Beautiful Goodbye

Everything’s coming back to me
Even though I tried so hard to forget

나 보다 한 마디 큰 손,
나 보다 두 뼘 큰 키,
나 보다 네 살 먼저 세상에 태어났죠,

무심히 지나쳤던 그대의 모습들이,
자꾸만 더 가까이 이제야 더 가까이,

내 어떤 말이 그대를,
속상하게 하게 될지,
어떤 모습이 그댈 힘들게 할런지,

그대를 알기 전,
그 누구라도 알았다면,
혹시나 그대가 처음 아니었다면,
좀 더 먼저 나를 던져,
그대에 번져 사랑했다면,
But a Beautiful Goodbye,

햇살이 더 아름답던,
내 기억 속 어느 날엔,
방과 후 교문 앞에,
날 기다려 주었죠,

친구들이 입을 모아,
우릴 자꾸만 놀려도,
그댄 미소 띈 웃음으로,
나의 손을 꼭 잡아줬죠,

때 묻은 운동화 끝이,
조금 부끄러워져서,
그대 시선 서툴게 돌리려 했었죠,

그대를 알기 전,
그 누구라도 알았다면,
혹시나 그대가 처음 아니었다면,
좀 더 먼저 나를 던져,
그대에 번져 사랑했다면,
But a Beautiful Goodbye,

뾰족한 걸 삼킨 듯이,
넘어가지 않는 기억에,
목이 메어 왈칵 나도 모르게,
또르르 눈물이 나 My love,

시간이 지나도 자꾸 선명해져 가요,
처음의 기억은 모두 이런건가요,
그만큼 더 그대라서 그리워서,
더 가슴 아파도,
But a Beautiful Goodbye,

너무 보고싶어 나도 몰래,
찾아간 날 그저 난 멀리서,
바라보는 것 밖에,
숨 죽인 내 눈물 너머,
그대 모습이 멀어져가요,
But a Beautiful Goodbye,

But a Beautiful Goodbye,
But a Beautiful Goodbye,
그만큼 더 그대라서 그리워서,
더 가슴 아파도,
But a Beautiful Goodbye.

Everything’s coming back to me
Even though I tried so hard to forget

Your bigger hand
Your taller height
You were born four years before me
I thoughtlessly passed by you
Now I want to be closer and closer

Whatever I say to you
Might be sad, might be difficult

Before I knew you
If someone else knew
If you weren’t the first one
Throw me away first
If we had shared love
But a beautiful goodbye

The sun was very beautiful
In my memory on a particular day
In front of the school gates
You waited for me
All my friends started gossiping
Even if they made fun of us
Your obvious smile in your laughter
You held my hands tightly

The dirt on the laces of my sneakers
Made me a bit embarrassed
I turned away from your attention

Before I knew you
If someone else knew
If you weren’t the first one
Throw me away first
If we had shared love
But a beautiful goodbye

As if I swallowed something sharp
The memory that I can’t forget
I unknowingly find myself choking
My tears form, dripping
My love

Even when time passes by it becomes clearer
Is every first memory like this?
Because it’s you I’ll miss you more
Even if my heart hurts
But a beautiful goodbye

I secretly really miss you
I was far away when I found you that day
I only looked at you
Breathless, my tears fall
You are going away
But a beautiful goodbye

But a beautiful goodbye, but a Beautiful Goodbye
Because it’s you I’ll miss you more
Even if my heart hurts
But a beautiful goodbye
