Call Me Baby
Exo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Call me baby) 이 거리는 완전 난리야
(Call me baby) 사람들 사이는 남이야 (ha-ha)
(Call me baby)함께하는 매 순간이
Like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (what up?)

Hey, girl 영원 같던 찰나 (운명 같은 순간)
나를 한 순간 뚫고가 (번개처럼 이 세계를)
넌 내 이름 불러주며 나에게로 다가와 ah

놀라워 섬광처럼 가득 차
너를 마주한 순간 oh, my
편하게 여기 앉아, 이제 내 얘기를 들어봐

Oh, I don't care 나 멀리멀리 돌아간대도
이렇게 너의 곁에 단 한 남자가 되어줄 테니

메마른 내 입술에 너
스며들어와 나를 깨워
The time's wasting, girl
So don't wait, don't wait too long

빛나는 것들은 많아 (많아)
그 안에 진짜를 봐봐 (봐봐)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby (oh)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby
(You know my name girl)
널 향해 커져간 마음아 (마음아)
너 말곤 그 문을 닫아 (you know I'm here, girl)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby (ha-ha)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby (몇 번이라도 call me, girl)

나를 나로 존재하게 해
내 세상은 오직 you're the one
You're the one ('cause you're the one I want)

빛나는 것들은 많아 (많아)
그 안에 진짜를 봐봐 (you know my name, girl)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby
Call me baby, bae, call me baby (몇 번이라도 call me girl)

Baby girl 욕심들 속에 날 선
그 어떤 말도 넘어설 (call me baby)
그런 믿음을 보여준 너

모두 변해 날 떠나간대도
너는 나만의 lady (oh)
내 손을 잡아주는 그거면 돼

빛나는 것들은 많아 (많아)
그 안에 진짜를 봐봐 (봐봐)
Call me baby, call me baby
Call me baby, call me baby (you know my name girl)
널 향해 커져간 마음아 (마음아)
너 말곤 그 문을 닫아 (You know I'm here girl)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby
Call me baby, bae, call me baby

어둔 미로 속에 갇혔던 oh 나 (그 어둠 속에서)
날 깨워준 네 목소리 들려와
날 다시 태어나게 해

E-X-O listen! yeah (Baby, baby)

Say my name (louder)
혼란스러운 공간 속 날
이끌어줄 빛이 되고 놓치지
않아준 너라면 baby (what up)
널 안고 변치 않을게 널 안고
나를 떠나버린 사람들과 마주해
Never don't mind about a thing
내 가슴속 그 거대한 공백에 널 더해

흔들리는 세상 속에서 (ooh-babe)
빛이 돼준 오직 한 사람 (oh)
바로 너 ('cause you're the one I want)

빛나는 것들은 많아 (많아)
그 안에 진짜를 봐봐 (봐봐)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby
Call me baby, bae, call me baby
(I'll be your baby yeah, hoo!)

나를 나로 존재하게 해 (you know I'm here, girl)
내 세상은 오직 you're the one (you're the one that I want)
You're the one ('cause you're the one I want)

빛나는 것들은 많아 (많아)
그 안에 진짜를 봐봐 (봐봐)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby (oh-oh-oh)
Call me baby, bae, call me baby (몇 번이라도 call me, girl)

Definitely an OG kpop song;

The riff runs (D.O’s “Baby Girl”)
The Chorus (their vocals)
That “baby baby” part always gets me
The duet between Baekhyun, D.O and Chen
The rap? Beautiful

Did anyone notice the “I love it, I love it, I love it” harmony?
