OH~似曾相識

那一瞥 人潮如海的街 和妳擦身而過 有些恍神一再回頭
她發現 我的心不在焉 我卻無法解釋是誰 亂了我生活

該怎麼做才能把回憶都刪除 那錯過的幸福 我像跌入迷霧
遇見妳有種似曾相識的感覺 OH 彷彿有同樣感受在妳的眼底 OH
能不能讓我們再相遇 能不能讓我再次認識妳 似曾相識有如遊戲

wu~似曾相識 yeah~

那一瞥 陷入妳的世界 和妳擦身而過 卻忘了要往那裡走
她感覺 我的心看不見 我該怎麼解釋是妳 亂了我生活

該怎麼做才能把回憶都刪除 那錯過的幸福 我像跌入迷霧
遇見妳有種似曾相識的感覺 OH 我看見同樣的感受在妳眼底 OH
能不能讓我們再相遇 能不能讓我再次認識妳 似曾相識有如遊戲

遇見妳有種似曾相識的感覺 OH 是否在前世我們有一段過去 OH
能不能這次改變命運 能不能這次讓我真的愛妳 還是往事別再提起 YEAH

似曾相識 似曾相識 OH~

遇見妳有種似曾相識的感覺 OH 是否在前世我們有一段過去 OH
能不能幫我把妳忘記 能不能幫我停下對妳追尋 或許我能不再想妳

遇見妳有種似曾 見妳有種似曾 相識的感覺
