I'm sorry
T.O.P (Big Bang) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I think I'd have to have lived a long long time ago
When the moon was around and we moved to the sound
Of our own romantic song
And I gave you all the gifts that my body had to bear
But this world chewed them up spat them all out
And you acted like you didn't care

Well enough is enough when the going get tough
Did we put our love on ice did it get cold
Well this world is so rough it could steal all of our love
But it could never steal our soul

Hold on love
I can see you now
I can feel your pain
I can see you now
I can feel your pain
It's comin' down like rain
And I'm so sorry

If you should leave me now
I'll sing for you a song
And it won't be a sorry song
It won't be a where did we go wrong
No, I'll sing a song of joy
That remains forever in my soul

Because saw us tonight she carves out
The amount of joy we can hold
If you leave me now
Love, then I must stay, well, I pray we meet again
Another time, another way
This far we filled
Well it must not go cold
And they will never steal our soul

Hold on love
I can see you now
I can feel your pain
I can see you now
I can feel your pain
It's comin' down like rain
And
Hold on love
I can see you now
I can feel your pain
I can see you now
I can feel your pain
It's comin' down like rain
And I'm so sorry
Hold on love
I can see you now
I can feel your pain
I can see you now
I can feel your pain




It's comin' down like rain
I'm so sorry

When Yg had ONLY GummySe7en2ne1Bang.... We All Feel the true meaning of YG FAMILY!! So sad
YG lost his true Family!.😭😭😭

@lust9818

Exactly and the only two I would let in is Winner and Ikon 👑

@smokinonyourtop5357

Jinusean, Epik High, Psy, Sechskies too. YG didn’t lose his family, it’s just the evolution of life. They all have different paths and keep moving on just like the old ones die and new ones to come, that is just the law of nature. However, the artists that left are still welcomed to visit and their legacies still remain there. At the end of the day, they were used to be together and a family does not mean being directly together but it is in the hearts!

@ukchanshiro5962

No. YG family was never gone. On and off camera, they are always family. Even people who left YG some still maintain contact with them and none of them uttered any bad word about YG after leaving. It's YG FAMdom that's been gone all this time. YG fandoms attack the company, attack the other artists in YG, fight with each other then fight amongst their fandom bruhh now YG famdom returns or not depends on the fandoms too.
