The Maestro
Caro Emerald(카로 에메랄드) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Presence, elegance, an unmistakable dominance
Behind those steely eyes
Anything you know is coincidence
No one seems to know anything about his age, just his name
He’s always dressed for fame
Uh, the keyser is the maestro

Let it go, dream a bit
To wear a garment so delish
I’d be out of my mind
The slightest designs, the ultimate chemist
Even you ingénue
A gift he can’t buy from you
But if I had to pay I’d sure find a way to break the bank
I’d break the bank that day

Ladies, his designs make the words fall out of a pantomime
Colors, how they flow, go from avant-garde to beyond sublime
History and mystery, he stops the hands of time
The magic skin is mind
‘Cause the keyser is the maestro

Let it go, dream a bit
To wear a garment so delish
I’d be out of my mind
The slightest designs, the ultimate chemist
Even you ingénue
A gift he can’t buy from you
But if I had to pay I’d sure find a way to break the bank
I’d break the bank that day

Uh he is a maestro




He is a maestro
Maestro… maestro

I believe she actually says:

Anything you know is no incidence

Let a girl dream a bit

Give a new ingénue

(Just like the person above said)

The magic's in his mind

(And finally at the end she says "The Maestro" just like in the title)
