아나요 Let You Know
Wendy Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

아나요?
언제부터였는지
그대 미소가 지친 나를 쉬게 하네요
세찬 궂은 비가 내려도
아픈 눈물비가 되어도
세상 모두 변한다 하여도

아나요?

알 수 없는 기다림
사랑이 아닌 상처가 될까 두려워
굳게 맘을 먹어 보아도
닫힌 맘에 다시 숨어 봐도
그대 어느새 다가와
나와 함께 있네요

고마워요
이 세상이 다 무너질 듯 아프대도
언제라도 구해줄 사람 그대뿐이죠
고마워요
저 하늘이 또 우리를 힘들게 해도
함께할 사람 나 그대뿐이죠

아나요?
우리 운명이란 걸
밀어내 봐도 어쩔 수 없는 이끌림
지금 삶이 끝난다 해도
죽고 다시 태어난다 해도
몇 번이고 그댈 만나
다시 감사할게요

고마워요
이 세상이 다 무너질 듯 아프대도
언제라도 구해줄 사람 그대뿐이죠
고마워요
저 하늘이 또 우리를 힘들게 해도
함께할 사람 나 그대뿐이죠

단 하루도 그대 없이 안돼요
이제 알 것 같아
그대가 있기에 나 있었음을

사랑해요
나의 삶이 또 어둠 속에 갇힌대도
단 한줄기 빛이 될 사람 그대뿐이죠
저 하늘이

심술이 나서 우릴 또 힘들게 해도
지켜줄 사람 나 그대뿐이죠, yeah

아나요?
Do you know?

언제부터였는지
Since when?

그대 미소가 지친 나를 쉬게 하네요
Your smile makes me, who is tired, rest

세찬 궂은 비가 내려도
Even if the heavy, unpleasant rain falls

아픈 눈물비가 되어도
Even if it becomes a painful rain of tears

세상 모두 변한다 하여도
Even if the whole world changes

알 수 없는 기다림
An unknown waiting

사랑이 아닌 상처가 될까 두려워
I'm afraid it will become not love, but pain

굳게 맘을 먹어 보아도
Even if I determine myself firmly

닫힌 맘에 다시 숨어 봐도
Even if I hide back in my closed heart

그대 어느새 다가와
You suddenly come closer
