Miss You
Eric Nam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

난 아주 가끔
난 아주 그냥 가끔
아무런 이유 없이 생각이 나

그냥 조용히
아무런 예고 없이
혼자서 있을 때 난
네 생각이 나

습관처럼 네 소식을 확인하고
쓸데없이 핸드폰만 쳐다봐
너를 끊기 힘들었던 그때보단
숨 막히게 공허한 지금이 나아
I don't miss you

이제 난 너 없이 난 괜찮아
조금만 지나면
I'll be alright
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too

난 아직 너를
그래도 아직 너를
못 참고 찾게 될까 불안해져

애써 아닌 척
무심한 척 해봐도
네 작은 흔적에도
무너져 난

술이 없인 고작 하루를 못 지내고
평생 안 펴봤던 담배를 배웠어
너를 끊기 힘들었던 그때보단
숨 막히게 공허한 지금이 나아
I don't miss you

이제 난 너 없이 난 괜찮아
조금만 지나면
I'll be alright
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too

잊을 때도 됐는데
But it takes time
내가 너 없이 이대로 괜찮을까
너를 지워내기 위해 혼자 하는 거짓말
No, I don't miss you

이제 난 너 없이 난 괜찮아
조금만 지나면
I'll be alright
I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too




I don't miss you
Don't miss me, too

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Eric Nam's "Miss You" describe the struggle of moving on from a past relationship. The songwriter acknowledges that he still thinks about his past lover but also realizes that he doesn't necessarily miss them. He describes momentary lapses in concentration where he can't help but think about them, but highlights that he can make it through the day without them. He compares the pain of missing someone to feelings of emptiness and loneliness, implying that perhaps being alone is even more difficult than missing that person.


The song also speaks to the ways in which we try to distract ourselves from missing someone, like compulsively checking our phones for any news or updates on the person. Eric Nam admits that he's learned to smoke and drink to cope with the pain of missing someone, but ultimately acknowledges that none of these things can provide a long-term solution. The chorus repeats that he doesn't miss the person anymore, though in the bridge he admits that he's still struggling to forget them and wonders if he'll ever be able to move on.


Overall, the song is a poignant reminder of the challenges associated with letting go of someone we once cared for deeply. It speaks to the anxiety and sense of loss that often accompanies the process, as well as the struggle to separate from someone we've grown accustomed to being around.

I hear you speaking
Your words they lost their meaning
And I'm so done with dealing
Dealing with you

Feels like you're reaching
For something I ain't seeing
Don't mean to be misleading
Misleading to you

When I said we could stay friends
Why'd you believe it
Being friends is something
Lovers just can't do
When I said maybe one day
I didn't mean it
Well at least right now
I'm telling you the truth
I don't miss you

When you go
Go your way
And I'll go mine
Let it go
Don't look back you'll be all right
I don't miss you
Don't miss me too

I know your hurting
No easy way word it
You'll find someone who's perfect
Perfect for you

But it just ain't me
Don't mind if you just hate me
Take back this time you're wasting
And spend it on you

When I said we could stay friends
Why'd you believe it
Being friends is something
Lovers just can't do
When I said maybe one day
I didn't mean it
Well at least right now
I'm telling you the truth
I don't miss you

When you go
Go your way
And I'll go mine
Let it go
Don't look back you'll be all right
I don't miss you
Don't miss me too
I don't miss you
Don't miss me too

It's not easy to let go
Of what we had
We lost that feeling
It's over We can't go back
We could try to work it out
But tell me what's the use in that
Cause I don't miss you

When you go
Go your way
And I'll go mine
Let it go
Don't look back you'll be all right
I don't miss you
Don't miss me too
I don't miss you
Don't miss me too

Eric Nam, THE most underrated Kpop singer 🤦🏿‍♂️

@moonbyby

Pardon but I hope you stop saying underrated word to Eric, he is doing alright

@amberstepp151

Elle가비 no they’re not saying Eric himself is underrated personally, they’re basically saying he doesn’t get enough recognition, because he’s really good at what he does.

@martina7351

Well actually Eric is a lot famous in Korea
