Holy Moly
Ive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

난 어렸을 때 내가 조금 특별하다 믿었어
가끔 사람 맘을 조종하는 묘한 힘이 있다고
꽤나 평범했던 어느 날
널 본 순간 so slow
점점 빨라지는 심장소리
동공은 확 커졌어 (동공은 확 커졌어)

잘 봐, 이런 장면 내가 놓칠 것 같애?
절대 never 재능을 더 발휘해
해볼까 trust me 오랜만에 널 향해

셋을 세면 돌아본다
Oh, holy moly
셋을 세면 걸어온다
Oh, holy moly

아직 먹히네 supernatural thing
내가 뭐랬어? This is what I have
방금 이건 꼭 비밀로 해줘
No, no, don't do that
소문나면 피곤해

Something special 분명 우리 사이엔
뭔가 있어 설명할 순 없는데
집중해 다시 멀어지는 널 향해

셋을 세면 돌아본다
Oh, holy moly
셋을 세면 걸어온다
Oh, holy moly
셋을 세면 마주친다
Oh, holy moly
셋을 세면 나를 본다
Oh, holy moly

Oops 나는 벌써 네가 좋은 것 같애
그렇다고 우쭐해서는 안돼
오늘 내 맘이 그렇단 것뿐야 babe, yeah

셋을 세면 돌아본다
Oh, holy moly
셋을 세면 걸어온다
Oh, holy moly
셋을 세면 마주친다
Oh, holy moly
셋을 세면 나를 본다
Oh, holy moly




셋을 세면 빠져든다
Holy moly

It's a pity that starship didn't treat holy moly as a title song in this ep . This song has the potentiality to dominate all charts.

@goddessrei

and knowing him he won't even take the time to promote holy moly 😭

@Baulsito64

SPAM Starship make this song BOP!

@aerivianvien3826

That's what I'm saying, this should've been the title song or atleast the prerelease. They fumbled so bad
