Lyrics:

[한국어]

[English]

내가 사준 옷을 걸치고

Wearing the clothes I bought you

내가 사준 향술 뿌리고

Spraying the perfume I chose

지금쯤 넌 그녈 만나

By now, you’re probably meeting her

또 웃고 있겠지

And smiling again

그렇게 좋았던 거니

Was it really that great?

날 버리고 떠날 만큼

To leave and abandon me

얼마나 더 어떻게 더 잘 해야 한 거니

How much more, how much better do I have to be?

너를 아무리 지울래도

No matter how hard I try to erase you

함께한 날이 얼마인데

The days we shared still linger

지난 시간이 억울해서

Old memories make me angry

자꾸 눈물이 흐르지만

Tears keep falling, but

보여줄게 완전히 달라진 나

I’ll show you, I’ve completely changed

보여줄게 훨씬 더 예뻐진 나

I’ll show you, I’ve become so much more beautiful

바보처럼 사랑 때문에

Like a fool, because I loved you

떠난 너 때문에 울지 않을래 (whoa oh whoa oh)

Because you left, I won’t cry (whoa oh whoa oh)

더 멋진 남잘 만나

Meet someone even cooler

꼭 보여줄게 너보다 행복한 나

And I’ll make sure you see that I’m happier than you

너 없이도 슬프지 않아 무너지지않아

Without you, I’m not sad, I won’t break down

Boy you gotta be aware (lalala lalala)

Boy you gotta be aware (lalala lalala)

산뜻하게 머릴 바꾸고

I change my hair to look fresh

정성 들여 화장도 하고

Put effort into my makeup

하이힐에 짧은 치마

High heels and a short skirt

모두 날 돌아봐

Everyone turns to look at me

우연히 라도 널 만나면

If I happen to meet you by chance

눈이 부시게 웃어주며

Smile brightly, as if I don’t care

놀란 니 모습 뒤로 한 채

Turning my back on your surprised face

또각 또각 걸어가려 해

And walk away, clicking my heels

보여줄게 완전히 달라진 나 (완전히 달라진 나)

I’ll show you, I’ve completely changed (completely different me)

보여줄게 훨씬 더 예뻐진 나 (oh oh oh)

I’ll show you, I’ve become so much more beautiful (oh oh oh)

바보처럼 사랑 때문에 (no no)

Like a fool, because I loved you (no no)

떠난 너 때문에 (너 때문에)

Because you left (because of you)

울지 않을래 (whoa oh whoa oh)

I won’t cry (whoa oh whoa oh)

더 멋진 남잘 만나 (남잘 만나)

Meet someone even better (meet a better man)

꼭 보여줄게 너보다 행복한 나 (행복한 나)

And I’ll make sure you see that I’m happier than you (happy me)

너 없이도 슬프지 않아 무너지지 않아

Without you, I’m not sad, I won’t break down

Boy you gotta be aware (lalala lalala)

Boy you gotta be aware (lalala lalala)

니가 줬던 반질 버리고

Let go of the shine you gave me

니가 썼던 편질 지우고

Erase the words you used to write

미련 없이 후회 없이

Without regret, without regret

잊어 줄 거야 너를 잊을래

I will forget, I want to forget you

너를 지울래

I’ll erase you

보여줄게 완전히 달라진 나

I’ll show you, I’ve completely changed

보여줄게 훨씬 더 예뻐진 나 (훨씬 더 예뻐진 나)

I’ll show you, I’ve become so much more beautiful (much more beautiful)

바보처럼 사랑 때문에 (oh my)

Like a fool, because I loved you (oh my)

떠난 너 때문에 울지 않을래 (whoa oh whoa oh)

Because you left, I won’t cry (whoa oh whoa oh)

더 멋진 남잘 만나 (더 멋진 남잘 만나)

Meet someone even cooler (a better man)

꼭 보여줄게 너보다 행복한 나 (no no no no no no)

And I’ll make sure you see that I’m happier than you (no no no no no no)

너 없이도 슬프지 않아 무너지지 않아

Without you, I’m not sad, I won’t break down

Boy you gotta be aware (lalala lalala)

Boy you gotta be aware (lalala lalala)
