Nun ddeoboni ijeun jul aratdeon gose

The song "Footsteps" by Emerald Castle talks about the pain of walking away from someone you love because the relationship is not working out. The lyrics describe the feeling of leaving someone behind and wanting to be free from the pain, but also feeling guilty for causing them hurt. The opening verse talks about the sound of footsteps as the singer leaves, and the memories of crying in the same spot. The singer acknowledges that they still have feelings for the other person, but they want to be free from the pain and just move on. The chorus repeats the theme of the pain caused both to the singer and the other person, and the impossibility of going back to the way things were. The bridge talks about how the singer's feelings for the other person have not disappeared, but they have to keep moving forward and cannot stay stuck in the past.
Overall, the song paints a vivid picture of the pain of leaving someone behind, and of recognizing the need to move on while still struggling with the emotions and memories that bind you to the past.

TRANSLATION
That day when the sun set,
My footsteps took me,
Opening my eyes to a place i thought i had forgotten
Whether I still have some hatred towards you left
I want to be free now
I believed time would solve everything
Was that in itself a foolish belief?
Now, I want to just go with the flow of things
It doesn't matter to you anymore
**
From the start a person like you
Never existed to me the way I didn't to you
Remember one day, you'll hurt as much as i did
From someone other than myself
You'll experience the same pain
I'm sorry, this is all I can do
Really, it's the only way I can be
For that day to come,
When i can start over like you
For me, who can't love you
And can't help but hate you
