혼잣말

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
내 사랑은 아직 끝나지 않았나봐 사랑했어 그리고 사랑해
기억하고 싶은 모든 건 잊어, 잊고 싶은 건 다 기억나
눈앞에 있는 건 보이지 않아, 없는 너만 떠올라
나의 손을 잡아주던 아이처럼 웃던 니가 생각나
어딜 봐도 니가 있고 어디에도 없는 오늘 하루도 넌가봐
I can do better Time does not matter 너만 온다면 Baby Baby
You make me wanna Be someone better 나를 한번 더 돌아봐
기억하고 싶은 모든건 잊어, 잊고 싶은 건 다 기억나
눈앞에 있는 건 보이지 않아, 없는 너만 떠올라
잊을 수 있어 널 모두 잊을 수 있어 혼잣말을 해
잊을 수 없어 널 절대 잊을 수 없어 니가 내게 속삭여
흔한 사랑일거라고 그게 별거냐고 생각했던 나
뛰던 가슴 멈춰지고 시간이 멈추는 내겐 사랑이 단 가봐
I can do better Time does not matter 사랑했잖아 Baby Baby
You make me wanna Be someone better 나도 잊을순 없잖아
기억하고 싶은 모든건 잊어, 잊고 싶은 건 다 기억나
눈앞에 있는 건 보이지 않아 없는 너만 떠올라
내가 아니라면 맘 줄 수 없게 내가 더욱 그립게
많이 잘해줄걸 네 곁에 있어줄걸 순간 순간이 다 후회돼
Yo! Taking a days 나 매일 all day 네 생각에 밤을 지새우네
잊을 수 있어 나도 미치지만 어쩌겠어 다짐해 봐도 널 원했어
이제 기억도 추억일 뿐 잠시 너에게 머문 시간은
얼마 되지 않아 잊을 수 있을 거야 Last memory that I can do
잊을 수 있어 널 모두 잊을 수 있어 혼잣말을 해
잊을 수 없어 널 절대 잊을 수 없어 니가 내게 속삭여
오늘도 잘 지내 너무 보고 싶어 나 혼잣말을해
너는 모르게 널 만날 약속을 하고 잘자 하고 돌아서
The lyrics to Lee Jun Ki's song "혼잣말" (Soliloquy) express the lingering emotions of a person who is still deeply in love with someone who has left.

The lyrics suggest that although the singer has memories they wish to forget, they cannot erase the thoughts of the love they once felt and still feel for this person. The mention of a child who once held the singer's hand and made them smile is likely a metaphor for the person they were once in love with, and how that person brought joy into their life.
The song's chorus highlights the singer's desire to improve themselves and become better for the person they love. They express their longing for this person and reminisce about the moments they shared together. The lyrics are a mix of hopeful and reflective sentiments, with the singer acknowledging that they can move on from their memories, but not from the person themselves.

I, for one, LOVE his singing... He has a wonderful voice. BTW. If you don't like his singing why are you here listening to it ??????

I agree that he should stick to acting, he's a better actor. But his songs are still listenable, it's not horrible. There are worse singers out there that make ears bleeding. If LJK sucks at singing, what would those be then? LJK is just okay... and I think it isn't a bad idea multitasking. Acting and singing at the same time makes you get to know someone better in different ways, in my opinion. :)

Can somebody tell him that he's too hot and too talented of an actor to waste his time like that. So with all that entourage, not one of them is honest enough to tell him that he sucks at singing? He should fire all of them, especially his manager. Can't people stick to one thing nowdays, why do they multitask if they don't know how?
FunnyPanda
How can I know if I like it or not if I don't listen to it first? Do you make sense of what you write before you write it, or do you just go crazy on your keyboard? Beside I'm here as a fan. I like him as actor but not as a singer. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, so go away troll.
