Lyrics & Translation

[Korean]

[English]

너 땜에 그래

It's because of you

애꿎은 전화기만 미워지잖아

I start to hate this innocent phone

잘해주지나 말던가?

Why don't you treat me well?

남 주긴 아깝지만 갖긴 싫은지?

It seems like you’re hesitant to give, even though you want to keep

굳이 이해는 안 할게

I won't try to understand anymore

날 향한 미소가 야속해

Your smile directed at me feels like a curse

자꾸 그렇게 쳐다 보지 마

Don't look at me like that again

오늘은 애써 모른 척 못하겠어

Today, I can't ignore it anymore

이젠 솔직히 말해줘

Just be honest with me now

Just tell me what you waiting for

Just tell me what you're waiting for

Baby, I've been waiting for you all this time

Baby, I've been waiting for you all this time

I'm faded 매일 밤 I'm drunk and wasted

I'm fading, every night I'm drunk and wasted

Tell me what you waiting for

Tell me what you're waiting for

Baby, you already know

Baby, you already know

Just how I feel about ya

Exactly how I feel about you

But why you got me doubtin' ya?

But why do you make me doubt you?

Tell me who you waiting for

Tell me, who are you waiting for?

What you waiting for 내가 아니라면?

What are you waiting for if not me?

슬퍼지잖아 miss you right

It makes me sad, I miss you right now

앞에 있는데 왜 눈이 돌아가?

You're right in front, so why do your eyes wander?

생각해봐, 대답해봐

Think about it, answer me

어쩔 거야 날?

What are you going to do about me?

너 땜에 지센 밤이 몇 개?

Because I’ve spent too many nights because of you

왜 모른척해? Tell me, baby, why?

Why do you ignore me? Tell me, baby, why?

오늘은 애써 밝은 척 못하겠어

Today, I can't pretend to be happy anymore

이젠 솔직히 말해줘

Just be honest with me now

Just tell me what you waiting for

Just tell me what you're waiting for

Baby, I've been waiting for you all this time

Baby, I’ve been waiting for you all this time

I'm faded 매일 밤 I'm drunk and wasted

I'm faded, every night I'm drunk and wasted

Tell me what you waiting for

Tell me what you're waiting for

Baby, you already know

Baby, you already know

Just how I feel about ya

Just how I feel about you

But why you got me doubtin' ya?

But why do you have me doubting you?

Tell me who you waiting for

Tell me, who are you waiting for?

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I'm waiting for you

I'm waiting for you

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

나 홀로 너만을 위해 춤을 추지만, too far

I dance alone for you, but it’s too far

끝을 모를 만큼 원해, how badly I need you (Ah)

I want you so badly, I need you more than words can say (Ah)

(Ring the alarm)

(Ring the alarm)

...

...

Oh my, my, I'm falling over you

Oh my, my, I’m falling over you

So tell me, what you gonna do?

So tell me, what are you gonna do?

You know I'm all you got to lose

You know I’m all you’ve got to lose

Oh my, my, I'm falling over you

Oh my, my, I’m falling over you

So you do what you gotta do

So do what you gotta do

I know I'm all you got to lose

I know I’m all you’ve got to lose
