Mistake
CLC Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey boy 너와 나 Eh
오랜 친구 사이
매일 싸워 안 맞아 우리 사이
내 말이 Eh eh eh oh

하필 그날따라 남자로 보였나 봐
글쎄 그만 입을 맞춰 버린 거야
Oops I did eh eh eh oh

사실 가끔씩은
널 보면 설레던 내 맘을
모른 척했는데 이제
널 어떡해 Oh oh
어떻게 됐었나 봐

Oh my my mistake
너랑 나랑 왜
Oh no 이건 안 돼
Oh oh oh oh oh oh no

Oh my my mistake
맘이 내 맘이 왜
Oh no 절대 안 돼
Oh oh oh oh oh oh no

절대 인정 안 해
맞아 그건 실수
근데 자꾸 생각이 나
네 그 입술
기억하기 싫어
너무 길고 길었던
둘 사이의 어색한 침묵

그래 너도 알지
내가 느낀 바와 같이
친구 이상이 되고
싶다는 건 맞지
이리 와 내게 말해봐
기회 줄 때 더 잘해봐

언제부터일까
자꾸만 떨리는 내 맘을
아닌 척했는데 이제
나 어떡해 Oh
어떻게 좀 됐나 봐

Oh my my mistake
너랑 나랑 왜
Oh no 이건 안 돼
Oh oh oh oh oh oh no

Oh my my mistake
맘이 내 맘이 왜
Oh no 절대 안 돼
Oh oh oh oh oh oh no

Oh 어쩌면 예전부터
이렇게 될 줄 알았었나 봐
Oh oh oh oh oh oh no
너를 언제까지나 곁에 두고 싶은 걸
혹시 떠나버릴 사랑 따윈 난 싫어 No

Oh my my mistake
Oh my my mistake

Oh 택시는 하필 왜 그리 없던지
빨개졌던 얼굴 이불킥 Ah
전화 좀 그만해 안 받아
눈치도 없네 이 남자

Oh my my mistake
너랑 나랑 왜
Oh no 이건 안 돼
oh oh oh oh oh oh no

Oh my my mistake
맘이 내 맘이 왜




Oh no 절대 안 돼
Oh oh oh oh oh oh no

Overall Meaning

The song "Mistake" by CLC tells the story of two longtime friends who have been fighting every day and are now in an awkward situation after one mistakenly kissed the other. The singer realizes, after the kiss, that she has had feelings for her male friend for some time, but had never confessed them. She tries to hide her emotions, but it becomes increasingly difficult, especially as she spends more time with him. The chorus "Oh my my mistake, 너랑 나랑 왜, Oh no 이건 안 돼" translates to "Oh my my mistake, why you and me, oh no this can't happen."


The song's message is relatable to those who have struggled with unrequited feelings for a friend and the fear of potentially ruining the friendship by expressing them. The music video portrays a cute and lighthearted story of the two friends, but it also hints at the deeper emotions and struggles of the singer. The lyrics use both Korean and English, adding to the international appeal of the song.
