Lyrics
#

전화 한 번 못하니 벌써 날 잊어버렸니 (Jeonhwa han beon moshani beolsseo nal ijeobeoryeossni)
Did you already forget me because you couldn’t even call once?

아님 이제 내 번호조차도 기억 못 하니 (Anim ije nae beonhojachado gieok mot hani)
Or do you not even remember my number now?

잘 지내는지 밥은 챙겨 먹는지 (Jal jinaeunji babeun chaenggyeo meogneunji)
Are you doing well, are you eating your meals?

너 없이 울진 않을까 걱정도 안되니 (Neo eopsi uljin anheulkka geokjeongdo andoendi)
I’m not even worried that I might cry without you

끊는 전화가 오면 혹시나 네가 아닐까 (Kkeunnneun jeonhwaga omyeon hokshina nega anilkka)
When a call is disconnected, I wonder if it might be you

하루 종일 네 생각에 숨이 멎을 것 같아 (Haru jongil ne saenggake sumi meogeul geot gata)
I feel like my breath stops all day thinking about you

좋은 걸 봐도 맛있는 걸 먹어도 (Joheun geol bwado masinneun geol meogeodo)
Even if I see good things, even if I eat delicious food

눈물에 가리고 또 얹혀서 너만 더 생각나 (Nunmure garigo tto eonhyeoseo neoman deo saenggakna)
They are covered with tears and I think of you even more

사랑해 이렇게 나를 울려도 (Saranghae ireohge nareul ullyeodo)
I love you, even though you make me cry like this

미안해 널 잊을 수가 없어서 (Mianhae neol ijeul suga eopseoseo)
I’m sorry, I can’t forget you

매일 숨을 쉴 때마다 눈 감을 때마다 (Maeil sumeul swil ttaemada nun gameul ttaemada)
Every day, when I breathe and close my eyes

네 기억과 함께 사는 걸 (Nae gieokgwa hamkke saneun geol)
I live with memories of you

어떡해 나 정말 너무 아픈데 (Eotteokhae na jeongmal neomu apeunde)
What should I do? It hurts so much

너 땜에 딴 사랑도 못하잖아 (Neo ttaeme ttan sarangdo mothajanh)
Because of you, I can’t love anyone else

아무리 널 욕해봐도 미워 해봐도 (Amuri neol yokhaebwado miwo haebwado)
No matter how much I try to curse you, no matter how much I try to hate you

나에겐 그래도 사랑인 걸 (Naegen geuraedo sarangin geol)
To me, it’s still love

좋은 사람 생겼니 요즘도 많이 바쁘니 (Joheun saram saenggyeotni yojeumdo manhi bappeuni)
Have you found a good person? Are you still very busy these days?

얼마 전 네 생일엔 누구와 함께 보냈니 (Eolma jeon ne saengil-en nugwa hamkke bonaetni)
Did you spend your recent birthday with someone else?

정말 못됐어 헤어지면 끝이니 (Jeongmal motdwaesseo heeojimyeon kkeutini)
It’s really bad, once we break up, it’s over

사랑이 어떻게 어떻게 그럴 수 있니 (Sarangi eotteoke eotteoke georeul su inni)
How can love, how can it be like this?

사랑해 이렇게 나를 울려도 (Saranghae ireohge nareul ullyeodo)
I love you, even though you make me cry like this

미안해 널 잊을 수가 없어서 (Mianhae neol ijeul suga eopseoseo)
I’m sorry, I can’t forget you

매일 숨을 쉴 때마다 눈 감을 때마다 (Maeil sumeul swil ttaemada nun gameul ttaemada)
Every day, when I breathe and close my eyes

네 기억과 함께 사는 걸 (Nae gieokgwa hamkke saneun geol)
I live with memories of you

어떡해 나 정말 너무 아픈데 (Eotteokhae na jeongmal neomu apeunde)
What should I do? It hurts so much

너 땜에 딴 사랑도 못하잖아 (Neo ttaeme ttan sarangdo mothajanh)
Because of you, I can’t love anyone else

아무리 널 욕해봐도 미워해 봐도 (Amuri neol yokhaebwado miwo haebwado)
No matter how much I try to curse you, no matter how much I try to hate you

나에겐 그래도 사랑인 걸 (Naegen geuraedo sarangin geol)
To me, it’s still love

돌아와 도저히 난 안되겠어 (Dorawa dojeohi nan andoegesseo)
Come back, I just can’t do it without you

너 없인 아무것도 못하잖아 (Neo eopsi amugeosdo mothajanha)
I can’t do anything without you

네 자리가 너무 커서 채울 수 없어서 (Nae jariga neomu keoseo chaeul su eopseoseo)
Your place is too big to fill

내 눈물만 흘러넘쳐 난 (Nae nunmulman heulleoneomchyeo nan)
My tears keep overflowing

죽어도 죽어도 난 널 못 잊어 (Jugeodo jugeodo nan neol mot ijeo)
Even if I die, even if I die, I can’t forget you

함께한 추억이 너를 붙잡아 (Hamkkehan chueogi neoreul butjaba)
Memories of us hold onto you

조금 늦어도 괜찮아 돌아오면 돼 (Jogeum neutteodo gwaenchanha dorao-myeon dwae)
It’s okay even if it’s a little late, just come back

나에겐 그래도 사랑인 걸 (Naegen geuraedo sarangin geol)
To me, it’s still love
