Hyunjin “Lover” Lyrics

Hangul

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m running in the rain, yeah
망가진 내 맘 씻겨 내리길
한 때 사랑하긴 했던 거지? Right, right?

Lover, lover, lover is hurt ’cause she went away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much until that rainy day
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say

Oh, 맨정신은 벅차
I don’t want to drink no more, no more, no more
Why’re you acting like it’s me, it’s all my fault, you mean?
하긴 원래 넌 그런 애였을 테니
Oh, why, why
Why is it not me?
In your eyes
이유를 찾지, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m running in the rain, yeah
망가진 내 맘 씻겨 내리길
한 때 사랑하긴 했던 거지? Right, right?

Lover, lover, lover is hurt ’cause she went away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much until that rainy day
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say
Lover, lover, lover needs a hug ’cause she’s gone away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much, 미화된 기억엔
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say

이젠 널 놓아도 돼?
우린 알잖아 솔직히 첫 단추가 어긋
첨의 그 설렘, 약속했던 것
누구도 되돌리지 못하는 기억들
Tell me why, 어떤 게 그리도 맘에 걸려서
Tell me how, 어떤 식으로 했어야만 했어
Tell me why, 어떻게 그리 쉽게도 변해서
Tell me how to get out of this, now I’m done with you

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m running in the rain, yeah
망가진 내 맘 씻겨 내리길
한 때 사랑하긴 했던 거지? Right, right?

Lover, lover, lover is hurt ’cause she went away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much until that rainy day
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say

Loved her, loved her, loved her so much, 미화된 기억엔
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m running in the rain, yeah
Hoping it washes away my broken heart
You once did love me, though? Right, right?

Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say

Oh, this is too much to handle while sober
I don’t want to drink no more, no more, no more
Why’re you acting like it’s me, it’s all my fault, you mean?
Then again, you were always like that
Oh, why, why
Why is it not me?
In your eyes
I’m searching for a reason, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m running in the rain, yeah
Hoping it washes away my broken heart
You once did love me, though? Right, right?

Lover, lover, lover is hurt ’cause she went away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much until that rainy day
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say
Lover, lover, lover needs a hug ’cause she’s gone away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much in my rose-tinted memories
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say

Can I let go of you now?
We both know, honestly, things were off from the beginning
That first excitement, the promises we made
Memories that no one can turn back
Tell me why, what bothered you so much
Tell me how, how things should have been done
Tell me why, what made you change so easily
Tell me how to get out of this, now I’m done with you

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m running in the rain, yeah
Hoping it washes away my broken heart
You once did love me, though? Right, right?

Lover, lover, lover is hurt ’cause she went away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much until that rainy day
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say
Lover, lover, lover needs a hug ’cause she’s gone away
Loved her, loved her, loved her so much in my rose-tinted memories
Lover, lover, lover dies ’cause there’s no way
Lover, lover, love is gone, no matter what I say

Hyunjin “Lover” Meaning

“Lover” is a deeply introspective solo track that showcases Hyunjin’s emotional depth and artistic growth. Built on a lo-fi, sludgy trap sound, the song moves away from high-energy K-pop and instead leans into a moody, melancholic atmosphere. His soft yet slightly “slurred” vocal delivery enhances the raw, vulnerable tone, making the track feel intimate and personal.

Hyunjin “Lover” Lyrics 1

At its core, “Lover” explores themes of longing, desire, and emotional attachment. Rather than presenting a straightforward love story, the lyrics dwell on complicated feelings where affection is intertwined with uncertainty and inner conflict. This gives the song a “tortured” edge, reflecting the messy and often unspoken sides of love.

Released on his birthday as a gift for fans, “Lover” also highlights Hyunjin’s growth as a songwriter and composer. By stepping into a more refined, artistic space, he reveals a different side of himself one that prioritizes emotion, atmosphere, and authenticity over conventional pop structure.
