Stay Tonight
CHUNG HA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel you 빛과 어둠 그 사이
넌 나의 곁으로 (all the time)
Warning warning 왜 이리 서투니
널 내게 맡겨봐 봐 ah

시간의 흐름조차 까맣게
지워버린 밤 지워버린 밤 nana
감았던 두 눈마저 하얗게
깊어지는 밤

다가와 내게 이 순간
Stay tonight
Stay tonight, stay
By my side
Stay tonight
Stay tonight, stay

이 밤 향기에 또 취하고
멈추지 않아도 돼 sta-a-a-ay
더는 움직일 수 없도록
깊숙이 스며들어
Stay with me, ooh

Tonight, stay tonight
Tell me what you wanna do
Run away or stay toni-ah-tonight
Toni-ah-tonight
Toni-ah-tonight
Tell me what you wanna do
Run away or stay tonight

난 피어나는 불꽃처럼 ah
널 향해 또 번져가

다가와 내게 이 순간
Stay tonight
Stay tonight, stay
By my side
Stay tonight
Stay tonight, stay

이 밤 향기에 또 취하고
멈추지 않아도 돼 sta-a-a-ay
더는 움직일 수 없도록
깊숙이 스며들어
Stay with me, ooh

Tonight, stay tonight
Tell me what you wanna do
Run away or stay toni-ah-tonight
Toni-ah-tonight
Toni-ah-tonight
Tell me what you wanna do
Run away or stay tonight

Stay by my side
Tell me that you will stay here tonight
Tell me that you will

Stay with me, ooh

Tonight, stay tonight (stay tonight)
Tell me what you wanna do
Run away or stay toni-ah-tonight
Toni-ah-tonight
Toni-ah-tonight




Tell me what you wanna do
Run away or stay tonight

FYI:
-For that dance track Chungha hired a LGBTQ male dance group, called comingout.kr (ig)
-There are 6 male dancers and 10 female dancers (Names on the comments).
-Rian Choi is the main choreographer for stay tonight and She is in the Mv.
-Ran the other choreographer, She is known as the mother of voguing and She is in the Mv too.
-Stay Tonight is just a pre-release to promote Chungha's first full album.
- 👆 that is why she isn't promoting st on music shows.
- Play wasn't supposed to be on music shows either but it was a last minute decision to have one week of promotions.

what amazes me so much is that chungha’s company isn’t even in the big 3 yet they are giving her a high budget pre-release, a SECOND pre-release, a FULL ALBUM, AND a comeback. they really are giving chungha the best she deserves. other company’s need to take notes and treat their idols the way MNH treats chungha.

@JetroedelMundo

@@aizen3347 she wasn't crying about not getting tired, she cried because of the overwhelming support and love she recieved during her past comebacks

“Bicycle” is great but “Stay Tonight” is expensive af, iconic choreo, celebration of feminism and a god tier song.

@ppjskh

“Bicycle” is definitely more general public friendly, I personally love all her pre-releases though! Play is also amazing. ✨

@brandyjohnson738

@@ppjskh no it's doing well in Korea it's not a Kpop type of song typically. It would do more well in the US

@selenagrande8525

Her best song👑💕
