Just for a moment
Ken Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

아무 일 아닌 듯 그만하자 안녕
너는 우리의 1년이 별거 아닌가 봐
너와 가려고 아껴둔 예쁜 곳들과
보여주고 싶었던 좋은 게 참 많은데

비라도 오면 혹시 네가 감기에 걸릴까
왼쪽 어깰 적시며 곁에 붙어 걷던 나
네가 좋다면 네가 원하면
뭐든지 맞춰줄 수 있던
이런 나를 두고서 떠난단 게 말이 돼

10분이라도 더 보려고 한참을 달려와서
숨이 차게 널 끌어안던 날
보내기 싫어 몇 번이고 다시 돌아서던
내 마음을 버리고 가지 마

당장 내일부터 나 혼자서 뭐해
매일 내가 해야 할 일 너밖엔 없는데
좋은 꿈 꾸란 너의 목소리도 없이
잠이 들 수 있을까 어떻게 눈을 감아

전화기 너머 숨소리만 달라도 걱정돼
달려가던 날 네가 더 잘 알잖아
너만 좋다면 네가 원하면
뭐든 다 포기할 수 있던
이런 나를 두고서 떠난단 게 말이 돼

10분이라도 더 보려고 한참을 달려와서
숨이 차게 널 끌어안던 날
보내기 싫어 몇 번이고 다시 돌아서던
나를 버리고 가지 마

너 하나 빼면 아마 난 없을 텐데
날 떠나지 마 제발

잠깐이라도 좋을 텐데 내 품에 안긴 채로
웃어주던 널 볼 수 있다면




단 한 번만 함께 걸었던 그때의 우리로
그때의 너로 돌아와

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ken's song "Just for a moment" depict a bittersweet farewell and longing for a past relationship. The singer starts by suggesting that they should part ways casually, as if it's no big deal, but deep down, they believe that their year-long time together meant something significant. They express their regret over not being able to show their significant other all the beautiful places they had saved to visit together and the good things they wanted to share. The singer questions if their partner would catch a cold if it rained and if they would still lean on their shoulder and walk beside them as they used to. They reflect on their willingness to go along with anything their partner wanted if it made them happy and wonder if it makes any sense for them to leave.


In the chorus, the singer reveals that they ran for a long time, even just to have ten more minutes together, and embraced their partner tightly, not wanting to let them go. They express their reluctance to say goodbye, repeatedly turning back and pleading for their partner not to leave and abandon their feelings. The singer wonders what they will do alone starting tomorrow when everything they need to do revolves only around their partner. They question if they can even fall asleep without their partner's voice, which was the sound of a good dream. The singer admits that just the sound of their partner's breath on the other side of the phone worried them, as they knew them so well. They emphasize their willingness to give up everything if their partner was happy and wanted it, making it even harder to comprehend why they left.

What am I supposed to do alone starting tomorrow?

Everyday, there's nothing else for me to do but you

Without your voice, which brought good dreams


잠이 들 수 있을까 어떻게 눈을 감아
Can I sleep? How can I close my eyes?

Just the sound of your breathing on the other end worries me

Please don't leave me


잠깐이라도 좋을 텐데 내 품에 안긴 채로
Even for a moment, it would be nice if I could hold you in my arms


웃어주던 널 볼 수 있다면
If I could see you, who used to make me smile


단 한 번만 함께 걸었던 그때의 우리로
Just once, let's go back to when we walked together


그때의 너로 돌아와
Come back as the you from back then

From Fans to Ken

You know how we ran to you,
If you like, if you want
We would give up everything
How can we leave you behind
Just to see you for 4:37 minutes
We ran a while to hold you tight
We won't leave you forever~

Ken deserves more attention, his voice is perfect, I hope that people get to know him more and support him ♥️ this song is my new religion right now

MJNerd c:

I respect Jaehwan so much. His voice and his artistry knows no bounds at all. The way he sings with such stability and passion is something not only to be praised but take note of. There isn't many like him in the industry. I love him so much and wish him the best. Being a Starlight is definitely one of the best decisions of my life
