백현 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
가둬 날 깊숙이 더욱 깊숙이
Wow 또 가만히 밀려와 잔잔한 내 맘을
어질러 익숙히 너무 익숙해 wow
잡힐 듯 아련한 기억 속에
You're not there
여전히 네 잔상이 남아 내겐
Oh I lost you one more time
Why but my love
나를 미치게 하잖아
너를 미치게 원하고 원해도 넌
You ghost
너를 미치게 원하고 원해도 넌
You ghost you ghost
밤새 미치게 원하고 애원해도
You ghost
아무 말 없이 왔다가 가버린 너
You ghost, you ghost
You go, you ghost, you ghost
이러다 괜찮아질 거야
센 척 안 해 아프다 말겠지
Can't take no more
막을 수도 없이
타오르는 불길 같던 맘이 꺼졌어
꺼졌어 no
우리가 함께한 기억 속에
You're not there
외롭게 너를 찾아 헤매이네
Not fair
Oh I lost you one more time
Why but my love
나를 미치게 하잖아
너를 미치게 원하고 원해도 넌
You ghost
너를 미치게 원하고 원해도 넌
You ghost, you ghost
밤새 미치게 원하고 애원해도 (you ghost)
You ghost
아무 말 없이 왔다가 가버린 너
You ghost, you ghost
You go, you ghost, you ghost
오늘 깰 수 없는 꿈이라면 (꿈이라면) ooh
난 더이상 붙잡지 않으려 해 이젠 널
긴 불면의 밤에서 벗어나게 oh bae
그땐 널 그땐 널
매일 미치게 원하고 원해도 넌
You ghost
매일 미치게 원하고 원해도 넌 (미치게 원하고 원해도 넌)
You ghost, you ghost
밤새 미치게 원하고 애원해도 (you ghost)
You ghost
아무 흔적도 없이 또 사라진 너
You ghost you ghost
Every time every time every time
You go
You ghost, you ghost, you ghost, you ghost
You ghost, you ghost
Oh you, oh you, you ghost
You ghost, you ghost
The lyrics to Baekhyun's song "Ghost" delve into the emotions of longing and loss. The song talks about being haunted by the presence of someone who has left, referring to them as a ghost. The lyrics describe the feeling of being trapped in a dream, where the memories of this person linger and torment the singer. They express frustration and heartache over not being able to let go or move on from this person who has disappeared without a trace.
The repetition of the phrase "You ghost" emphasizes the impact this person has had on the singer's life. Despite wanting and craving this person, they remain elusive like a ghost. The lyrics suggest that the singer's love for this person drives them to madness, as they continuously search for something that has already slipped away. The song explores the conflicting emotions of wanting to let go and move on, yet being unable to forget and still longing for their presence.
Overall, "Ghost" portrays the anguish and turmoil that can come from clinging to the memory of someone who is no longer there, and the struggle to find closure and peace.
