[Intro / Spoken]
“Even when I get hurt
I’ll fall in love again.”
[Verse 1]
Sweet words left me crying through the night
Promises were all that stayed behind
Every time I leave the wrong one behind
I get a little better at reading the signs
I never gave up on love
I just chose reality
Even all the tears I cried yesterday
I’m turning into beats today
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m free to fall for anyone
But I’m the one who gets to choose
I’ll see it clearly with my own two eyes
Then run straight to the next dancefloor
[Chorus]
No matter how old I get
No matter how much I’ve been hurt
Romance still won’t stop
I still dream, but I keep my eyes open
I can still fall in love with someone
Even when somebody leaves
Even when promises disappear
Romance still won’t stop
With steps more free than yesterday
I’m still dancing
[Drop]
Still! Won’t! Stop!
(La-la-la, won’t stop!)
I still dream! My eyes stay open!
(La-la-la, still dancing!)
[Verse 2]
Don’t put my name into a story
You wrote all by yourself
I won’t play another part
In somebody else’s dream again
If you can enjoy this real world with me
Then come on, let’s dance
Listen when I speak, know how to wait
That’s all I ask—is that so hard?
[Pre-Chorus]
If you get it wrong, just say you’re sorry
If something feels wrong, stop and think
If you can keep your eyes straight ahead
We can start again as many times as we need
[Chorus]
No matter how old I get
No matter how much I’ve been hurt
Romance still won’t stop
I still dream, but I keep my eyes open
I can still fall in love with someone
Even when somebody leaves
Even when promises disappear
Romance still won’t stop
With steps more free than yesterday
I’m still dancing
[Breakdown]
I can’t get back the time I lost
So I won’t put today on hold
I’ll take the girl who cried with me
I won’t leave my wounded heart behind
“Reality is pretty interesting, you know…
…well, who knows?”
[Build]
Fall in love!
Look for real!
If it’s wrong—walk away!
Then fall in love again—
[Final Chorus]
No matter how old I get
No matter how much I’ve been hurt
Romance still won’t stop
I still dream, but I keep my eyes open
I can still fall in love with someone
No matter how many times I fall
No matter how many times I start again
Romance still won’t stop
I decide where my future goes
And I’m still dancing now
[Final Drop]
Still! Won’t! Stop!
(La-la-la, won’t stop!)
Still! Falling in love!
(La-la-la, still dancing!)
Romance—
Still won’t stop!
[Outro]
I still dream
But I keep my eyes open
I’m still dancing

Romance Still Won't Stop (English Version)

Let them go. Draw the line. And still, never give up on romance.
*Passionate Women: A Drum & Bass Trilogy* tells the story of a woman reclaiming the right to choose her own life.
The first chapter, *Go Home, Please*, says goodbye to those who fall in love not with the person standing before them, but with a role they have written for her in their own imagined story.
The second, *No Outlaws on My Dancefloor*, draws the line. Violence, gambling, betrayal, and control do not become love or passion simply because someone chooses to call them that. If you're going to break something, break the beat-not another person's heart, life, or future. Freedom needs boundaries, and even the hardest beat is no excuse to cross them.
Then comes the final chapter, *Romance Still Won't Stop*.
Being hurt does not mean giving up on love. Dreaming and seeing reality clearly can exist together. You don't have to become a character in somebody else's story. You can choose your own future, keep your eyes open, fall in love again-and dance beside someone without surrendering yourself.
I still dream, but I keep my eyes open.
From leaving, to boundaries, and from boundaries back to love.
This trilogy is not about saying, "I don't need anyone." It is about staying yourself while connecting with others-choosing reality without losing romance, and continuing to dance through it all.
