰래 위로 (꺄)

(Ah, ah) 눈으로 보아도 너는 믿을 수가 없지 (Ah, ah)
지금 기분을 다 다 다 알아 (Ah, ah)
끝난 게 아니야
알 수 없는 우리 비행 (Ah, ah)
널 데려가 더 위로

오늘 난 너를 위해 준비했어
아름다운 별 반짝 빛나고 있어 (Oh whoa~)
(더 높이 붕붕 뜰래 위로) (Ah~)
여기서 끝이 아냐 고갤 들고 나를 찾아봐
(들아봐)
저기 달이 뜬 Tonight (Tonight~ oh~)

더 날아보자 Trust me
더 채워줄게 하늘 위
최츄 더 높이 붕붕 뜰래 위로 (꺄)
더 날아보자 Trust me (Oh~)
더 채워줄게 하늘 위 (Yeah~)
더 높이 붕붕 뜰래 위로
