Why
태연 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh yeah yeah
Oh 언젠가는 내 두 발이 Oh 닿는 대로
이끌리는 시선을 뺏겨버린 대로
가볍게 걸어갈 낯선 곳을 그리다
또 결국엔 허전한 긴 한숨에 멈춰
Why, why, 돌아서 또 넌
Why, why, 꿈만 가득해

지금 떠난다면 Good, good, good, yeah
만나게 될 모든 건 Great, great, yeah



가벼워진 맘이 Work, work, baby
이미 이미 눈 앞에 아른아른대는데
망설여 Why

나침반 위 돌아가던 바늘이
멈춘 곳에 가득 핀
이름 모를 꽃잎이
널 위해 끌어당긴 빛이 담긴 풍경 속에
어서 뛰어들어 나보다 자유롭게 더

Why, why, why, 괜히 미뤄 왔던 날
많았던 걱정이 모두 다 사라진
Tonight, yeah

바람 불어오면 Good, good, good, yeah
펼쳐지는 모든 건 Great, great, yeah
달라지는 맘이 Work, work, baby
이미 이미 눈 앞에 아른아른대는데

지금 떠난다면 Good, good, Good, yeah
만나게 될 모든 건 Great, great, yeah
가벼워진 맘이 Work, work, baby
이미 이미 눈 앞에 아른아른대는데
망설여 Why

쫓아가기도 벅차 숨이 찬
세상이 전부는 아냐
하루 종일 걸어도 똑같은
풍경은 절대 보이지 않아
하얀 종이에 적어 본 Why
잉크처럼 번지는 맘
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling to you

바람 불어오면 Good, good, good, yeah
펼쳐지는 모든 건 Great, great, yeah
달라지는 맘이 Work, work, baby
이미 이미 눈 앞에 아른아른대는데

지금 떠난다면 Good, good, good, yeah
만나게 될 모든 건 Great, great, yeah
가벼워진 맘이 Work, work, baby
이미 이미 눈 앞에 아른아른대는데
망설여 Why

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Taeyeon's song "Why" suggest a sense of hesitation and uncertainty towards embarking on a new journey. The opening lines describe a desire to explore unfamiliar places, but ultimately feeling empty and unsure. The chorus repeatedly asks the question "why" as the singer wrestles with their doubts and fears. However, the lyrics also convey a sense of hope and positivity as the singer acknowledges that if they take the leap of faith and commit to their journey, there is great potential for greatness and positive change.


The song also uses metaphors, such as the compass needle pointing towards a destination and the wind blowing in a direction towards progress. These metaphors suggest that the singer is seeking guidance and a sign to help them make a decision. The lyrics also mention a white piece of paper where the singer writes down their "why," which can be interpreted as their motivation or reason for wanting to embark on this new journey.


Overall, the lyrics to "Why" capture the common human struggle of wanting to take a risk but being held back by fear and doubt. Taeyeon's emotive vocals and the catchy melody make the song an anthem for those who are seeking inspiration and courage to pursue their dreams.

Oh yeah yeah

Oh 언젠가는 내 두 발이 Oh 닿는 대로
One day, wherever my two feet take me


이끌리는 시선을 뺏겨버린 대로
As if taking away the attraction of the eyes that were pulled towards me


가볍게 걸어갈 낯선 곳을 그리다
Walking lightly towards an unfamiliar place


또 결국엔 허전한 긴 한숨에 멈춰
But eventually stopping with a long, empty sigh


Why, why, 돌아서 또 넌
Why, why, do you turn away again?


Why, why, 꿈만 가득해
Why, why, are your dreams fulfilling you instead?

나침반 위 돌아가던 바늘이
The needle that was spinning on the compass


멈춘 곳에 가득 핀
Is now full of blooming


이름 모를 꽃잎이
Nameless flower petals


널 위해 끌어당긴 빛이 담긴 풍경 속에
In a scenery filled with light that was drawn for you


어서 뛰어들어 나보다 자유롭게 더
Hurry up and jump in, more freely than me

Why, why, why did I push back that day for no reason?

The scenery never appears


하얀 종이에 적어 본 Why
Writing 'why' on a white piece of paper

A heart that spreads like ink


I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling to you
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling to you


망설여 Why
Why hesitate?
