KHÓI Lyrics English Translation by Hà Lê
Khắc Hưng writes lyrics that describe a love as dangerous as it is addictive. The line, ‘Hold me tight, wrap me in a hazy cloud of smoke,’ shows the struggle between wanting to escape and being unable to let go.
Baby, you’re no good for meBaby, you’re no good for me.
Anh biết bên cạnh em chẳng có tốt đẹp gìI know that being with you brings nothing good.
Em là bad girl, em rất là thú vịYou’re a bad girl, and you’re so intriguing.
Trong màn đêm, em là đốm sáng diệu kỳIn the dark of night, you’re a miraculous spark.
Ôm lấy anh, ôm lấy anh bằng làn khói mơ màngHold me tight, wrap me in a hazy cloud of smoke.
Thiêu đốt anh, thiêu đốt anh bằng hơi ấm nồng nànBurn me up, scorch me with your intense warmth.
Giết chết anh, giết chết anh một cách rất nhẹ nhàngKill me now, destroy me so very gently.
Thật là dịu êm nhưng cũng thật là phũ phàngIt’s so soothing, yet it’s so heartless.
Càng đẩy em ra xa, em lại cuốn anh vàoThe more I push you away, the more you pull me in.
Chạm vào đôi môi, rồi em trói anh vàoTouching your lips, you tie me down.
Để rời xa em, chẳng thể biết cách nàoI don’t know how to walk away from you,
Cách nào, ayany way at all, ay.
Baby, em chẳng có tốt đẹp gìBaby, you’re no good for me.
I know, I know, I knowI know, I know, I know.
Nhưng xin em hãy ôm lấy anh điBut please, just hold me now,
Because I can’t let gobecause I can’t let go.
Baby, em chẳng có tốt đẹp gìBaby, you’re no good for me.
I know, I know, I knowI know, I know, I know.
Nhưng xin em hãy ôm lấy anh điBut please, just hold me now,
Because I can’t let gobecause I can’t let go.
Baby, you’re no good for meBaby, you’re no good for me.
But she got me good, I don’t disagreeBut she’s got me good, I don’t disagree.
Hot like fire, but I got brain freezeHot like fire, but I’ve got brain freeze.
Taking my life, killing me softlyTaking my life, killing me softly.
Got my pulse on high levelGot my pulse racing fast,
See my breath visibleseeing my breath in the air.
Feelin’ numb, unthinkableFeeling numb, it’s unthinkable.
Got me shiver, got me trembleGot me shivering, got me trembling.
Rushin’ through my veinRushing through my veins,
Easing up all my paineasing up all my pain.
She said it’s okayShe said it’s okay,
Life in the fast laneliving life in the fast lane.
Càng đẩy em ra xa, em lại cuốn anh vàoThe more I push you away, the more you pull me in.
Chạm vào đôi môi, rồi em trói anh vàoTouching your lips, you tie me down.
Để rời xa em, chẳng thể biết cách nàoI don’t know how to walk away from you,
Cách nào, ayany way at all, ay.
Baby, em chẳng có tốt đẹp gìBaby, you’re no good for me.
I know, I know, I knowI know, I know, I know.
Nhưng xin em hãy ôm lấy anh điBut please, just hold me now,
Because I can’t let gobecause I can’t let go.
