Like Nothing

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
무색해지는 달력이
시간은 일정하게 흘러
너와의 거리를 만들어 oh
코 끝 찬바람에
네 품이 그리워 버렸고
발 끝을 따라온
그림자는 짝을 잃어버렸어
살갗을 에는 듯 모든 게 나에게 불어와
문득 서러워져
너는 정말 있었던 걸까
흐려진 얼굴위로 기억을 더듬어
두 손을 덥혀주던 따뜻했던 체온과
잊을 틈 없도록
매일 내게 들려주던 목소리까지도
잊혀지지 않는데 사라져가
없던 일처럼
애써 비워낸 마음이
남겨져 버린 오늘이
새로 쓰여진 순간에 oh
너의 자리를 만들어 ooh
불빛이 사라진 막다른 골목의 끝에서
돌아온 거리를
물끄러미 바라보고 서있어
살갗을 에는 듯
모든 게 나에게 불어와
문득 서러워져
너는 정말 있었던 걸까
흐려진 얼굴위로 기억을 더듬어
두 손을 덥혀주던 따뜻했던 체온과
잊을 틈 없도록
매일 내게 들려주던 목소리까지도
잊혀지지 않는데 사라져가
없던 일처럼
Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah
The lyrics of Younha's song "Like Nothing" explore the feeling of emptiness and loss after a significant person has left someone's life. The singer reflects on the changing seasons, the fading calendar, and the passage of time, which all seem insignificant and colorless without the presence of the person they miss.
The cold wind on the tip of their nose reminds them of the warmth and comfort of being in the other person's arms, while the shadow that used to follow them has lost its partner. The singer feels like everything is blowing towards them, as if their surroundings are constantly reminding them of the person they long for. It's as if the memories, the touch of their hands, the sound of their voice, are etched in their skin and refuse to be forgotten.
The emptiness that the singer has tried so hard to erase remains, and the present day feels like a moment that has been abandoned and left behind. They find themselves standing at the end of a dimly lit alley, looking out for the return of the distance that has disappeared. The lyrics continue to express the singer's longing and the inability to forget the person, as the memories are recalled through obscured faces and the warmth of their touch.
Overall, "Like Nothing" captures the melancholic feeling of someone trying to come to terms with the absence of a loved one and the inability to let go of the memories.

무색해지는 달력이
The fading calendar
시간은 일정하게 흘러
Time flows steadily
너와의 거리를 만들어 oh
Creating distance between us, oh
코 끝 찬바람에
In the cold wind at the tip of my nose
네 품이 그리워 버렸고
I long for your embrace
발 끝을 따라온
Following my footsteps
그림자는 짝을 잃어버렸어
The shadow has lost its pair
살갗을 에는 듯 모든 게 나에게 불어와
Everything seems to come to me as if touching my skin
문득 서러워져
Suddenly becoming sorrowful
너는 정말 있었던 걸까
Were you really there?
흐려진 얼굴위로 기억을 더듬어
Groping for memories over a blurred face
두 손을 덥혀주던 따뜻했던 체온과
The warm body temperature that used to cover my hands
잊을 틈 없도록
Without any chance to forget
매일 내게 들려주던 목소리까지도
Even the voice that used to reach me every day
잊혀지지 않는데 사라져가
It doesn't get forgotten, but it's disappearing
없던 일처럼
As if it never happened
애써 비워낸 마음이
The heart that I tried to empty
남겨져 버린 오늘이
Today that has been left behind
새로 쓰여진 순간에 oh
In the newly written moment, oh
너의 자리를 만들어 ooh
Creating your place, ooh
불빛이 사라진 막다른 골목의 끝에서
At the end of a dead-end alley where the lights have disappeared
돌아온 거리를
The returning distance
물끄러미 바라보고 서있어
I stand there, gazing silently
Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah
