"Life" is a song by South Korean boy group SHINee. The song is about someone who only lives for the love of their life. They feel that their life only begins once they have found that special person, and without them, they would be lost. The lyrics describe the depth of feelings one can experience when in love, including the pain and tears that come with it.
The song starts with Minho's verse, where he expresses his love for the only person in the world that he loves. Jonghyun sings about how his life transformed when he met this person and how he wants to start anew with them. Onew talks about how hard life can be without the person he loves and how they keep him going. Taemin and Key also join in, singing about their desire to be with their loved one always.
The chorus emphasizes how much SHINee wants to be with their loved one, and they would do anything to make it happen. The lyrics are emotional and raw, conveying the pure love that SHINee feels for their special someone.
