[English]

In the deep darkness

settled on this street

we were lost in romance

this street carries the time that has passed

the place where I leaned against you and the moonlight

Do it

it's something I've let go of again

with every step, it follows me

the time we spent together

it's just

as I walk like this

one by one, they come to mind

the longing carried by the night air

spreads out

on this weary day

putting down my worries

the path we walked together, with the cold wind at our backs

between the shadows of the trees, I hung out

the scenes and stories we loved

Do it

it's something I've let go of again

with every step, it follows me

the time we spent together

it's just

as I walk like this

one by one, they come to mind

the longing carried by the night air

spreads out

this path I walk alone

I release you with a thin breath

this path is left in darkness, with no comfort

Do it

it's something I've let go of again

with every step, it follows me

the time we spent together

it's just

as I walk like this

one by one, they come to mind

the longing carried by the night air

spreads out

[Korean]

짙은 어둠이

내려앉은 이 거리에

낭만 속에 뒤놀던 우리가 있고

지난 시간이 배어 있는 이 거리는

너와 달빛을 베고 기대었던 곳

하라

다시 나 버린 일인데

걸음마다 따라오는

우리 함께한 시간이

그저

이렇게 걷다 보니

하나둘씩 떠올라

밤 공기에 실려온

그리움이 번지네

지친 하루에

고민들을 내려놓고

찬 바람을 등지고 함께 걷던 길

나무 그림자 사이마다 널어놓은

사랑했던 장면과 이야기들

하라

다시 나 버린 일인데

걸음마다 따라오는

우리 함께한 시간이

그저

이렇게 걷다 보니

하나둘씩 떠올라

밤 공기에 실려온

그리움이 번지네

혼자 걷는 이 길

가느다란 숨에 널 덜어내고

이 길 어둠에 남겨 위로 없네

하라

다시 나 버린 일인데

걸음마다 따라오는

우리 함께한 시간이

그저

이렇게 걷다 보니

하나둘씩 떠올라

밤 공기에 실려온

그리움이 번지네
