After School

• By: Weeekly

Lyrics:

[한국어]

[English]

"띠링", 이따 거기서 보는 거, 맞지?

Ding, see you there later, right?

시간 잘, 맞춰 늦으면, 반칙

Time it right, don’t be late or it’s a foul

시계만 자꾸 보는 걸 (oh-whoa, oh-whoa)

Just keep watching the clock (oh-whoa, oh-whoa)

난 이미 교복 치마 대신 체육복 바지

I’m already in athletic shorts instead of a school skirt

복도 끝까지 달려갈 준비

Ready to run all the way down the hall

마지막 종소리가 울리면 (oh-whoa, oh-whoa)

When the final bell rings (oh-whoa, oh-whoa)

벌써 저기 오렌지빛 하늘이 짙어지는 걸

The orange sky is already deepening

어서 머뭇거리다간 금세 어두워질 걸

Hurry up or it’ll get dark in no time

우린 스케이트보드 위로

We’re on our skateboards

마치 춤을 추듯 발을 굴러

Rolling our feet as if we’re dancing

바람 그 사이를 가로질러

Cutting through the wind

여기저기 멀리, 아주아주 멀리 (저 끝까지)

Far and wide, so far away (to the very end)

I'm so good with you (따라와, catch up)

I'm so good with you (Follow me, catch up)

두 눈을 맞추고 긴 머리 날리고

Lock eyes and toss your long hair

Ready, set, go, feel it

Ready, set, go, feel it

자유로운 기분인 걸

It’s a feeling of complete freedom

Yo, yo, yo, 지그재그, 춤을 춰

Yo, yo, yo, zigzag, dance

Yo, yo, yo, yo (Tag Me, Tag Me, Tag Me)

Yo, yo, yo, yo (Tag Me, Tag Me, Tag Me)

Yeah, 속도를 올려봐

Yeah, pick up the pace

휘청거리다가 넘어져서 올려다 본 하늘은 (wow)

Stumbling and falling, then looking up at the sky that’s like (wow)

Download 한 phone game보다 짜릿한 이 놀이

This thrill beats any downloaded phone game

같이 만든 우리 playlist, 좀 더 크게 틀어줘

Our playlist we made together, crank it up louder

지금 이 순간은 돌아오지 않아

This moment won’t come back

여기 눈부시게 반짝이는 걸

It’s shining brightly here

모두 담았어, 전부 다 찍었어

I captured it all, took everything

앨범 가득한 video, 어디로 튈지 모를 걸

A video full of memories, unpredictable where it’ll go

우린 코드가 딱 맞았지 만난 날부터

From the day we met, our codes just fit perfectly

You know 말을 안 해도 늘 맘이 잘 통하는 걸

You know, even without saying anything, we always understood each other

우린 스케이트보드 위로

We’re on our skateboards

마치 춤을 추듯 발을 굴러

Rolling our feet as if we’re dancing

바람 그 사이를 가로질러

Cutting through the wind

여기저기 멀리 아주아주 멀리 (저 끝까지)

Far and wide, so far away (to the very end)

I'm so good with you (따라와, catch up)

I'm so good with you (Follow me, catch up)

두 눈을 맞추고, 긴 머리 날리고

Lock eyes and toss your long hair

Ready, set, go, feel it

Ready, set, go, feel it

자유로워 이대로

We’re free just like this

멈추지 마, 저 끝까지 훌쩍 날아가

Don’t stop, fly far beyond

우린 이제 이곳을 벗어날 거야

We’re leaving this place now

그때 마주친 그 표정을 잊을 수 없었지

I’ll never forget that look you gave then

우린 서로 스며들어

We’re blending into each other

친구보단 또 다른 나인 거 같아

Feeling like I’m more than just a friend

일렁이는 맘을 타고 날아 (singing, winging)

Flying on the fluttering heart (singing, winging)

우린 스케이트보드 위로

We’re on our skateboards

마치 춤을 추듯 발을 굴러

Rolling our feet as if we’re dancing

바람 그 사이를 가로질러

Cutting through the wind

여기저기 멀리 아주아주 멀리 (저 끝까지)

Far and wide, so far away (to the very end)

I'm so good with you (따라와, catch up)

I'm so good with you (Follow me, catch up)

두 눈을 맞추고, 긴 머리 날리고

Lock eyes and toss your long hair

Ready, set, go, feel it

Ready, set, go, feel it

자유로워 이대로

We’re free just like this

Singing that, singing that, singing that

Singing that, singing that, singing that

Singing that cool, singing that cool

Singing that cool, singing that cool

(Singing that) 카메라 보며 인사를 해줘

(Singing that) Wave and say hello to the camera

(Singing that) 지금 그 표정 각도가 예뻐

(Singing that) Your expression now is so pretty

Record the video 지금 이 순간을

Record this moment now

자유로운 기분인 걸

It’s a feeling of pure freedom
