[English]

It was you from the very beginning

The one person coming into my life

Even with just one touch

My eyes speak for me

Passing by like the wind

I wish we weren't meant to be

I couldn’t speak first, like a fool

I just couldn’t do it

You Are My Everything

Caught in a fate pouring down like stars

Meeting someone like you

Inside my heart that has stopped

My only love

You Are My Everything

...

Blooming in the fog

Your face painted white as snow

In an instant, my heart

Seemed to stop as it approached

You Are My Everything

Caught in a fate pouring down like stars

Meeting someone like you

Inside my heart that has stopped

My only love

You Are My Everything

The love I couldn't even start to say

Now I can say it

It's a miracle that no one can have

You Are My Everything

My burning love is yours

Even as the seasons change, I’m here

Inside my heart that has stopped

My only love

You Are My Everything

...

[Korean]

처음부터 그대였죠

나에게 다가올 한 사람

단 한 번의 스침에도

내 눈빛이 말을 하죠

바람처럼 스쳐가는

인연이 아니길 바래요

바보처럼 먼저 말하지 못했죠

할 수가 없었죠

You Are My Everything

별처럼 쏟아지는 운명에

그대라는 사람을 만나고

멈춰버린 내 가슴속에

단 하나의 사랑

You Are My Everything

안갯속에 피어나는

하얗게 물들은 그대 모습

한순간에 내게 심장이

멈출 듯 다가와 버렸죠

You Are My Everything

별처럼 쏟아지는 운명에

그대라는 사람을 만나고

멈춰버린 내 가슴속에

단 하나의 사랑

You Are My Everything

시작도 못 했던 나의 사랑을

이제는 말할 수 있죠

누구도 가질 수 없는 기적인데

You Are My Everything

뜨거운 내 사랑은 그댄 걸

계절이 변해도 난 이곳에

멈춰버린 내 가슴속에

단 하나의 사랑

You Are My Everything
