[English]

Ooh, ooh-woah, ooh-ooh-oh

Like a habit, I lie in bed at sunset

When I look at the clock, it points to 05:04

Now our song keeps playin' on the radio

I can't help but smile, just like I was sixteen

The memory feels exactly the same every day

I'm always gonna choose you

They say time goes

But our love's here

I call out to you, the one I've dreamed of for so long

So, if I could do this love all over

I'll keep our time deeper in my heart

Rewind to all my days with you

And hold you tight

If I, even if we drift apart

I'll always be there for you

Rewind and I'll be running back, yeah

I'll be running back, yeah

The ending, which I was too young to understand

Will someday become dreams that serve as a new beginning

Even if I walk through a different night

When morning comes, I'll always be by your side

This time, we've become a little more grown up

This time, we appear in a different way

Crossing through each other's time to talk

I'm always gonna choose you

They say time goes

But our love's here

In this moment, I'll always call out to you again

So, if I could do this love all over

I'll keep our time deeper in my heart

Rewind to all my days with you

And hold you tight

If I, even if we drift apart

I'll always be there for you

Rewind and I'll be running back, yeah

I'll be running back, yeah

If I could do this love all over

Our time, I'll keep it deeper in my heart

Rewind to all my days with you

Just like it was back then (just like it was)

If I could do this love all over (oh, yeah)

Our time, I'll keep it deeper in my heart

Rewind to all my days with you (with you)

And hold you tight

If I, even if we drift apart

I'll always be there for you

Rewind, and I'll be running back, yeah

I'll be running back, yeah

[Korean]

Ooh, ooh-woah, ooh-ooh-oh

습관처럼, 해질녘에 침대에 누워

시계를 보면 05:04을 가리켜

Now our song keeps playin' on the radio

웃음이 나와, 열여섯처럼

그때 기억 느낌 그대로야 매일

I'm always gonna choose you

They say time goes

But our love's here

오랫동안 꿈꿔온 널 다시 불러

So, if I could do this love all over

Our time 더 마음에 남길게

Rewind to all my days with you

너를 꽉 안아

If I, 멀어진다 해도

I'll always be there for you

Rewind and I'll be running back, yeah

I'll be running back, yeah

어려서 몰랐었던 끝은

언젠가 시작이 될 꿈들

다른 밤을 걸어도

아침이 오면 언제나 네 곁에

This time, 우린 좀 더 어른이 된

This time, 우린 다른 모습으로

서로의 시간을 건너 얘기해

I'm always gonna choose you

They say time goes

But our love's here

이 시간엔 언제나 널 다시 불러

So, if I could do this love all over

Our time 더 마음에 남길게

Rewind to all my days with you

너를 꽉 안아

If I, 멀어진다 해도

I'll always be there for you

Rewind and I'll be running back, yeah

I'll be running back, yeah

If I could do this love all over

Our time, 더 마음에 남길게

Rewind to all my days with you

그때 그대로 (그대로)

If I could do this love all over (oh, yeah)

Our time 더 마음에 남길게

Rewind to all my days with you (with you)

너를 꽉 안아

If I, 멀어진다 해도

I'll always be there for you

Rewind, and I'll be running back, yeah

I'll be running back, yeah
