Higher
GOT7 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
지워지지 않아
I can love 사랑할 나이가 됐어
나 충분하잖아
생각이 나
또 생각이 나
너의 모습이
텅 빈 머리에 반복되는 건 너
잊지 못해 널
시간이 갈수록 더 빠져들어 가
I'm stuck in a trance
어디로 못 가
One, two, three, let's go
You say hi hi 너의 손짓이
날 뛰게 만들어
너의 작은 행동이 날
계속 미치게 만들어
Take me high high
머린 아픈데 기분은 좋아져
너라는 약 없이 난
도저히 못 참겠어
Take me higher higher (higher, higher, higher)
Take me higher higher (higher, higher, higher)
빛이 나 네가 빛이 나
오우 정말 미쳤나 봐
You're my moon
내 길을 밝혀줘
아름다운 네 맘을 열어줘 (열어줘)
내 얘길 한번 들어봐
I feel so high
When it's just us two
Hold on tight
I'm lost without you (you)
끝없이 몰아치는 세상에서
너의 편이 돼줄게
널 떨어지게 두지는 않아
절대 놓지 않을게
눈감고 나를 믿어봐
You say hi hi 너의 손짓이
날 뛰게 만들어
너의 작은 행동이 날
계속 미치게 만들어
Take me high high
머린 아픈데 기분은 좋아져
너라는 약 없이 난
도저히 못 참겠어
Take me higher higher (higher, higher, higher), take me higher
Take me higher higher (higher, higher, higher), one more time say
Take me higher higher (higher, higher, higher)
Take me higher higher (higher, higher, higher)
The lyrics to GOT7's Higher speak of being stuck in a trance of thoughts and memories of a past love interest. The singer reminisces about the way their love interest used to look at them with childlike wonder, and how their image continues to linger in their mind. Despite the memories causing emotional turmoil, the singer acknowledges that they have come of age to love and that their heart is capable of loving someone new. The repetitive nature of the memories speaks to the inability to let go of the past and move on. The chorus speaks to finding solace in the presence of the love interest, and how their small actions and gestures can bring happiness and excitement even in the midst of a difficult situation. The singer is searching for a way to escape from their current state of mind and to be taken to a higher state of being, both emotionally and physically.
The song is about finding hope and happiness in the midst of difficult circumstances. It speaks of the power of love to uplift and inspire, even when things seem bleak.
