The Meaning Behind TWICE's New Song Will Make You Fall Deeper In Love With Them
They did it again, ONCE!
New music from TWICE is here! The K-Pop girl group is starting summer right with an upbeat anthem that will have you dancing all summer long. The beat is enough to get the party started, but what do TWICE's "Alcohol-Free" lyrics mean in English? Here’s the tea.
The title of “Alcohol-Free” may seem like an anti-party anthem, but it’s anything but. The coinciding music video is all about having a blast in a tropical destination. The visual, which arrived on June 9, shows the TWICE ladies living their best life in a palm tree-filled oasis. Between sipping colorful cocktails (or mocktails) and flaunting their best dance moves, the gals sing about being high on life and love.
The same day the song and video were released, TWICE hit the stage on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Much like the video, they brought lots of color and high energy to the show’s stage. Oh, and the band also wants fans at home to dance along with them.
With their new song, TWICE are giving a new meaning to the phrase “drunk in love,” and ONCE can catch the meaning behind every lyric below.
Verse 1: Nayeon, Mina
When I am with you
Something magical happens
I keep smiling for no reason
Though there is nothing going on
Pre-Chorus: Chaeyoung, Jihyo, Jeongyeon, Momo
A spell is cast upon me
I could stay up all night without feeling sleepy
All other thoughts go away
And my heart beats louder
Suddenly love feels so easy
So I fall deeper and deeper for you
That's what you do to me
Chorus: Nayeon, Tzuyu
I am alcohol-free but I get drunk (Drunk, drunk)
Though I did not drink at all (At all)
It happens whenever I'm with you (Whenever, whenever)
Because of the way you look at me
Post-Chorus: Sana, Momo, Jihyo
You are my champagne, my wine I drink with my eyes
My tequila, margarita
Mojito with lime
Sweet mimosa, piña colada
I'm drunk in you (I'm drunk in you)
I'm drunk in you (I'm drunk in you)
Verse 2: Dahyun, Jihyo
You are so special
Although not hard at all (Yeah)
You make the stars come out in broad daylight
With just one sip
Pre-Chorus: Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Tzuyu, Mina
A spell is cast upon me
I could stay up all night without feeling sleepy
All other thoughts go away
And my heart beats louder
Suddenly love feels so easy
So I fall deeper and deeper for you
That's what you do to me
Chorus: Sana, Jihyo
I am alcohol-free but I get drunk (Drunk, drunk)
Though I did not drink at all (At all)
It happens whenever I'm with you (Whenever, whenever)
Because of the way you look at me
Bridge: Dahyun, Chaeyoung
Yo, alcohol percentage is completely 0.0%
But I get lost whenever I drink
It doesn't wear off even after sleep
But I actually quite like this feeling
Easy to the mouth and tummy
Like a drink made of honey
What's the name of this drink, anyway?
Makes the whole world bright and sunny
Chorus: Nayeon, Tzuyu
I am alcohol-free but I get drunk (Drunk, drunk)
Though I did not drink at all (At all)
It happens whenever I'm with you
Because of the way you look at me
Post-Chorus: Sana, Momo, Mina
You are my champagne, my wine I drink with my eyes
My tequila, margarita
Mojito with lime
Sweet mimosa, piña colada
I'm drunk in you (I'm drunk in you)
I'm drunk in you (I'm drunk in you)
