明日が来るのが恐い　(恐い)
いつからか怯えてる Happy Birthday
プレゼントされたいものは Priceless
あえて言えないくらい Simple
アツくなれるものが欲しい　(欲しい)
ただ夢中になりたいだけ
順番にツキはまわってこない
知ってるからジタバタしてんじゃない

年相応のいいものを
身に着けてみてもグッと来ない
ホットなスポットをチェックして空しくなるの
何がしたいより　できないかで
自分を見くびってる暇はない

連れて行って Passion
摩天楼へ Ride on
存在価値を Tell me
心ふるわせて
Manhattan で Tango, Tango　踊るの

Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow　踊るの
Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick, quick, slow
演目は Tango
存在証明の “Title” Tango
今宵 Dance for me

忘れられるのが恐い　(恐い)
切なくよぎるラ・クンパルシータ
あんな風にいつか愛されてみたい
願い事はいつも Simple

アツく夢を語りたい　(恐い)
それほど本気じゃないふりして
語尾は濁して保険かけて
叶わないこと前提じゃない

解き放して Passion
摩天楼を Shake it
存在価値を Shout it out
心ふるわせて
Manhattan で Tango, Tango　踊るの

Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow　踊るの
Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick, quick, slow
再演も Tango
自分自身 “Te amo” Tango
今宵 Dance with me

一見優雅なステップは見せかけ
ゼンマイ仕掛け My mind (My mind)
毎秒揺れ動いて
心ふるわせ
Manhattan で Tango, Tango　踊るの

Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow　踊るの
Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick, quick, slow
演目は Tango
存在証明の “Title” Tango
今宵 Dance for me

I’m afraid tomorrow would come (afraid)
Since when did I become shaken by Happy Birthday
The present I want is priceless
So simple I don’t dare to say what it is
I want to be passionate about something (I want)
I just wanna be crazy about it
Luck doesn’t come to me even when it’s my turn to have some
I knew it and that’s why I’m struggling

Tried dressing nice for my age but I don’t get the feels
Checking in hot spots and I only feel empty
Instead of what do I want to do
I asked myself will I be able to do it?
No free time to look down on myself

Take me, passion
To the skyscrape, ride on
Tell me the value of my existence
Make my heart tremble
Dancing Tango Tango in Manhattan

Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow I’m dancing
Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick, quick, slow
Performance today is Tango
“Title” Tango that proves my existence
Tonight dance for me

Scared of being forgotten (scared)
The heart-wrenching La Cumparsita passing by
I wanna be loved like that some day
My wish is always Simple

Wanna talk passionately about my dream (scared)
Pretending I’m not that serious about it
Vaguely trailing off each sentence to protect myself
Doesn’t this mean I’m assuming my dream won’t come true?

Set free, passion
The skyscraper, shake it
The value of my existence, shout it out
Make my heart tremble
Dancing Tango Tango in Manhattan

Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow I’m dancing
Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick, quick, slow
Again the performance today is Tango
My very own “Te amo” Tango
Tonight dance with me

Elegant move at a glance is just an illusion
Like clockwork, my mind (my mind)
Every second swaying and moving
Make my heart tremble
Dancing Tango Tango in Manhattan

Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow I’m dancing
Slow, slow, quick, quick, quick, quick, slow
Performance today is Tango
“Title” Tango that proves my existence
Tonight dance for me
