Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
언젠가부터 왠지 우울해 보여
이슬빛처럼 해맑게 웃어주던
너의 미소가 참 좋은데
Love it, love it baby
쉽지 않은 매일이지만
Bye bye 슬픈 시간은 bye bye bye
어젠 비밀로 남길게
약속해 우리
파란 하늘을 바라봐
구름 종이 위에 맘을 그려봐
둘만 아는 비밀이야
아무도 모르게 내게 말해봐

내게만 속삭일 비밀 이야기
약속해 우리
추억 속에 남길 비밀 이야기
너와의 비밀 비밀 비밀
숨 쉴 틈도 없이 몰아칠 때도 있어
그럴 땐 내게 기대 투정해도 돼
가끔은 서툰 아이 같으면 어때
어른이 되는 중인 거야
우린 우린 baby
버거웠던 하룰 테지만
Bye bye 아픈 기억은 bye bye bye
