WAIT FOR YOU
Jay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

언제나 내 맘속에 담아둔 너의 모습
하루의 끝엔 언제나 니가 있었어
오래된 서랍 속에 꽃을 담은 너의 말들
더 이상 네게 의미 없는 걸 알지만

시간이 지나 뒤돌아보니
너와 남긴 발자국들이
점점 멀어져 간 걸 왜 몰랐을까? Um-hmm

그대 꽃잎이 되어 바람에 날아가네요
너무 멀리 가진 말아줘 oh
내가 달빛이 되어 그대를 기다릴게요
부디 아프게 웃지 말아 줘
꼭 데리러 갈게

너에겐 늘 철없었던 내 모습도
너에겐 늘 상처였던 기다림도
'미안해'란 세 글자로 풀어내기엔
버거웠겠지, 미웠겠지 (난 늘 그렇게 애였지)

시간이 지나 뒤돌아보니
나를 안아주려 했던 널
밀어내려 한 난 왜 몰랐을까? Oh

그대 꽃잎이 되어 바람에 날아가네요
너무 멀리 가진 말아줘 oh
내가 달빛이 되어 그대를 기다릴게요
부디 아프게 웃지 말아 줘
꼭 데리러 갈게

여전히 내 세상은 니가 전부인데
한참을 기다린 넌 얼마나 아팠을까? Oh
내가 데리러 갈게, 매일 밤 널 기다릴게
부디 잊지 말아 줘

그대 웃어줄래요? Oh
잘 지내야 해요
어여쁜 미소만 내게 남겨줘
내가 달빛이 되어 가는 길 비춰줄게요
그리워지면 돌아와 줘
꼭 데리러 갈게

Overall Meaning

In "Wait for You," Jay expresses his everlasting love and devotion towards someone he holds dear. He keeps their image and presence in his heart at all times. At the end of each day, he always finds comfort and solace in their existence. The lyrics mention the person's words that have been stored in an old drawer, although Jay knows they no longer hold the same meaning. As time passes, Jay realizes that the footprints they left together are gradually fading away, and he wonders why he didn't notice it before.


Jay compares himself to a flower petal being carried away by the wind, emphasizing how far apart they have become. He pleads for them to not drift too far away and promises to wait for them, even if it means becoming the moonlight shining upon their path. He asks them not to hurt themselves and assures that he will come and get them. Jay acknowledges that he was always naive and vulnerable in front of them, and his waiting was always a painful experience. He acknowledges that expressing his apologies with just three words, "I'm sorry," might not have been enough, and it could have felt burdensome or even hateful to the person he loves.


Reflecting on the past, Jay realizes that he unknowingly tried to push away the person who was trying to embrace him. Despite this, his world still revolves around them. He wonders how much pain they endured during the long wait. Jay promises to go and get them, waiting for them every night. He pleads for them not to forget about him and asks if they would be able to smile for him. He requests that they take care of themselves and leave behind their beautiful smile, as he will become the moonlight to guide their way. If they ever miss him, he asks them to come back to him. Jay promises to go and fetch them, no matter what.
