누군갈 그렇게
가슴이 터질 만큼
좋아해지지 않아
푸르게 번지던
둘만의 여름날을 건너서
이별 앞에
내게 돌아서던 순간
혼자 숨죽여 울던 밤
아직도 여기
그대론데
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
뭘까 그때 내게
사랑이란
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
어쩜 다신 사랑
못할 것만 같아
있잖아 난 말야
낯설어 모든 게
한 번도 이런 나를
상상해 본 적 없어
반복된 우연과
몇 번의 계절이 또 겹쳐져
사랑 앞에
어느새 와버린 거야
처음 손을 잡은 그날
나란히 걸었던 순간
자꾸 꿈인 것만 같은데 왠지
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
뭘까 지금 내게
사랑이란
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
어쩜 이런 사랑
못할 것만 같아
그때 설레던 그때
그때 선명한 그때
그때 그때 세상이 다
눈부시던
그때 혼자서 울 때
그때 아팠던 그때
그때
그때 그때
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
영원 같던 그때 스무 살 어느 날
In One Day Of Twenty by Younha, the singer reflects on a past relationship, remembering how she never felt the intense love she thought she should feel, and how unfamiliar she was with the emotions of love. The song opens with the singer admitting that she never experienced the strong emotions associated with love, even though she was with someone she should love. She then remembers a summer day when she and her partner were happy, but now that day has become a painful memory of their goodbye. The singer feels trapped when she thinks back to the moments they shared and can’t help but wonder what love really is, admitting it feels like something she’ll never achieve again.
The song continues with the singer asking herself if she’ll ever love again, admitting that it seems impossible. She doesn't understand why love seems so unattainable for her. She remembers her first date with her now ex-partner and how the world seemed brighter, as if all the colors in the world were shining straight into her eyes. The memory is so vivid that she can’t help but feel like it was all a dream. She recalls those moments when she felt a strong connection with the person now lost, moments that cut deep and will remain a part of her forever. The song ends with the singer holding onto memories of the past, wondering if love will ever find her again.

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
영원 같던 그때 스무 살 어느 날
Back when we were twenty and it felt like forever
