[English]

Watching you sitting on the bench

When our eyes met, I couldn’t help but smile

A story no one else knows

A secret only we share

That’s enough for me

One earphone is playing the same song

The one that gave you comfort

When that day comes to mind

I’ll hold you close, quietly, and tell you

I guess that’s how it is

I’m still feeling that flutter

Even after all this time

Your unchanging self

I promise I won’t change either

I love you

I guess that’s how it is

It still feels like a gift to me

I’ll keep this promise until the day I close my eyes in this world

Only you

I love you

We don’t need many words, yeah

Hold my hand like now, yeah

The night the song keeps playing

It all seems so romantic

I share a few lines of a story to make you smile

Oh, I’m thankful for being together

Lying on the grass, feeling the sunshine

When the day that made my heart race comes to mind

I’ll hold you close, quietly, and tell you

I guess that’s how it is

I’m still feeling that flutter

Even after all this time

Your unchanging self

I promise I won’t change either

I love you

I guess that’s how it is

It still feels like a gift to me

Until the day I close my eyes in this world

I promise

Only you

I love you

[Korean]

벤치에 앉아 있는 널 바라보다

눈이 마주쳤을 때 웃고 말았지

아무도 모르는 얘기

우리 둘만 아는 비밀

그걸로 충분해

한쪽 이어폰엔 같은 노래

너에게 위로가 되었던

그날이 떠오를 때면

가만히 너를 꼭 안고 난 말할 거야

그런 것 같아

아직도 내겐 설렘인가 봐

지나간 시간 속에도

변하지 않는 네 모습

나 역시 변치 않을 걸 약속해

사랑해

그런 것 같아

아직도 내겐 선물인가 봐

이 세상에 눈을 감을 그날까지 약속할게

너만을

사랑해

많은 말 따윈 필요 없지 yeah

지금처럼 손을 잡아줘 yeah

노래가 흐르고 지새는 밤이

로맨틱하게만 보여

몇 줄의 이야기를 꺼내며 너를 웃게 해

Oh 함께 있음에 나 감사해

잔디밭에 누워서 햇살을 맞으며

두근거렸던 그날이 떠오를 때면

가만히 너를 꼭 안고 난 말할 거야

그런 것 같아

아직도 내겐 설렘인가 봐

지나간 시간 속에도

변하지 않는 네 모습

나 역시 변치 않을 걸 약속해

사랑해

그런 것 같아

아직도 내겐 선물인가 봐

이 세상에 눈을 감을 그날까지

약속할게

너만을

사랑해
