TAEYEON “Heaven” Lyrics

Hangul

Heaven
내게 완벽한 heaven

어둠 속의 빛 짙은 이끌림
마치 구원처럼 손을 뻗어와
돌아선 오늘이 다가올 내일이
불안한 내 마음을 뒤흔든 tonight

Ah, I’ll believe it when I feel it
주저 없이 falling into you (You)
번져오는 감각들이
실현되는 déjà vu

너 없이 완벽한 heaven
불어오는 마음의 dimension, oh
누구도 본 적 없는
네 상상보다 아찔한, oh, heaven, oh, heaven
You’d better follow my way, 솔직한 그대로 good enough
Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven
No matter what others say, 더 많이 나를 망쳐도 돼
Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven

Yeah, 일렁이는 여기 by my side
어둠 속을 헤매며 느껴봐
No drama, no more karma
마주할 paradise (Oh, woah)

나의 입술이 닿는 모든 곳에
위험한 감정이 살아날 거야

너 없이 완벽한 heaven
불어오는 마음의 dimension, oh
누구도 본 적 없는
네 상상보다 아찔한, oh, heaven, oh, heaven
You’d better follow my way, 솔직한 그대로 good enough
Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven
No matter what others say, 더 많이 나를 망쳐도 돼
Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven

Oh, nah
걷잡을 수 없는 상상 위
All night long
Oh, heaven

Ah, I’ll believe it when I feel it

You’d better follow my way, soljikan geudaero good enough

No matter what others say, deo mani nareul mangchyeodo dwae
Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven

Yeah, illeongineun yeogi by my side
Eodum sogeul hemaemyeo neukkyeobwa
No drama, no more karma

Neo eopsi wanbyeokan heaven
Bureooneun maeumui dimension, oh

Ne sangsangboda ajjilhan, oh, heaven, oh, heaven
You’d better follow my way, soljikan geudaero good enough
Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven
No matter what others say, deo mani nareul mangchyeodo dwae
Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven

Oh, nah

Translation

Heaven A perfect heaven for me

A light in the darkness, a deep attraction Reaching out a hand like salvation Turning back today, the approaching tomorrow Shaking my anxious heart tonight

Ah, I’ll believe it when I feel it Falling into you without hesitation (You) The spreading sensations A déjà vu coming to life

A perfect heaven without you A blowing dimension of the heart, oh That no one has ever seen Dizzier than your imagination, oh, heaven, oh, heaven You’d better follow my way, just being honest is good enough Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven No matter what others say, you can ruin me even more Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven

Yeah, swaying right here by my side Wander through the darkness and feel it No drama, no more karma The paradise to face (Oh, woah)

Everywhere my lips touch Dangerous emotions will come alive

A perfect heaven without you A blowing dimension of the heart, oh That no one has ever seen Dizzier than your imagination, oh, heaven, oh, heaven You’d better follow my way, just being honest is good enough Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven No matter what others say, you can ruin me even more Tonight I’ll show you the way to heaven

Oh, nah Above uncontrollable imagination All night long Oh, heaven
