II. Lyrics
지금 눈부시게 쏟아지는 햇살 아래
jigeum nunbusige ssodajineun haetsal arae
Right now, under the dazzling, spilling sunshine
Yah yah yah
바람 불어오는 방향 따라 걸어
baram bureooneun banghyang ttara georeo
I’m walking along the direction of the blowing wind
My way yah yah yah
이 순간도 스쳐지나 버릴 찰나가 돼
i sungando seuchyeojina beoril chalnaga dwae
This moment will just pass
Yah yah yah
가장 소중한 걸 놓치지 않게
gajang sojunghan geol nochiji anke
So I won’t lose the most precious thing
잊고 있던 날 찾아봐
itgo itdeon nal chajabwa
I’m looking for my forgotten self
Yah yah yah
Oooooo
Meet my expectations
Oooooo
잠시만 여기 멈춰
jamsiman yeogi meomchwo
Hold on, let’s stop here
숨 가쁘도록 달려왔던 우리
sum gappeudorok dallyeowatdeon uri
We ran here till we ran out of breath
Just a second
두 번 다시 오지 않는 오늘
du beon dasi oji anneun oneul
This day won’t ever come again
Take a second
잠깐 아주 잠깐
jamkkan aju jamkkan
For just a moment, just a short moment
똑같이 반복되는 하루들이
ttokgachi banbokdweneun harudeuri
So the repeating days
맘껏 숨을 쉬게
mamkkeot sumeul swige
can take a breath
좀 느린 듯이 느껴지더라도
jom neurin deusi neukkyeojideorado
Even if it feels slow
Just a second
Don’t think for a minute
it’ll only take a second
잠깐 아주 잠깐
jamkkan aju jamkkan
For just a moment, just a short moment

Only if I go where my feet lead me
