Goodbye
Girls’ Generation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
오늘 니가 내게 어떤 말을 할지도 너무 알겠어
충분히 예상된 진부한 스토리야
Oh 밤새 나눈 얘기와 젖은 그 눈빛
서툴던 너의 고백도 이젠 부끄러운 일기처럼 숨겨지고
매일 둘만의 백야 속 네게 묻던 불안한 미래까지 전부
안녕, Really really good goodbye
한때는 내가 너 없인 숨 쉬기도 힘든 줄 알았어
그때는 니가 나를 존재하게 만든 신 인 줄 알았어
조금 아쉽지만 민망한 이야기
Oh 밤새 나눈 얘기와 젖은 그 눈빛
서툴던 너의 고백도 이젠 부끄러운 일기처럼 숨겨지고
매일 둘만의 백야 속 네게 묻던 불안한 미래까지 전부
안녕, Really really good goodbye
만약 내가 매달려 니 맘을 돌려도
그 다음에 그 다음엔 반복 될 뿐이잖니 Oh yeah
수없이 입술 깨물며 버텼던 마음이 이젠 지친 걸까
아님 내가 너무 큰 기댈 했던 걸까 모르겠어 (기대했는지도 몰라 나)
왠지 내일은 비가 올 것만 같아
메마른 내게 뿌려줘요
안녕, Really really good goodbye
Yeah oh yeah
어렸던 시간 Really really good goodbye (Goodbye)
어제의 나는 (Really really good goodbye ooh)
이제는 안녕, Really really good goodbye
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Good good really really good goodbye, ooh ooh ooh
The song "Goodbye" by Girls' Generation, also known as SNSD, is about a couple's farewell. The singer expresses that she already knows what her partner is going to say, just like a cliche and predictable drama. She remembers the memories they shared, things they talked about and the way their eyes met in the past. However, now their awkward confession feels like it's written in a hidden diary. All their excitement and worry about their uncertain future are now buried. The singer acknowledges that at some point, she believed she couldn't breathe without her partner's presence. But she now finds it a bit regrettable and embarrassing. She wonders if their relationship and her clinginess only resulted in a cycle of repeating the same process of falling apart and trying to fix things. Regardless, she now says goodbye to this relationship as it's the right decision to let it go for something better.
This song's lyrics and melody are melancholic and reflective, perfectly reflecting the experience of a farewell. The song talks about how the end of a relationship can be both sad and relieving. The song's message is clear, regardless of how hard you try to fix things; sometimes, it's best to let go and move on.
