We were meant to be in another time, another life
Possibly, probably you would be mine
Can you get away, get away, can you get away
I wanna go go where you are(x3)

@lin0647

this song is so underrated. it feels like one of my best kept music secrets

@HungTran-gz5em

It's wacky motiff is quite different from the usual Korean style of "pretty boy, pretty girl". So I think that's one of the reasons why it's not popular.

@FlyToTheRain
