(álbum: Sorry, Sorry - 2009)

[Romanized:]

Ssayuh ganeun shigandeuleun amado yokshimeul booleuna bwayo
Uhjehboda oneul duh appa jingul bomyun... oh girl
Nareul hyanghan miso ehdo manyang hengbokhal soo ubssuhjin gun
Teukbyulhami ubtdaneun gul ara bulin hoo bootuh yutjo baby

What if geudehga nal saranghal gutman gatta
Jogeum gidarimyun nehgeh ol gutman gattasuh
Ilun gidehlo naneun geudel dduhnal soo ubjyo
Geuluhkeh shigani ssayuh apeumi dweneun gul jal algo isseumyunsuh oh girl

Nehgeh man jooneun gurago midgo shippuhjineun miso yutjiman
Anin gugetjyo geulehdo hokshina hamyunsuh...

What if nehga geudel munja mannassut damyun
Ani chalali na geudehleul mollassut damyun
Ilun senggakdo nehgen amoo soyongi ubjyo
Gipsook hageh bakhin geudehlaneun shigan sokeh imi salgo isseuni

Shiganeh moogeh mankeun sarangeun duh hehgago apeumi mooguhwuhdo
Geulehdo unjen gan nal saranghal gutman gatta
Jogeum gidalimyun nehgeh ol gutman gattasuh
Ilun gidehlo naneun geudel dduhnalsoo ubjyo
Geulukeh shigani ssayuh oneuleul mandeun gul jal algo isseumyunsuh
Oh girl oh~ lady

[Korean:]

쌓여가는 시간들은 아마도 욕심을 부르나 봐요 어제보다 오늘 더 아파진걸 보면….oh girl
나를 향한 미소에도 마냥 행복할 수 없어진 건 특별함이 없다는 걸 알아 버린 후부터였죠 baby

What if 그대가 날 사랑할 것만 같아 조금 기다리면 내게 올 것만 같아서
이런 기대로 나는 그댈 떠날 수 없죠
그렇게 시간이 쌓여 아픔이 되는 걸 잘 알고 있으면서 oh girl

내게만 주는 거라고 믿고 싶어지는 미소였지만 아닌 거겠죠 그래도 혹시나 하면서…

What if 내가 그댈 먼저 만났었다면…아니 차라리 나 그대를 몰랐었다면…
이런 생각도 내겐 아무 소용이 없죠 깊숙하게 박힌 그대라는 시간 속에 이미 살고 있으니…

시간의 무게만큼 사랑은 더해가고 아픔이 무거워도 그래도 언젠간 날 사랑할 것만 같아
조금 기다리면 내게 올 것만 같아서 이런 기대로 나는 그댈 떠날 수 없죠
그렇게 시간이 쌓여 오늘을 만든 걸 잘 알고 있으면서…oh girl oh~ lady

[English translation:]

It seems as though the accumulated time is being greedy
Seeing as it hurts more today than yesterday... oh girl
It was after I realized that I couldn't be totally happy with that smile towards me, that there was nothing special, baby

What if... it seems like you're going to love me
Because it seems like you're going to come to me if I wait just a little...
With these anticipations, I can't leave you
Even though I know that as time accumulates, it becomes pain... oh girl

Even though I wanted to believe that that smile was just for me
It probably isn't, right? but still... just maybe…

What if... I met you first... no, if I didn't know you
These thoughts are useless...
For I'm already living in the deeply set times of you

Even though love increases as much as time's weight, even though pain is heavy
Still, I feel like you'll love me
Because it seems like you're going to come to me if I wait just a little...
With these anticipations, I can't leave you
Even though I know that the accumulated time has made today... oh girl
Oh~ lady
