PLAVE “Wait for you” Lyrics

Hangul

Woo woo woo woo woo
Woo woo woo woo woo
매일 이렇게
난 늘 혼잣말을 해 Always
기다릴게

Hello, 요즘 어때
그래, 여전히 널 그리곤 해
수 백 번씩 준비한 birthday
아무 일도 없이 지나간 걸
Hello, 이 말을 못하고
애써 난 무심한 척
너를 지나쳐갔어

절대 난 어울리지 않을 거란 말로
내 감정을 숨겼어
별 의미가 없잖아
널 향한 나의 맘이
점점 커져서

(기다릴게)
너의 그곳에
내가 닿을 수 있게
(기다릴게)
너의 곁에
내가 숨쉴 수 있길
매일 이렇게
난 늘 혼잣말을 해 Always

Woo woo woo woo woo
(Wait for you)
여전히 Woo woo woo woo woo
(Wait for you)
매일 이렇게
난 늘 혼잣말을 해 Always
기다릴게

꽤나 오랜만인 것 같아
떠오르는 건 오직 잘 지냈냐는 말 밖에
아무 소식 없는
널 같은 자리에서 기다렸어
몇번의 계절이 지나도 너 밖엔
생각나지 않고 아무것도 보이지가 않아
아무리 노력해봐야
제자리만 맴돌아
시작이 다르더라도 괜찮아
난 항상 출발선에 멈춰 있으니까

(기다릴게)
너의 그곳에
내가 닿을 수 있게
(기다릴게)
너의 곁에
내가 숨쉴 수 있길
매일 이렇게
난 늘 혼잣말을 해 Always

어젯밤 꿈속에 활짝 웃는
너를 봤어
그런 널 위해
꽃 한 송일 품에 안고
약속을 할 게
두 번 다시 네 손
놓지 않을 거라고 woo

(기다릴게)
너의 그곳에
내가 닿을 수 있게
(기다릴게)
너의 곁에
내가 숨쉴 수 있길
매일 이렇게
난 늘 혼잣말을 해 Always

매일 이렇게
난 늘 혼잣말을 해 Always
기다릴게

Translation

Woo woo woo woo woo
Woo woo woo woo woo
Every single day
Right here by myself I say Always
For you I wait

Hello, how have you been?
I know, I’m still missing you all the same
Like always I thought about your birthday
But this time it went by like any ordinary day
Hello Couldn’t say what I wanted to say
Pretended I’m okay And I
just kept walking on by

No way, there’s no way we can get along
That’s what I say, and try again to fool myself
But what’s the point in doing that
When the feelings that I try to hide
Keep on, breaking out

(For you I wait)
Where our worlds collide
I want to take a deep dive
(For you I wait)
Right by your side
I want to breathe and be alive
Every single day
Right here by myself I say Always

Woo woo woo woo woo
(Wait for you)
I’ll always Woo woo woo woo woo
(Wait for you)
Every single day
Right here by myself I say Always
For you I wait

Feelin’ eons gone by therein
Only thing I can think of asking you is how you’ve been
Long since you went off my grid
but I’m still waiting for you on it
Seasons go by but you’re the only one within
Can’t think can’t see Can’t blink can’t be
Runnin’ round and round in circles
Drawin’ rings inside a tree
Don’t matter where it starts inside the pine
There’ll never be an end, there’s only the start line

(For you I wait)
Where our worlds collide
I want to take a deep dive
(For you I wait)
Right by your side
I want to breathe and be alive
Every single day
Right here by myself I say Always

Last night in my dreams
I saw you smiling oh so brightly
I’m holding just for you
A single flower deep within me
One thing I promise
I will never ever
Let go of your hand again woo

(For you I wait)
Where our worlds collide
I want to take a deep dive
(For you I wait)
Right by your side
I want to breathe and be alive
Every single day
Right here by myself I say Always

Every single day
Right here by myself I say Always
For you I wait
