II. Lyrics
(좀 더 다가와봐 뭐 어때)
(jom deo dagawabwa mwo eottae)
(The small thing approaches and we see what it is. How?)
원래 사랑은 그렇게 시작한대
wollae sarangeun geureoke sijakhandae
The original love begins like that
맘에 쏙 드는데 뭐 어때
mame ssok deuneunde mwo eottae
What do I hold in my mind? How?
뛰는 가슴 들키게 날 안아줘
ttwineun gaseum deulkige nal anajwo
My heart runs but I am found; you hold me on this day
Yo! 자신 있게 한걸음씩 나에게로
Yo! jasin itge hangeoreumssik naegero
Yo! Step by step, you walk to me
망설이지 말고 내가 원하는 대로
mangseoriji malgo naega wonhaneun daero
I don’t hesitate to say my wishes
다가와 내 옆에서 두려워하지마
dagawa nae yeopeseo duryeowohajima
You come into my arms, I don’t fear it
무엇보다 용기가 필요한 너와나
mueotboda yonggiga piryohan neowana
What I see is courage; you are necessary
나를 훔쳐보는 게 너무 기분 좋지만
nareul humchyeoboneun ge neomu gibun jojiman
You stole too much cheerfulness from me, but
아직은 넌 서툴러 (D’You wanna get my mind)
ajigeun neon seotulleo (D'You wanna get my mind)
You are already clumsy (D’You wanna get my mind)
내가 무서운 건지 순진한 척 하는지
naega museoun geonji sunjinhan cheok haneunji
It’s scary, I was naive and uptight
팔짱만 껴도 넌 깜짝 놀라서 당황하지
paljjangman kkyeodo neon kkamjjak nollaseo danghwanghaji
If you hold my arms, all of a sudden I will glow, but don’t panic
너와 같이 있을 때 나도 모르게
neowa gachi isseul ttae nado moreuge
When I was together with you, I was also confused
내 가슴이 터질 듯 두근거리네
nae gaseumi teojil deut dugeungeorine
My heart will stop and take a breath
그대의 대한 마음은 언제나 설레
geudaeui daehan maeumeun eonjena seolle
Your one-time heart, when it has too many opinions,
너무나, 좋아하니까 제발 날 이해해
neomuna, joahanikka jebal nal ihaehae
Because I like you, please understand
그런 너의 모습이 너무 귀여워서
geureon neoye moseubi neomu gwiyeowoseo
Like that, your features are too cute
내가 좋아하잖니
naega joahajanni
And I like you already
(좀 더 다가와봐 뭐 어때)
(jom deo dagawabwa mwo eottae)
(The small thing approaches and we see what it is. How?)
원래 사랑은 그렇게 시작한대
wollae sarangeun geureoke sijakhandae
The original love begins like that
맘에 쏙 드는데 뭐 어때
mame ssok deuneunde mwo eottae
What do I hold in my mind? How?
뛰는 가슴 들키게 날 안아줘
ttwineun gaseum deulkige nal anajwo
My heart runs but I am found; you hold me on this day
이제 사랑할 준비가 됐어나도 반해서
ije saranghal junbiga dwaesseonado banhaeseo
Now the love will prepare and become obvious
니 대답 기다리겠어
ni daedap gidarigesseo
I’m waiting for an answer
보여줘 혼자서 그러고 있지 말고
boyeojwo honjaseo geurigo itji malgo
It is apparent I am alone, but the words are here
이 시간이 왔으니 니 맘을 보여줘
i sigani wasseuni ni mameul boyeojwo
This time you came into my mind
I got to keep up with you and this love
다른 남자들보다 더 특별한 너
dareun namjadeulboda deo teukbyeolhan neo
I’ve seen different men, but you were special
너무 아름다워서 안나오는 용기야
neomu areumdawoseo annaoneun yonggiya
You had too much beauty, I had to gather courage when you came
이렇게 느껴 본적 없어 처음이야
ireoke neukkyeo bonjeok eopseo cheoeumiya
Like this I felt this wasn’t where you lived first
그래 감동스러워 내가 첫 여자란 게
geurae gamdongseureowo naega cheot yeojaran ge
Nevertheless, my first impression of that girl was good
너무 달콤한 느낌 (I wanna feel your love)
neomu dalkomhan neukkim (I wanna feel your love)
I have a very sweet impression (I wanna feel your love)
다른 아이들 모두 나를 부러워하지
dareun aideul modu nareul bureowohaji
All of the different children don’t envy me
너같이 멋진 남자가 날
neogachi meotjin namjaga nal
You’re beautiful with me, the man that people follow
따라 다닌다고
ttara danindago
As you come and go
너 같은 beautiful girl
neo gateun beautiful girl
You are the same beautiful girl
이 나를 만나주는 것만으로도 it’s unbelievable
i nareul mannajuneun geonmaneurodo it's unbelievable
The time you met me, it’s only one thing, it’s unbelievable
다들 부러워해 sometimes 잘 안 믿겨져
dadeul bureowohae sometimes jal an mitgyeojyeo
I envy it all sometimes, but believing comes out well
고맙고 행복해 just want you to know
gomapgo haengbokhae just want you to know
I’m grateful, I’m happy, just want you to know
그런 너의 모습이 너무 예뻐 보여
geureon neoye moseubi neomu yeppeo boyeo
Like that your features were too pretty, in my mind,
내 맘 다 주고 싶어
nae mam da jugo sipeo
I want to give it all to you
(좀 더 다가와봐 뭐 어때)

My heart runs but I am found; you hold me on this day
너에게 바라는 건 내 맘 알아주라는 거
neoege baraneun geon nae mam arajuraneun geo
I wish for you, in my heart I recognize you
When I need you 날 많이 아껴 주라는 거
When I need you nal mani akkyeo juraneun geo
When I need you, the many days are like a grudge
힘들고 불안하면 옆에 있어주라는 거
himdeulgo buranhamyeon yeope isseojuraneun geo
It is hard when I’m insecure, but you’re here at my side
너도 알고 있잖아 it’s only you that I love
neodo algo itjana it's only you that I love
And I already know, it’s only you that I love
사실은 너도 내 첫 남자야 용기
sasireun neodo nae cheot namjaya yonggi
The fact is you also were my first man
내봐 나처럼 나를 이끌어줘
