Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

저 멀리 들려오는
희미한 벨 소리 (눈을 떠봐)
벌써 이렇게 시간이
우리 첫 데이트
Oh my love, oh my God
두 눈은 아직도 감기고
잠깐 시계 바늘 멈출 순 없을까
망설이지마 일어나 yeah!

Wake up! Wake up!
서둘러 make up!
사랑스럽게 너에게 달려갈게
열어줄 듯 말듯이 떨리는
내 맘을 햇살보다 따스히
You (you) 안아줘 (yeah)
내 맘을 녹여줘
Wake up oh my love!
Wake up oh my love!

달콤히 들려오는 날
부르는 소리 (네 목소리)
어쩜 이렇게 시간이 빠르게 가는지
Oh my love, oh my God
살며시 어깨에 기댈까
살짝 눈치 보며 선을 넘어볼까
비밀스럽게 다가가 yeah!

Wake up! Wake up!
서둘러 make up!
사랑스럽게 너에게 달려갈게
열어줄 듯 말듯이 떨리는 내 맘을 (내 맘을)
햇살보다 따스히 you (you)
안아줘 (yeah)
내 맘을 녹여줘
You're my love, yeah!

창피하게 나 자꾸만 나
널 보면 표정관리가 안 돼 (안 돼, 안 돼)

거울 앞에 예쁘게
네가 좋아해 놓고선
내 마음 숨기며 하는 말
너만 보면 웃음이 나와

Wake up! Wake up!
서둘러 make up!
숨기지 않고 너에게 달려갈게
정말 못 견딜 만큼 설레는 내 맘을 (내 맘을)
손 내밀어 잡아줘
You (you) 두 볼에 (yeah)
살며시 입 맞춰
내 맘을 녹여줘 love

Wake up oh my love!

Wake up oh my love!
Wake up oh my love!

The lyrics of "Wake Up" by 에이프릴 tell the story of a person who is eagerly waiting for their loved one to wake up and start a new day together. The song begins with the sound of a faint bell in the distance, symbolizing the start of the day. The singer reflects on how quickly time has passed since their first date, expressing their love and excitement to be with their partner. They question if there is a way to pause time, wanting to make the most of their precious moments together. The chorus urges the loved one to wake up and get ready quickly, promising to run towards them with love and affection. The singer's heart beats faster, feeling nervous and excited, as they express their desire to have their love melt the loved one's heart.
