Lyrics by 윤종신
Composed by 윤종신, 이근호
Arranged by 나원주

Hangul
다 그랬어 다 뭐든지 늦었어
뭐든 빨리 깨닫지 못했던 나
너의 소중함들도 내게 온 그 기회들도
그땐 바보처럼

앞서가던 그 친구들의
뒷모습은 내게 거대한 그늘로
애써 따라가려던 버거웠던 그 몸부림 속에
나도 모르게 좁혀지던 그 거리는

난 아니라고 타고 난 게 없다고
가진 게 없는 나라고 매일 부르던 노래
너무 부족하다고 매일 메꾸려 했던
그 팔에 흐르던 땀은
증발하지 않아 차곡차곡
내 빈틈에 이야기들로 차 난 이제서야

두려웠어 뭐든 안 될 때
이것저것 핑계 만을 떠올릴 때
나를 바라보는 눈
남의 눈에 나를 맞추려던
길었던 날들 거쳐야 했던 그 날들

난 아니라고 타고 난 게 없다고
가진 게 없는 나라고 매일 부르던 노래
너무 부족하다고 매일 메꾸려 했던
그 팔에 흐르던 땀은
증발하지 않아 차곡차곡
내 빈틈에 이야기들로 차 난 이제서야

좁은 가슴들이 던졌던
그 원망들과 쉬웠던 외면
다행히도 늦지 않아서

포기하지 마 아프면 아픈 얘기
그 모든 순간순간 나만의 이야기야
멈추려 하지 마
분명 날아오를 기회가 와 좀 늦더라도
내 눈가의 주름 깊은 곳엔 뭐가 담길지
궁금하지 않니 답은 조금 미룬 채
지금은 조금 더 부딪혀봐

English Translation
It was always like that, whatever I did, I was too late
I could never realize things quickly
Your preciousness and the chances that came to me
I was such a fool then

My friends who were always ahead
Looked like great shadows
I tried so hard to keep up
And without knowing, I got closer

But it’s not me, there is nothing innate in me
I have nothing, which was what I sang every day
I lack so much so I tried so hard to make up for it
The sweat trickling down my arms
It wouldn’t evaporate
They filled up my cracks with stories and now I can finally say

I was scared, whenever things didn’t work out
Whenever I was busy making excuses
I tried fitting myself to other people’s eyes
I had to go through those long days

But it’s not me, there is nothing innate in me
I have nothing, which was what I sang every day
I lack so much so I tried so hard to make up for it
The sweat trickling down my arms
It wouldn’t evaporate
They filled up my cracks with stories and now I can finally say

There was resentment from those narrow hearts
There were easy rejections
Fortunately, it’s not too late

Don’t give up, though these stories hurt
Each moment is my own story
Don’t try to stop
The opportunity will definitely come, even if it’s late
Aren’t you curious, what will be contained
In the wrinkles around your eyes?
The answer can come later
So right now, just go for it
