Prologue
Sarah Kang Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

그때는 그랬었지
That's how we used to be
We thrived on daydreaming
Staring at the ceiling
그때는 몰랐었네
We lived on naïveté
Put the same song on replay
Didn't care that it was cliche
So let's rewind to the prologue
Find out where we came from
Look through a rosy glass
Remember how it began
So let's rewind to the prologue
Find out what we forgot
Before shit hit the fan
Before we saw the end
If only we can go back in time
If only we can go back in time
그때는 그랬었지
We had possibility
Didn't mind standing in the rain
Staring at your face
그때는 좋았었지
Everything was easy
Didn't take a lot to make me smile
I thought that you would stay awhile
So let's rewind to the prologue
Find out where we came from
Look through a rosy glass
Remember how it began
So let's rewind to the prologue
Find out what we forgot
Before shit hit the fan
Before we saw the end
Time, I'm off it
Good so good when the vibe is toxic
Fuss and fight, just to fuss all night
Then we live our lies
Can't believe I lost it
Take me to the beginning
It's never-ending, regretful
Memories never fade
Nostalgia, I'm in a daze
This feelin', can't seem to chase
Liquor, can't seem to taste
Forget it, I guess I'll stay
You weigh upon my mind
But maybe that's wishful drinking, I'm tweaking
So hard to find
I'm headed right to the brink and I'm thinking I'll cross the line, so
If only we can go back in time
If only we can go back in time
I know it's faded
But turn back the pages
Oh, do you remember
When it was all better
I know it's faded
But turn back the pages
Was it really all better




Or is it how I remember
Or is it how I remember

You took me back to my child version when I was holding an ice-cream in the middle of a fair looking at grownups laughing and enjoying this type of tunes 🥰 only a good song can steer a good memory 🤩🥳
