Now Is Good
Kim Jaejoong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
난 바보같이
어쩌다 우연히
피어난 감정일 뿐일텐데
나 혼자 울어
당신의 넓은 어깨와
그 푸른 눈빛은
못난 나의 모습 때문에
초라해 보여
더 힘들었지
지금 이 순간을
놓치고 싶지 않아
난 후회 없어
사랑에 빠진 내 감정의 사치라 해도
난 여기 있어
너와 함께라면
Now is good
당신이 불러준 내 이름
난 절대 잊지 않을 거야
서툴고 어색한 키스에
심장이 떨려 주저앉았어
자작나무 밑 추억들 달리던
기억들 생각나네
이 모든 것들이 믿기지 않아
웃었네 울어버렸네
지금 이 순간을 놓치고 싶지 않아
난 후회 없어
사랑에 빠진 내 감정의 사치라 해도
난 여기 있어
Oh yes you saved my life (yes you saved my life)
Yes you lived my life (yes you lived my life)
Oh yes you saved my life (yes you saved my life)
Yes you lived my life
너와 함께라면
Now is good
너와 함께라면
Now is good
"Now Is Good" is a heartfelt and sentimental love song by Kim Jaejoong. The lyrics express the longing and excitement of experiencing a love that he had never dreamed of before. He describes himself as foolish, unable to believe that such intense emotions could bloom unexpectedly in his heart. Despite feeling alone and shedding tears, he finds solace in the comfort of the person he loves, symbolized by their broad shoulders and captivating blue eyes that shake him to his core.
The song also delves into the singer's insecurities and self-doubts. He feels inadequate and pitiful because of his flawed self-image, believing that it made things even more challenging for him. However, in this moment, he declares his determination not to miss this precious opportunity for love. He refuses to have any regrets and embraces the intensity of his feelings, even if society may view them as extravagant indulgence.
The chorus provides reassurance and devotion. Even though he considers his love for this person as a luxury, the singer firmly states that he will remain present by their side. He cherishes the time spent together, emphasizing that "Now is good," indicating a sense of contentment and fulfillment when he is with his loved one. The repeated mention of not forgetting the other person's name shows the sincerity and depth of their connection.
The lyrics also evoke memories and nostalgia. The singer reminisces about moments spent under a cedar tree, where thoughts of past memories rush to his mind. He recalls feeling emotions of disbelief, laughing and crying in disbelief at the overwhelming happiness he now experiences. These recollections add depth and a sense of vulnerability to the song, emphasizing the profound impact the love interest has had on his life.
The refrain repeats the sentiment that the present moment is cherished. The singer reiterates his lack of regrets, mentioning his indulgence in the passionate feelings that love brings, emphasizing his commitment to remain by his loved one's side. The final repetition of "Now is good" reinforces the contentment and satisfaction he finds in their relationship, expressing his desire to continue sharing such a profound connection.

서툴고 어색한 키스에
With clumsy and awkward kisses
심장이 떨려 주저앉았어
My heart trembled and hesitated
자작나무 밑 추억들 달리던
Memories that ran under the maple tree
기억들 생각나네
I remember those memories
이 모든 것들이 믿기지 않아
I can't believe all of this
웃었네 울어버렸네
I laughed, I cried
Oh yes you saved my life (yes you saved my life)
Oh yes, you saved my life
Yes you lived my life (yes you lived my life)
Yes, you lived my life
Oh yes you saved my life (yes you saved my life)
Oh yes, you saved my life
