Film ‘The Last 10 Years’ Collaboration Single [JOY, BIG Naughty (Seo Donghyeon) - My Lips Like Warm Coffee]

The film ‘The Last 10 Years’ depicts a love story that decorates four dazzling seasons, featuring ‘Matsuri’, who is diagnosed with a rare disease at twenty, meeting ‘Kazuto’, who has lost the will to live. It stars Nana Komatsu and Kentaro Sakaguchi. With its re-release in Korea last April, the anticipation was heightened by the release of this collaboration single.

The title track of the group S#ARP’s 4.5th album released in 2001, ‘My Lips Like Warm Coffee’, has been reborn as a collaboration single for ‘The Last 10 Years’ by JOY and BIG Naughty (Seo Donghyeon).

‘Like Warm Coffee on My Lips’ starts with BIG Naughty’s warm intro and continues with JOY’s sweet voice. The lyrics convey the poignant feelings of a couple facing separation, and the small ensemble of guitar, percussion, and string quartet ensures listeners can fully focus on the singers’ voices.

Additionally, producer team AIMING participated in the production, and the song’s completeness was enhanced with strings by Aim Strings.

울지 마 이미 지난 일이야 (Ulji ma imi jinan iriya)
Don’t cry, it’s already in the past

삶의 반직선 위에 점일 뿐이야 (Salmui banjikseon wie jeomil ppuniya)
It’s just a dot on the half-line of life

살아가면서 누구나 겪는 일이야 (Saragamyeonseo nuguna gyeokneun iriya)
It’s something everyone goes through as they live

어른이 되는 단지 과정일 뿐야 (Eoreuni doeneun danji gwajeongil ppunya)
It’s just a process of becoming an adult

Uh 단지 과정일 뿐야 (Uh danji gwajeongil ppunya)
Uh, just a process

제발 이러지 말아요 (Jebal ireoji marayo)
Please don’t do this

끝이라는 얘기 (Kkeutiraneun yaegi)
The talk of an end

나는 항상 시작인 걸요 (Naneun hangsang sijagin geolyo)
For me, it’s always a beginning

그댈 사랑하는 마음 (Geudael saranghaneun maeum)
The heart that loves you

점점 커져가고 있는 날 (Jeomjeom keojyeogago inneun nal)
You know well the days that are growing

잘 알잖아요 (Jal aljanayo)
You know well

네가 밟고 걷는 땅이 되고 싶던 난 (Nega balpgo geonneun ttangi doego sipdeon nan)
I wanted to be the ground you walk on

잠시라도 네 입술 따뜻하게 데워준 (Jamsirado ne ipsul ttatteutage dewojun)
Even for a moment, I wanted to be the coffee that warmed your lips

커피가 되어주고 싶었었던 난 (Keopiga doejugo sipeosseo tteon nan)
I wanted to be the coffee for you

아직도 널 울리고 있을 거야 (Ajikdo neol ulligo isseul geoya)
Even now, I might still be making you cry

아마도 난 (Amado nan)
Maybe I am

사랑해 사랑하는 마음 말고 왜 (Saranghae saranghaneun maeum malgo wae)
I love you, but why do I need so much more than just the feeling of loving you?

이렇게도 너무 (Ireohgedo neomu)
Why is it that I need so much?

필요한 게 많은 건지 왜 (Piryohan ge maneun geonji wae)
Why do I need so much?

지금 너를 만나지 않아도 널 (Jigeum neoreul mannaji anado neol)
Even if I don’t meet you now

울리고 있을 내가 (Ulligo isseul naega)
I’ll still be making you cry

나는 왜 이리도 싫은 건지 (Naneun wae irido sireun geonji)
Why do I dislike myself so much?

나를 많이 알잖아요 (Nareul mani aljanayo)
You know me well

그댈 사랑하며 (Geudael saranghamyeo)
Loving you

나를 모두 버렸다는 걸 (Nareul modu beoryeossdaneun geol)
I abandoned everything of myself

혼자 울며 걷는 나를 (Honja ulmyeo geonneun nareul)
Walking alone, crying

모르나요 (Moreunayo)
Don’t you know?

그러니 제발 (Geureoni jebal)
So please

이러지 마요 (Ireoji mayo)
Don’t do this

그래 어느 하늘 아래 안에 (Geurae eoneu haneul arae ane)
Yes, under a certain sky

작은 내 사랑 (Jageun nae sarang)
My small love

이젠 나의 사랑 한단 말도 (Ijen naui sarang handan maldo)
Now even the words of my love

의미도 잠시 (Uimido jamsi)
Are momentary

우리의 힘들었던 지나간 (Uriui himdeureossdeon jinagan)
Our difficult past

나의 넌 기리 위리 (Naui neon giri wiri)
You and I, forever and always

우리의 히리 위리 (Uriui hiri wiri)
Our forever and always

돌릴 수 없는 우리 (Dollil su eomneun uri)
We can’t turn back

I Know (I Know)
I know

이제는 돌리지 못할 거란 걸 (Ijeneun dolliji mothal georan geol)
That we can’t turn back now

You Know (You Know)
You know

아니 너를 사랑한단 걸 (Ani neoreul saranghandan geol)
That I love you

오래전 노래처럼 오래오래 (Oeraejeon noraecheoreom oeraeorae)
Like an old song, forever

널 간직할래 그래 (Neol ganjikhallae geurae)
I’ll cherish you, yes

너만을 위한 나의 사랑은 이래 (Neomaneul wihan naui sarangeun irae)
My love for you is like this

꿈에서라도 싫어요 (Kkumeseorado sireoyo)
Even in a dream, I hate it

떠나지 말아요 (Tteonaji marayo)
Don’t leave

나는 죽을지도 몰라요 (Naneun jugeuljido mollayo)
I might die

이대로 행복한걸요 (Idaero haengbokhangeolyo)
I’m happy like this

모르겠나요 (Moreugenayo)
Don’t you know?

아무것도 바라지 않아 (Amugeotdo baraji ana)
I don’t want anything

지나간 사랑으로 날 (Jinagan sarangeuro nal)
With past love

그대의 추억 속에서 살게 할 건가요 (Geudaeui chueok sokeseo salge hal geongayo)
Will you let me live in your memories?

사랑은 계속 커져갈 텐데 (Sarangeun gyesok keojyeogal tende)
Love will keep growing

이대로 나를 정말 보낼 건가요 (Idaero nareul jeongmal bonael geongayo)
Will you really send me off like this?

울지 마 이미 지난 일이야 (Ulji ma imi jinan iriya)
Don’t cry, it’s already in the past

삶의 반직선 위에 점일 뿐이야 (Salm

ui banjikseon wie jeomil ppuniya)
It’s just a dot on the half-line of life

살아가면서 누구나 겪는 일이야 (Saragamyeonseo nuguna gyeokneun iriya)
It’s something everyone goes through as they live

어른이 되는 단지 과정일 뿐야 (Eoreuni doeneun danji gwajeongil ppunya)
It’s just a process of becoming an adult

Uh 단지 과정일 뿐야 (Uh danji gwajeongil ppunya)
Uh, just a process
