I miss your lips
I miss you, what do I do?
I thought we would last forever
But why? Oh no
Used to call you girlfriend,
my baby, my lady
Used to call you girlfriend,
my baby, my lady
Now, just friends
No, can’t we even be friends?
This isn’t right, I can’t accept this
Baby tell me what you want girl
I’ll do anything (alright)
But you’re looking at me with indifference
Oh baby, do you remember?
Used to call you girlfriend,
my baby, my lady
Used to call you girlfriend,
my baby, my lady
Now, just friends
No, can’t we even be friends?
Look at me once more and smile
I only have pictures of you smiling
You’re not my lover
I’m not even your friend
Without tears, you’re crying too
I can’t live a day without you
You know this, girl you know
You should be my girlfriend,
my baby, my lady
You should be my girlfriend,
my baby, my lady
Now as my girl, with love
I’ll hold you again
You should be my girlfriend

Why do you run,
Keep runnin’ through my mind
Baby, I’m bored, wanna meet?
It’s not a big deal
If you aren’t busy
How about a cup of coffee?
There is this new cafe
Their Mocha Latte is pretty good
I’ll wait, just throw something on and come out
It’s okay because you’re way prettier without any makeup
Your playful words
Everything makes my heart pound
Will you come to me? Come on
You’ve been runnin’ through my mind
Today, tomorrow and the day after
I wanna be with you, all day baby
You’ve been runnin’
It’s like a dream
Just like now, us two
Us two, us two, my baby
Thinking about you
You know I’m thinking about you
When we’re sitting across from each other
And I’m quietly looking at your face
I don’t need any syrup
(That’s right)
Your eyes are so sweet to me
You know this
It’s strange, time goes too fast
I don’t wanna let you go like this
Oh no baby, no words are needed
You know girl
When did it start?
After a long day, I think of you again
I think of you too, that’s right
You’ve been runnin’ through my mind
Today, tomorrow and the day after
I wanna be with you, all day baby
You’ve been runnin’
It’s like a dream
Just like now, us two
Us two, us two, my baby
Thinking about you
You know I’m thinking about you
Baby, without you girl
Without you boy
I can’t take it
I can’t stand it
I think I’ve fallen for you
Now you fill up my days
You’ve been runnin’ through my mind
Today, tomorrow and the day after
I wanna be with you, all day baby
You’ve been runnin’
It’s like a dream
Just like now, us two
Us two, us two, my baby
Thinking about you
You know I’m thinking about you

There’s so many good looking people
Oh nonononono, oh nonono
Oh I can only see you
Not other guys
You shine the most in this world
So don’t be nervous
Even if he/she seems cooler than me
Don’t look at him/her, don’t look at him/her
Even if he/she gives you a sexy smile
I know you will only look at me
But still, don’t look
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Baby don’t look at him/her
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh don’t look at him/her
Some day, I’ll change too
But in front of you, every day
I won’t make it typical
You know, I promised
(What’s that?)
Even after 25 years, I’ll only love you
Sometimes, I get nervous
Why do you like me?
Oh nonononono, oh nonono
Whenever I think about you
I get butterflies
And I start to laugh
So don’t be nervous
Even if he/she seems cooler than me
Don’t look at him/her, don’t look at him/her
Even if he/she gives you a sexy smile
I know you will only look at me
But still, don’t look
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Baby don’t look at him/her
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh don’t look at him/her
Let’s go home together every day
Let’s create new stories every day
Time passes and we will too
But even after a long time
Please be my love
Even if he/she seems cooler than me
Don’t look at him/her, don’t look at him/her
Even if he/she gives you a sexy smile
I know you will only look at me
But still, don’t look
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Baby don’t look at him/her

Kiss me tell me all those lies like when you miss me
Open up your heart and let your love touch me
I just need it all
I’ve been so patient waiting for you so long
[Pre-Chorus]
And if you let it go
When I’m holding you close
Inside my arms at the moment with you
Right now the time is wrong
I’ve been writing these songs about
How I can’t be with you
[Chorus]
But, I don’t wanna be a monster
But I’ve been here for days
Drinking too much now I want you
Can’t get you off my brain
[Post-Chorus]
I won’t be the one to tell you things and lie to you
If you won’t listen, no
I’m not a monster, monster, no
[Verse 3]
But every time you kiss me and
Tell me pretty lies about your history
I’m so tired of the back and forth
Telling me that you’re wanting more

There’s no title
I just wrote this as it came
Your eyes, your nose, even your lips
I wanted to make it into a song
My heart fluttered all night in front of the piano
All-day, I think of how your eyes and smile will look
As you listen to this song
And without knowing, a full day passes
Girl, you keep driving me crazy
I can’t believe I’m in love
If only I could have you, oh baby
I’m singing
In all of these notes
My truth is there
Only one in the world
It’s a love song for you
I want to touch your heart
Till there are tears in your heart
The only and best love song for you
When you smile at me
I think of a sweet melody
Ooh I’m in love with you
I’m in love with you
Ooh I’m in love with you
You know
Girl, you keep driving me crazy
I can’t believe I’m in love
If only I could have you, oh baby
I’m singing
In all of these notes
My truth is there
Only one in the world
It’s a love song for you
I want to touch your heart
Till there are tears in your heart
The only and best love song for you
Ooh
This song’s for you
I need nobody but you
It’s crazy the way that I feel
Oh oh oh
I love you, all of you
With all my heart, I’m singing this love song
My truth is there
I want to touch your heart
The only and best love song for you

You disappeared
after being by my side for a while
I thought I’d be with you forever
Thank you for teaching me
why love is so hard
For real
Although there’s already someone else
who resembles you sitting next to me now
They can never fill the void you left
But I still want to love the girl who looks just like you
I’m sorry but
I need somebody right now
Those words you liked so much
Although it’s too late
and although you don’t anymore
I LOVE YOU
It burned away
after shining for a bit
I thought you’d be with me forever
Thank you for teaching me
why they say love hurts

Don’t forget that song of yours
That stupid habit too
Even the night of the Han river that was good
It’s a memory for you
I guess I’m still in love
Don’t forget, don’t forget
When you walk on the street when you eat
I keep thinking about you oh oh
The way I am without you
I never thought about it
Woo woo woo
I’m left with regret
Woo woo woo
Don’t forget that song of yours
That stupid habit too
Even the night of the Han river that was good
It’s a memory for you
I guess I’m still in love
Don’t forget, don’t forget
Actually, I’m the same as you
I can’t forget you
Because you’re the only one
I remember kissing you
And the movie we saw together
The alleys of your house on fire
It’s a memory for you
I guess I’m still in love
I’m sorry to you
I love you, I love you
