말해봐
Girls’ Generation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
형식일 뿐이야 식상해
난 뭘 원하는지 말은 못해도
느낌을 믿어 지루해
너의 말투도 너의 행동도
진심이 느껴지지가 않는걸
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
굳어 버린 내 맘을 녹여 봐
따스한 노력이 필요해
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
어떻게 내 맘 잡을지
작은 것에 여잔 항상 감동해
Let's talk talk about, talk talk about it boy
넌 여자를 몰라 잔머릴 굴려
무능력하지 just a boy
난 Stereotypical 한 여자가 아냐
특별한 뭔가 필요해
너의 말투도 너의 행동도
진심이 느껴지지가 않는걸
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
어떻게 날 감동시킬지 (hoo)
굳어 버린 내 맘을 녹여 봐
따스한 노력이 필요해
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
어떻게 내 맘 잡을지
작은 것에 여잔 항상 감동해
Let's talk talk about, talk talk about it boy
Talk about it, talk about it, talk about it
Talk talk talk talk about it boy
Talk talk talk talk about it
Talk talk talk talk about it
Talk talk talk talk about it
Talk about it, talk talk about it
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
어떻게 날 감동시킬지
어두워진 내 맘을 비춰 봐
절실한 배려가 필요해
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
어떻게 내 맘 잡을지
작은 것에 여잔 항상 감동해
Let's talk talk about, talk talk about it boy
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
어떻게 날 감동시킬지 (hoo)
굳어 버린 내 맘을 녹여 봐
따스한 노력이 필요해
말을 해 봐 말을 해 봐 말해 봐
어떻게 내 맘 잡을지
작은 것에 여잔 항상 감동해
Let's talk talk about, talk talk about it boy
The lyrics of Girls' Generation's song "말해봐 (Talk Talk)" delve into the complexities of communication and emotional connection in a romantic relationship. The singer addresses a partner who seems to not understand women, dismissing their comments as cliché and superficial. The singer acknowledges their inability to articulate their desires in words but emphasizes the importance of trusting one's feelings over mere words, as words alone can feel monotonous and insincere. The lack of sincerity in the partner's words and actions is highlighted, suggesting a disconnect between what is said and what is truly felt.
The chorus of the song embodies the plea for open communication and emotional vulnerability. The singer urges their partner to express themselves honestly in order to move and melt the singer's hardened heart. There is a call for effort and warmth in communication, emphasizing the need for genuine emotional connection rather than empty words or gestures. The desire for the partner to not just speak, but to truly touch the heart and soul of the singer, is palpable throughout the song.
The lyrics also touch upon gender stereotypes and expectations in relationships. The singer asserts that they are not a stereotypical woman and seeks something special and unique from their partner. The rejection of traditional gender roles and the desire for genuine, heartfelt connection underscore the theme of breaking free from societal norms and seeking authentic emotional bonds.
The repetition of the chorus, with its insistence on talking and expressing oneself authentically, reflects the underlying message of the song - the importance of open communication, emotional honesty, and genuine efforts to understand and connect with one another. The repeated urging to communicate and show genuine care and consideration for each other's feelings reinforces the idea that true emotional intimacy and connection can only be achieved through sincere, heartfelt conversations and actions.
