Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
어느새 두시 반 잠들지 못해 난
어김없이 네 생각 오늘도 뒤척이게 돼
가끔 좀 아득해
친구라는 우리 사이가
그마저 망칠까
네 주위만 헤매듯 맴돌아
오늘도 난 waste my time
네 사진을 보고 또 봐
다 쓸데없는 짓
더 다가가지 못한 채
너를 공전하는 중 ah
내 사계절은 너로 피고 진다
내 낮과 밤을 전부 너로 채운다 (yeah, yeah)
늘 같은 궤도 너는 나의 태양 (oh)
잠 못 드는 밤 계속 제자리만 맴돌아
Going round and going round and round
네 생각만 맴돌아
Going round and going round and round
너의 곁을 맴돌아
Going round and going round and round
제자리만 맴돌아
Going round and going round and round
You don't know I need ya
늘 같은 이 거리는
좁힐 수 없는 너와 내 간격
어느새 익숙해진 distance
내 자신을 탓해 (바보 같은 나)
가까워지려다 추락해버릴까
뒷걸음치다간 점이 될까
꼬리에 꼬릴 무는 생각들이
나를 괴롭혀 이젠 익숙해 yeah
내 사계절은 너로 피고 진다 (I don't know why)
내 낮과 밤을 전부 너로 채운다 (yeah, yeah)

The song Round and Round by U-KISS is about a person who cannot stop thinking about their friend and is stuck in a cycle of unrequited love. The lyrics express how the singer's thoughts revolve around their friend, and they cannot escape this endless loop. The song talks about how the singer spends all their time thinking about their friend, looking at their photos, and cannot move on from their feelings. The singer feels foolish for being unable to bridge the gap between them and their friend but cannot stay away from them either.
The lyrics portray a sense of helplessness and being trapped in one's own thoughts, unable to break free. The song's chorus emphasizes this by repeatedly saying, "Going round and going round and round, you don't know I need ya." The singer cannot break free from their cycle of thinking and cannot express their feelings to their friend.
Overall, the lyrics of Round and Round by U-KISS are emotional and speak to the heart of anyone who has been in a situation where they cannot escape their own thoughts and feelings.
