NAOKI Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I′m not gonna stop you (stop you)
But before you go
Hurt me so I can't forget you
Say it wasn′t love
Say I was a fool
Anything to tear me apart
Why do you smile?
Why are you holding me now?
Kiss kiss kiss
Kissing you one more time before
You walk out that door
Wishing behind these lips oh baby please stay (please stay)
Now you know I'm me
Looking down the street
Thought I could handle this moment
But your love was good
So so so good
And it's too much to lose
Miss miss miss
Missing you as you turn around
Walking out that door
My heart is crying out oh baby don′t go (don′t go)
No
I won't tell you so
Or that I love you (no, oh)
I′ve gotta let you go
(Goodbye)
The lyrics to Naoki's song "KISS KISS KISS" speak to the pain and heartbreak of a love that is coming to an end.

The love that they shared was "so so so good," and the thought of losing it is too much to bear.

They must say goodbye and let them go, even though it hurts.

Line by Line Meaning
Leave
You are free to go
I′m not gonna stop you (stop you)
I will not hold you back
But before you go
But please hear me out
Hurt me so I can't forget you
Please leave a memorable pain
Say it wasn′t love
Say you never loved me
Say I was a fool
Say I was naïve
Anything to tear me apart
Anything to cause emotional damage
Why do you care?
Why do you show concern?
Why do you smile?
Why do you fake happiness?
Why are you holding me now?
Why give me false hope?
Kiss kiss kiss
One last kiss
Kissing you one more time before
Kissing you for the last time
You walk out that door
Before you leave
Wishing behind these lips oh baby please stay (please stay)
Hoping you will stay
Now you know I'm me
Now you know who I am
Looking down the street
Watching you leave
Thought I could handle this moment
Thought I could endure this moment
But your love was good
But your love was amazing
So so so good
So incredibly good
And it's too much to lose
And it's difficult to move on
Miss miss miss
Missing you
Missing you as you turn around
Missing you as you leave
Walking out that door
Leaving me behind
My heart is crying out oh baby don′t go (don′t go)
My heart is pleading for you to stay

中文翻译：离开我不会阻止你阻止你但是你去伤害我之前我会忘记你说不是爱说我是个傻瓜有什么可以把我分开你为什么在乎你为什么微笑你怎么现在抱我吻吻吻在接吻一次你走出那扇门在这些嘴唇后面许愿Oh Baby请留下请留下放开我看着街道以为我可以应付这一刻但是你的爱是如此美好而且损失太多了想念想念想念转身时想念你走出那扇门我的心在哭泣Oh Baby不要走不要走不我不会告诉你还是我不爱你我要让你走再见By the way I searched up the lyrics and I translated it into Chinese through google translation
