TAKE ON ME
HIGHLIGHT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
매일 매일 난 상상해
우리 둘만 남아버린 세상을
그곳에선 nobody can touch
오직 우리 둘만의 all day
영원한 헤엄 그 안에서
너와 함께 꿈을 꾸길 바라
우릴 갈라놓으려 애쓰는 이 세상을 벗어나
Let's runaway, runaway
이곳에서 나와 함께 달아나 oh baby
Tell me you love me if you want me
나와 같은 맘이라면
내 손을 잡고 눈을 감아
쉿 take on me
날 데려가 줘
우리 말곤 아무도 없는 그곳으로 oh whoa
I Just wanna love
날 바라봐 줘 네 눈 속에 영원토록 갇혀 버린대도
I'll be there for you, my love
Take on me now
Take on me now
너무 복잡해 이 세상은
너만 바라보기에 집중이 너무 안 돼
하얀 도화지가 필요해
내 마음을 찍어서 너를 sketch 할래
여긴 너무 칙칙해 안 어울려 colorful 한 너에겐
지지해 여리고 때 묻지 않은 너에겐 우리 둘이면 돼 그 밖엔 다 불필요해
떠나자 어디든 그곳이 heavenly break
우릴 갈라놓으려 애쓰는 이 세상을 벗어나
Let's runaway, runaway
이곳에서 나와 함께 달아나 oh baby
Tell me you love me if you want me
나와 같은 맘이라면
내 손을 잡고 눈을 감아
쉿 take on me
날 데려가 줘
우리 말곤 아무도 없는 그곳으로 oh whoa
I Just wanna love
날 바라봐 줘 네 눈 속에 영원토록 갇혀 버린대도
I'll be there for you my love
Take on me now
Take on me now
When your eye's on me
When you lean on me
Ooh, I feel like I got everything
널 사랑해 모든 마음 담아
언제까지나 변치 않길
Take on me now, wow, wow
우리 둘뿐인 그곳으로, oh
Take on me now
Take on me now
The song “Take on Me” by HIGHLIGHT is about yearning to be with someone forever and gaining freedom from the struggles of the world by escaping with that person to a place where they could just be together. The artist sings about being unable to bear the absence of the person they love, and constantly fantasizing about a world where only they exist - a place where nobody else can reach, and where they can spend all day with each other. The chorus of the song echoes the plea of the singer, who begs for their lover to take them to a place where no one but them exists, where they can be free from the rest of the world and its challenges. The singer wants to be with someone who feels the same, rather than put up with an often-complicated world where they have to share their love with many.
The use of imagery is essential to the meaning of the song - the singer wants to escape a world they find too complicated and lacking in color to a more colorful, simpler existence. Furthermore, the use of “sketch” and “drawing” in the lyrics may be interpreted to mean that the singer wants to redraw their whole existence and start anew with the person they love.
Overall, “Take on Me” is a song about wanting to escape a complicated world with the person they love and create a simple, colorful world where they're the only ones that matter.

너무 복잡해 이 세상은
This world is too complex
너만 바라보기에 집중이 너무 안 돼
I can't focus on anything but you
하얀 도화지가 필요해
I need a blank canvas
내 마음을 찍어서 너를 sketch 할래
I want to draw you by imprinting my heart
여긴 너무 칙칙해 안 어울려 colorful 한 너에겐
It's too dull here, it doesn't match someone as colorful as you
지지해 여리고 때 묻지 않은 너에겐
Support you, to you who are pure and stain-free
우리 둘이면 돼 그 밖엔 다 불필요해
All we need is each other, everything else is unnecessary
떠나자 어디든 그곳이 heavenly break
Let's leave to anywhere, that's a heavenly break
When your eye's on me
When your eyes are on me
When you lean on me
When you lean onto me
Ooh, I feel like I got everything
Ooh, I feel like I have everything
널 사랑해 모든 마음 담아
I love you with all my heart
언제까지나 변치 않길
I hope it never changes
Take on me now, wow, wow
Take me now, wow, wow
우리 둘뿐인 그곳으로, oh
To the place where it's just us two, oh
Take on me now
Take me now
