시계태엽
Lim Jung Hee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I, I can wait for you
기다린다고 그 말도 못하고
너 니가 떠난 곳 그 자리에서 계속 서 있어

마치 풀려버린 시계 태엽처럼
너를 향해 멈춰진 바늘처럼
계속 녹이슨 채로 이대로 서 있어 난
난 움직이려고 애를 써봐도 멈춰진 채고 ooh
널 잊으려 해도 지우려 해도 그대로 인걸

마치 풀려버린 시계태엽처럼
너를 향해 멈춰진 바늘처럼
계속 녹이슨 채로 이대로 서 있어 난

Ooh-ooh-oh-ooh-oh yeah
Lara-lara-lara ooh-oh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-oh-ooh-oh yeah
Lara-lara-lara ooh-oh-ooh

마치 풀려버린 시계태엽처럼
너를 향해 멈춰진 바늘처럼
계속 녹이슨 채로 이대로 서 있어 난, 난





I, I can wait for you
기다린다고 그 말도 못하고 hmm

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lim Jung Hee's song "시계태엽" (Clock Hand) describe the feeling of being stuck in time and unable to move on from a past relationship. The singer expresses that despite wanting to move on and forget their former lover, they find themselves frozen in place, like clock hands that have stopped moving and leaves fallen from a clock. The repetition of the phrase "I can wait for you" highlights the singer's reluctance to let go and move forward.


The line "너 니가 떠난 곳 그 자리에서 계속 서 있어" (I keep standing where you left me) emphasizes the feeling of being stuck in the past and unable to move forward. The singer is unable to let go and remains in the same position, as if time has frozen.


The comparison of the singer to a clock hand and a fallen leaf also adds to the sense of being stuck in time, with the clock hand being frozen in one position and the fallen leaf being unable to move from its spot. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of being trapped in the past and unable to move on, despite the singer's desire to do so.

if you are here because of Baekhyun, here the english translation that i found in google~

I I can wait for you
I will be waiting
Even if you not coming back
You see
I’m floating away
on the spot
But you are still standing there

Look at me, please look
At the pathetic me who
wait for you yet
Youre like a clock that stops moving
Continue to remain at the same place
Standing there

If I moved away
Leave you all alone
But I cant
Return to take you
I cant erase you away
You are intact to my memories

Look at me, please look
At the pathetic me who
wait for you yet
Youre like a clock that stops moving
Continue to remain at the same place
Standing there

Look at me, please look
At the pathetic me who
wait for you yet
Youre like a clock that stops moving
Continue to remain at the same place
Standing there

I,I can wait for you
I will be waiting
Even if you not coming back
