Female 1: Bright, gentle, youthful (think Sabrina Carpenter x Olivia Rodrigo)]
[Male 1]
아침 햇살에 쏟아진 내 꿈,
[Female 1, Call]
"네 꿈은 뭐야?"
[Male 1]
아직 멀었지만 나 조금씩,
[Female 1, Cheer]
"멈추지 마!"
[Male 2]
친구들과 밤새 얘기했던
[Female 2]
작은 바람, 커진 희망

[Male 1/Female 1, Main]
우리 사이, 그 틈(Gap)
꿈과 현실 그 사이(Gap)
넘어가, 더 높이 Jump
다시 한 번, 손을 잡아
[Male 2/Female 2, Harmony/Answer]
We close the gap, we run
We close the gap, we run
이 순간을 믿어
We close the gap, we shine
이건 우리 소원이야!
