Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
내 맘에 불을 지른 that girl
I say brr!
난 정말 어쩌자고 널 불러 앉혀놓고
어쩌자고 커피를 시켜놓고 (Girl, girl)
이렇게 얼어붙어 자꾸만 횡설수설
어지러워 자꾸만 안절부절 (Girl, girl)
나 오늘은 꼭 말을 하리
정말 말을 하려는데 (Girl, girl)
그만 좀 쳐다볼래 네 미소에
그게 자꾸 잘 안되네 (Girl)
한숨 한번 내쉬고 크게 oh, oh
눈 딱 감고 한번 내뱉어 그게 ooh, ooh
Are you ready or not? You ready or not?
(안될 겉 같아 또 굳게 입술을 닫는다)
Are you ready or not? You ready or not?
(미칠 겉 같아 오늘도 내 말을 막는다)
어쩌라고 넌 그리 예뻐 놓고
어쩌라고 내 맘 다 훔쳐놓고 (Girl, girl)
목소린 작아지고 자꾸만 자신 없어
돌아서면 기회는 다신 없어 (Girl, girl)
나 솔직히 지금껏 널 stop! (Uh)
미치겠네 (Girl, girl)
세상에 둘도 없는 먼저리 바보
같아 답답해 (Girl)
한숨 한번 내쉬고 크게 oh, oh
눈 딱 감고 한번 내뱉어 그게 ooh, ooh
Are you ready or not? You ready or not?
(안될 겉 같아 또 굳게 입술을 닫는다)
Are you ready or not? You ready or not?
(미칠 겉 같아 오늘도 내 말을 막는다)
Are you ready or not? Ready or not?
Girl, I wanna speak my mind
아직 모자라도 그래도 난 널 사랑하고 싶은데
Are you ready or not? Ready or not?
(잘될 것 같아 힘주어 네 손을 잡는다)
Are you ready or not? Ready or not?
(꿈인 것 같아 날 보며 그녀가 웃는다)
Are you ready or not? Ready or not?
(얼마나 지금을 많이 기다렸는지)
Are you ready or not? Ready or not?
('Cause you’re my only girl)
