Rumours that BTS and Charli XCX had teamed up on a song together first surfaced last month when BPI registered a brand, new song titled 'Glow' with the two acts registered as composers. Today BTS released 'Dream Glow' with Charli XCX as the first song from their highly anticipated BTS World soundtrack. BTS World is an upcoming video game which will allow fans to manage the band. BTS World drops June 26th and BTS are releasing three songs to accompany it.

'Dream Glow' is the first taste of the BTS World soundtrack and it is an inspirational anthem. Produced by Stargate (Selena Gomez, Rihanna, Beyoncé), 'Dream Glow' features moving lyrics about following your dreams and not letting anyone stop you. Charli sings her verse in English, meanwhile Jungkook, Jin and Jimin (it looks like each BTS World song will be split between the band) sing both in Korean and English.

Dream Glow (BTS World Original Soundtrack)

Standout lyrics from 'Dream Glow' include: "Wandering quietly right into my dreams // It’s all that I see what you gonna say" and "My constellation is a fragment of the sun // A glorious blackout, shadow’s dance". Like all of the BTS singles before it, 'Dream Glow' is poetic and beautiful but, beyond that, it slaps. We can't wait to hear what the other new songs the band have recorded sound like.

BTS & Charli XCX - 'Dream Glow' lyrics

VERSE 1
I spend my whole life following the night time
Can't see the stop sign what you gonna say (Hey)
Wandering quietly right into my dreams
It’s all that I see what you gonna say (Hey)

PRE-CHORUS
Always feeling something bigger something real wild
Keep on shining make it brighter than a spotlight (Hey hey)

CHORUS
Sometimes I stop and stare
Follow my dreams right there
Dream glow (Hey hey)
Sometimes my dreams come true
Sometimes they turn to blue
Dream glow (Hey hey)

VERSE 2
Kind boys who were easy to raise
Bruised knees they used to hide (Hey)
My constellation is a fragment of the sun
A glorious blackout, shadow’s dance (Hey)

PRE-CHORUS
Inside my heart I feel and invincible light
Can’t lose to an opponent I haven't met (Hey hey)

CHORUS
What used to be a blinding future ay ay ay
Pausing it for a while ay ay will glow (Hey hey)
My dream is here to stay ay ay ay
I won't give up ay ay you'll glow (Hey hey)

BRIDGE
In the dark of dawn, I spread my trembling wings
Keep on shining make it brighter than a spotlight (Hey hey)

CHORUS
Sometimes I stop and stare
Follow my dreams right there
Dream glow (Hey hey)
My dream is here to stay ay ay ay
I won’t give up
Dream glow (Hey hey)
You’ll glow (Hey hey)
You’ll glow (Hey hey)
