Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
그땐 풋풋했었지
열일곱 되고
꽃이 피던
어느 날
첫 사랑에
허우적대던 내가
사탕 같은
So sweet
달콤한 달빛 아래
So sweet
딩동 내게
벨이 울렸고
So hot
두 볼엔
불이 난 채
I\'m falling
I\'m falling
Beautiful
first kiss
눈부신
First kiss
너란 세상에
난 물이 들고
사랑에 빠진
달콤한 떨림
Oh
처음 느낀
Fantasy world
그땐 너무 떨렸어
Oh first love
첫 키스에
설레었던 나
그땐 너무 어렸어
Oh first love
첫 키스에
첫 사랑이던 너
잘 있을까
First love
그땐 순수했었지
너와 했던
모든 게
처음이었어
너와 나의
비밀스런 그 밤
가끔 난
그 밤을
들춰 보곤 해
So sweet
처음 맛본
그 떨림에
So sweet
순간 꼼짝
얼어버렸고
So shy
발끝은
막 들린 채
I\'m falling
I\'m falling
Beautiful
first kiss
눈부신
First kiss
너란 세상에
난 물이 들고
사랑에 빠진
달콤한 떨림
Oh

설레었던 나
그땐 너무 어렸어
Oh first love
첫 키스에
첫 사랑이던 너
잘 있을까
눈만 맞춰도
두근두근
떨리던 나
참 행복했었어
손만 잡고도
새빨갛게
부풀던
그 옛날의
내가 그리워
Ah ah
Beautiful

First kiss
The first time I kissed someone

It was so sweet, I couldn't help but act foolishly like a kid in a candy store
달콤한 달빛 아래 So sweet
It was so sweet, like being under a romantic moonlit night
딩동 내게 벨이 울렸고 So hot

My face was burning and I felt like I was falling
