난 한참을 앉아만 있었네 저기 하루가 저물어가네 해가 지고서 옥상에서 만나 늘 안던 자리 그 자리에 앉아 생각이 나서 전화를 걸었어 오늘 밤 여기서 도망칠까 해가 지고서 옥상에서 만나 늘 안던 자리 그 자리에 앉아 오 시간은 짧아 그 순간순간을 이어 붙여 여기 잠시 머무는 것뿐야 그 얘긴 내일 해 정말 내일 해 뜨거웠던 그때 그 맘으로 어제만큼만 하루를 살자 오 시간은 짧아 그 순간순간을 이어 붙여 여기 잠시 머무는 것뿐야 그 얘긴 내일 해 정말 내일 해 뜨거웠던 그때 그 맘으로 어제만큼만 하루를 살자

난 한참을 앉아만 있었네
I sat for a long time doing nothing

저기 하루가 저물어가네
The day is slowly fading away over there

해가 지고서 옥상에서 만나
We meet on the rooftop after the sunset

늘 안던 자리 그 자리에 앉아
Sitting in the same spot where we don't usually sit

생각이 나서 전화를 걸었어
I thought of calling you

오늘 밤 여기서 도망칠까
Shall we run away from here tonight?

오 시간은 짧아 그 순간순간을 이어 붙여
Oh, time is short, let's connect those moments together

여기 잠시 머무는 것뿐야
We're just staying here for a moment

그 얘긴 내일 해 정말 내일 해
Let's talk about it tomorrow, really tomorrow

뜨거웠던 그때 그 맘으로
With the passion we had back then

어제만큼만 하루를 살자
Let's live the day as if it were yesterday
