Things We Took For Granted
Lee Juck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

그 때는 알지 못했죠
우리가 무얼 누리는지
거릴 걷고 친굴 만나고
손을 잡고 껴안아주던 것
우리에게 너무 당연한 것들

처음엔 쉽게 여겼죠
금세 또 지나갈 거라고
봄이 오고 하늘 빛나고
꽃이 피고 바람 살랑이면은
우린 다시 돌아갈 수 있다고

우리가 살아왔던 평범한 나날들이 다
얼마나 소중한지 알아버렸죠
당연히 끌어안고 당연히 사랑하던 날
다시 돌아올 때까지 우리 힘껏 웃어요

잊지는 않았잖아요
간절히 기다리잖아요
서로 믿고 함께 나누고
마주보며 같이 노래를 하던
우리에게 너무 당연한 것들

우리가 살아왔던 평범한 나날들이 다
얼마나 소중한지 알아버렸죠
당연히 끌어안고 당연히 사랑하던 날
다시 돌아올 거예요 우리 힘껏 웃어요





당연히 끌어안고 당연히 사랑하던 날
다시 돌아올 거예요 우리 힘껏 웃어요

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lee Juck's song Things We Took For Granted are a contemplative reflection on the everyday moments of life that we often overlook and take for granted, until they are gone. The singer remembers the simple joys of walking along the streets, meeting friends, holding hands, and embracing, all of which seemed so ordinary at the time. He realizes now how these moments were the foundation of his life and how much they meant to him. The seasons passing by - the spring blooming, the sky shining and the wind swaying the flowers - seemed to be reassuring, allowing him to believe that he can always go back to those moments.


As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges that he has come to understand the true value of the simple and ordinary moments of life. The days when he hugged someone he loved or laughed freely with them, that he thought of as mundane before, are now considered the most precious moments of his life. He urges us to cherish these moments with all our might, and even if they leave us, we must never forget them, but hold on to them and wait patiently for them to come back.


The song is a powerful reminder to stay mindful of the small things that bring joy to our lives, and to cherish every moment, because one day we will look back and realize how much we took them for granted.

His voice is so comforting <3 This song is absolutely beautiful, I can’t believe someone found a way to create something so good out of the mess that 2020 has been. Sometimes it feels like music is the only good thing we have left. I’m so grateful to all the musicians and artists out there!
