I Need You
김성규 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
내 곁을 지켜 줄거라 믿었던
모두 떠나고 난 뒤에 홀로 남겨진 난
외로움과 상처뿐인 내게 다가오는 너
날 안아주면 안돼요
손 잡아주면 안돼요
I need you now
I need you now
웃으며 보낼 수 있도록
도와줘요 당신이 난 필요해
기억의 조각들 그 중에
하나라도 한순간이라도
내게 힘이 되어 준 적이 있다면
날 안아주면 안돼요
손 잡아주면 안돼요
I need you now
I need you now
다 안녕이라 말하고
웃으며 보낼 수 있도록
도와줘요 당신이 난 필요해
날 안아주면 안돼요
손 잡아주면 안돼요
I need you
아무렇지 않게 TV를 보고
I need you
이른 저녁 시간에 맘 편히 잠들고
I need you
이런 나의 모습에
I need you
더 이상 놀라지 않게끔
Oh I need you
지겨울만큼 여행을 다니고
I need you
가끔 낯선 사람과 눈인사도 하고
I need you
그런 나의 모습이
I need you
더는 흔들리지 않게끔
I need you now
The song "I need you" by Kim Sung Kyu is a ballad that speaks of loneliness and the need for the companionship of someone important. The lyrics depict a moment in which the singer's world collapses, and after everyone leaves him, he is left alone with his only companions being his emptiness and scars. The song's message is a call for someone to come and hug him and offer support because he cannot stand the loneliness and pain anymore. The urgency in the singer's voice conveys the desperation of the singer's plea for help.
The song's chorus is a summation of the singer's feelings and needs. Kim repeatedly sings, "I need you now," adding further to the message that he needs someone to be by his side. The song's verses converse the theme of loneliness and emphasize the importance of someone's support through hard times. The song's emotional lyrics, along with Kim's sorrowful voice, are a testament to his exceptional skill in delivering such ballads.

언제나 꿈꿔왔던 순간이 무너지고
The moment I always dreamed of has collapsed
내 곁을 지켜 줄거라 믿었던
I believed that you would always be by my side
모두 떠나고 난 뒤에 홀로 남겨진 난
I was left alone after everyone left
외로움과 상처뿐인 내게 다가오는 너
You come to me who is only filled with loneliness and wounds
날 안아주면 안돼요
You must hold me
손 잡아주면 안돼요
You must hold my hand
I need you now
I need you now
다 안녕이라 말하고
Saying goodbye to everything
웃으며 보낼 수 있도록
So I can let it go with a smile
도와줘요 당신이 난 필요해
Please help me, I need you
기억의 조각들 그 중에
Among the fragments of memories
하나라도 한순간이라도
Even if there's only one fleeting moment
내게 힘이 되어 준 적이 있다면
If it has ever given me strength
아무렇지 않게 TV를 보고
Watching TV casually
이른 저녁 시간에 맘 편히 잠들고
Sleeping peacefully early in the evening
가끔 낯선 사람과 눈인사도 하고
Sometimes even greeting strangers
그런 나의 모습이
Such a sight of me
더는 흔들리지 않게끔
So I won't be shaken anymore
I need you now
I need you now

@Brettisen
I'll fight anyone (infinite members included) that dare to even insinuate that this album was a flop. no it didn't cater to the biggest mainstream kpop audience but it's a solid fucking album solely made up of amazing fucking songs and sunggyus god damn terrific voice and it will forever be one of my favourites.
@xtrudiex2536
AGREED
@karalindstrom7729
+Brettisen YES. I got so mad when my mom told me people considered this album a flop. I was so afraid that he wouldn't make another one (so, so , SO glad he did). Also, just watched GROW and it made me so mad that he felt that way about an Exceptional album.
@desiekaputriempra6244
lmaoo that (infinite members included)
@gemmalouise9080
Why in gods name does this song have hardly any views? doesn't anyone appreciate the passionate, amazing voice of Kim sunggyu?!?!?!!? Seriously this man is a genius!
@prinspirit
I think it's because this is from the LOEN's channel. On the Woollim's one there are more views!! ^^
@gemmalouise9080
Oh good phew! I thought people had actually gone insane. Kim sunggyu is gods gift <3
@prinspirit
Yeah, I agree!! He's not my ultimate for nothing!! XD
@gemmalouise9080
His voice belongs to the angels :3
@christaitano9134
