내가 누구
SunMi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
쿨한 척 센 척은 필요 없어
내가 널 누구보다 잘 아는데 어떻게
네가 나를 속이겠어
한번에 네 맘을 삼켰던 여자애가
눈앞에 다시 나타났는데
가슴에 딱 마치 문신처럼 남은 내가
어떠니 one, two, three, four, you and me
나랑 또 시 시 시작해보고 싶니
Oh baby, you can ask for what you need
눈을 떠 get it, get it, get it for love
떠난 후에 네가 나에게 그랬지
한참을 감기 걸린 아이처럼 아팠다고
보석을 잃어버린 것처럼 슬퍼했다고
네 맘을 가진 게 누구니
Ah ah ah ah ooh
Ah ah ah ah ooh
Ah ah ah ah ooh
Ah ah ah ah ooh
툭하면 생각난 여자애가
꿈처럼 앞에 나타났는데
아무리 지워도 지워지지 않는 내가
너를 보며 또 웃고 있어
어떠니 one, two, three, four, you and me
나랑 또 시 시 시작해보고 싶니
Oh baby, you can ask for what you need
눈을 떠 get it, get it, get it for love
떠난 후에 네가 나에게 그랬지
한참을 감기 걸린 아이처럼 아팠다고
보석을 잃어버린 것처럼 슬퍼했다고
네 맘을 가진 게 누구니
버려도 버리지 못했다고
떠나도 떠나지 못했다고
잊어도 잊은게 아니었다고
Baby oh
한참을 나만 빤히 바라보는 너 좀 웃겨
바보같이 멍하니 쳐다보면 나 또 맘 바껴
놀란 니 토끼 같은 두 눈과
미친 듯 뛰는 심장과
날 그리워했다는 표식
You are addicted like toxic
어떠니 one, two, three, four, you and me
나랑 또 시 시 시작해보고 싶니
Oh baby, you can ask for what you need
눈을 떠 get it, get it, get it for love
떠난 후에 네가 나에게 그랬지
한참을 감기 걸린 아이처럼 아팠다고
보석을 잃어버린 것처럼 슬퍼했다고
네 맘을 가진 게 누구니
버려도 버리지 못했다고
떠나도 떠나지 못했다고
잊어도 잊은게 아니었다고
Baby oh
The lyrics of SUNMI feat. 유빈 of Wonder Girls's song 내가 누구 talks about a woman who tries to act cool and unaffected in the presence of the man she knows very well. She reflects on their past relationship and how she feels like a tattoo on his chest that he can't erase. The woman talks about how the man is addicted to her like a toxic substance and how she still has a hold on him even after they have parted ways. Despite her feelings for him, she acknowledges that she cannot force him to stay with her and asks if he wants to start again.
The chorus talks about how the woman wants to try it once more with the man and how they can obtain love by asking for it. She remembers how hurt the man was after their break-up and how he couldn't forget her. The lyrics reflect painful emotions of lost love, regret, addiction, and betrayal. It is a story seen from the woman's perspective who goes through different emotional states while remembering her past relationship.
Overall, the lyrics of the song give an insight into the complex emotions of a woman who tries to control her feelings for someone she loves deeply. It's a song about hanging on to someone you can't forget and the bitter realization that loving someone doesn't always mean you can be together.

한참을 나만 빤히 바라보는 너 좀 웃겨
It's funny how you stare blankly at me for a while
바보같이 멍하니 쳐다보면 나 또 맘 바껴
When you stare at me foolishly, I change my mind again

Your surprised rabbit-like eyes and
미친 듯 뛰는 심장과
Your crazily beating heart,
날 그리워했다는 표식
The mark that shows you missed me
You are addicted like toxic
You're addicted like it's toxic
