Sam Kim (샘김) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can I run and hide
I'm stuck inside my memories

Step away from time
Take me to a place where I will never grow old

I'm tired everyday
I'm thirsty for the rain
That waters all of my melodies

The needle in the sky
Never fails to light my night
And it sews my heart on my tattered sleeve

Oh please, my heart is all for you
Just please take care of me
I'm all for you

Well, take, take, take me all for you
Take, take, take me home to you

한국말이 더 빨리 늘었음 좋겠어 umm
나의 마음을 더 잘 전할 수 있게 oh
비가 많던 그 곳 모두들 건강한지
가끔 내 생각은 하는지 oh

아직 낯선 여기 나를 좋아해주는
새로운 친구 내게 생겼어

Oh please 이젠 날 받아줘
Just please 들어가게 허락해줘
늘 여기 있던 것처럼
Let, let, let me in your heart

들려줄 말이 너무 많은데

Oh please 내 손을 잡아줘
Just please 어제처럼 날 안아줘




늘 함께 있던 것처럼
Take, take, take me home

Overall Meaning

In the lyrics of Sam Kim's song SEATTLE, the artist expresses his desire to step away from his problems and find solace in a place where time stands still. He seems to be experiencing a constant state of exhaustion and longing for something that will rejuvenate him. The metaphor of the needle in the sky is striking, as it symbolizes hope and light, something that reminds him that he is not alone. The phrase "sewing my heart on my tattered sleeve" suggests that he is an open book, and it is almost as if he is asking someone to take care of him. The repetition of "Take, take, take me home to you." indicates that he needs someone to guide him and show him the way.


The second part of the song is in Korean, where the artist wishes that he could express his feelings better in his native language. He wonders if the people he left behind are still healthy and if they remember him. He expresses gratitude for the new friends that he has made, who have made this unfamiliar place feel like home. He wants to be accepted and loved for who he is, and he wants his message to be heard. The lyrics are a testament to the universal human experience of searching for a place to belong, and the importance of human connections is emphasized.
