Shining through the cracks

The light beyond that darkness

It knocks on my empty heart and speaks to me

It urges me to take a step

What am I missing?

My days that I didn't even know the answer to

Wandering, searching until I'm out of breath

I don't know if that's this moment

So walking walking

Following that light

Again, oh again

I'm running

Beyond the darkness

Found my own

A universe filled with you

Crossing this night

Hear your voice

My new world unfolding

Oh oh

Oh oh

Million stories

Daydreams that will be rewritten

A newly filled day is full of you

Turn into my favorite song

When another dark night comes

I just need to look at you

Stop here, oh

So walking walking

Following that light

Again, oh again

I'm running

Beyond the darkness

Found my own

A universe filled with you

Crossing this night

Hear your voice

My new world unfolding

Now looking at the same place

I'm forever by your side

Shout louder

I'll call you

So this trembling never stops

Just like this

You and I

Hold my hand

Beyond the darkness

Found my own

A universe filled with you

Crossing this night

Hear your voice

My new world unfolding

Oh oh

Oh oh

Yeah

You're my Universe

Oh oh

Oh oh

틈 사이로 비친

저 어둠 너머의 빛이

텅 빈 내 맘을 두드리고 말을 걸어와

발을 옮겨보라고

What am I missing?

답조차 모르던 My days

숨이 가쁘도록 찾아 헤매던

그게 이 순간일지 모르지

So walking walking

저 빛을 따라서

또다시 oh 다시

I'm running

어둠 너머

Found my own

너로 가득 채워진 Universe

이 밤 건너

Hear your voice

펼쳐지는 My new world

Oh oh

Oh oh

Million stories

다시 쓰여 질 Daydreams

새로 채워진 하루는 너로 가득해

Turn into my favorite song

또 어두운 밤이 올 땐

너를 바라보면 돼

여기 멈춰 서 oh

So walking walking

저 빛을 따라서

또다시 oh 다시

I'm running

어둠 너머

Found my own

너로 가득 채워진 Universe

이 밤 건너

Hear your voice

펼쳐지는 My new world

같은 곳을 본 지금

네 곁에 난 Last forever

더 크게 외쳐

너를 부를게

이 떨림 멈추지 않게

이대로

너와 나

나의 손을 잡아줘

어둠 너머

Found my own

너로 가득 채워진 Universe

이 밤 건너

Hear your voice

펼쳐지는 My new world

Oh oh

Oh oh

Yeah

You're my Universe

Oh oh

Oh oh
