My eyes
Want you more than a melody
Let me inside
Wish I could get to know you
Nini: *sings* Sunflowers sometimes keep it sweet in your memory
I was just tongue-tied
Ricky: *sings* And I don't wanna make you feel bad
But I've been trying hard not to talk to you
My sunflower
Nini and Ricky: *sings* I couldn't want you any more
Kiss in the kitchen like it's a dance floor
I couldn't want you any more
