Coldplay teased the lyrics of their single with BTS

On Sept. 23, Coldplay tweeted out an image with multicolored writing on it. It turns out the writing on the graphic is the lyrics of “My Universe.”

Some of the lyrics included on the graphic are:

  • “You are my Universe / And I just want to put you first”
  • “And they said that we can’t be together / Because / Because we come from different sides”
  • “You, you are / My Universe / And I, Just want to put you first/ And you, you are / My Universe / And you make my world light up inside”
  • “In the night I lie and look up at you / When the morning comes I watch you rise / There’s a paradise they couldn’t capture / That bright inside your eyes”
  • “My Universe (do do, do do) / My Universe (do do, do do) / My Universe (do do, do do) / (You make my world) / You make my world light up inside / (Make my world light up inside)

The image Coldplay tweeted also shows five different sets of the song’s Korean lyrics. Some of those lyrics are intermixed with the English phrases, “Never ending forever baby,” “When I’m without you I’m crazy,” and “We are made of each other baby.”
