[English]

I saw him while walking down the street, Euiyeon.

...

My hunch, which I half-expected,

...

was right. He took off the ring you gave him and, on one hand,

...

he was just holding someone's arm.

...

I'll just say this much.

...

But rather, you got angry at me, saying he,

...

would never do that.

...

I'm reading your face, maybe I saw it wrong.

...

Yeah, I'll lie for you.

...

Ugh, I hate that you don't know how I feel. This

...

waiting

...

I hate it, my hands now

...

are for you. When you're sad, I feel like I'm going to die.

...

That's how it feels.

...

Baby, what am I lacking compared to that jerk?

...

What is it? Why can't I have you?

...

That jerk doesn't even love you.

...

How long are you going to be a fool

...

and put up with this?

...

[Music]

...

Every

...

time come

...

close to you

...

[Music]

...

Look, it resembles your smiling face, Yonani's

...

is dazzling.

...

Way, my day, you're probably a romantic

...

drama, I'm going to

...

nod my head, I can't hold it in

...

I can't help but call out your name.

...

Shyly turn my head.

...

I like you so much like this,

...

but it's hard to even start a conversation.

의연이 길을 걷다 그남 잘 봤어

혹시나 했던 내감이

맞았어 네가 준 반지를 빼고 한쪽엔

팔장을 끼고 그냥

여기까지만 말할게

근데 오히려 너는 내게 화를 내 그는

절대로 그럴 리가

없대 나는이 눈치 살피고 내가 잘못

본 거라고 그래 널 위해 거짓말할게

에이 날 몰라주는 네가 미워.이

기다림이

싫어손 이제

너으라고 네가 슬퍼할 때면 나는 죽을

것만 같다고

베이베 그 새끼보다 내가 못한게

뭐야 도대체 왜 나는 가을 수 없는

거야 그 새낀 너를 사랑하는게

아니야 언제까지 바보같이

지울만 있을 거야

[음악]

every

time come

close to you를

[음악]

을 봐네 웃는 모습을 닮아 요나니는

눈부신걸

웨이 내 하루 넌 아마 로맨틱한

히드라마 나를 고게

하죠노 참들

못하겠는데 이름을 불러본데 난

수주분도 고개 돌리고

이렇게 좋아하는데

좀처럼 걸음말 될 수가 없어

[음악]

like g

pray every time

랄랄

[음악]

랄랄랄 랄

la

la yeah butterfly

감사합니다 입니다
