So Long
에이핑크 (Apink) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

기억나니 그때 작고 어렸었던
너와 나 do you remember
항상 함께였지 우릴 샘내던 많은
친구들 do you remember
작은 손 꼭 잡고 날 지켜준
언제나 내게만 웃어준 너
Baby 그땐 몰랐을 거야
아마 모른척했을 거야
너무 어렸었잖아

어느새 넌 내게로 와 내 맘속으로 와
친구 아닌 남자로 내 옆에 있었지
그렇게 널 옆에 두고 내 맘 숨기고 이렇게
(숨어) (숨어)
친구라는 이름 뒤에 숨어

혹시 가끔 너도 그땔 생각하니
나처럼 do you remember
기분 좋은 바람 우릴 비추던 따뜻한
햇살 do you remember

너와 난 많은 게 닮았었고
넌 내게 소중한 친구였어
Baby 그렇게 믿고 있던
내게 다른 네가 온 거야
그런 네가 낯설어

어느새 넌 내게로 와 내 맘속으로 와
친구 아닌 남자로 내 옆에 있었지
그렇게 널 옆에 두고 내 맘 숨기고 이렇게
(숨어) (숨어)
친구라는 이름 뒤에 숨어

솔직히 나 겁이 났었어
너를 보면 떨리는 내 맘 익숙지 않아
사실 아무렇지 않은 네가 미웠었나 봐
이런 내 맘 너는 왜 모르니

Feel me, feel me, tell me, tell me
Love me, love me (이미 늦었겠지만)
Feel me, feel me, tell me, tell me
Love me, love me (이미 늦었겠지만)

어느새 넌 내게로 와 내 맘속으로 와
친구 아닌 남자로 내 옆에 있었지
그렇게 난 네 옆에서 내 맘 숨기고 조용히




(곁에) (곁에)
친구라는 이름으로 남아
