[Korean:]

내 기억의 구석
한 켠에 자리잡은 갈색 piano
어릴 적 집 안의 구석
한 켠에 자리잡은 갈색 piano
그때 기억해
내 키보다 훨씬 더 컸던
갈색 piano 그게 날 이끌 때
널 우러러보며
동경했었네
작은 손가락으로 널 어루만질 때
“I feel so nice, mom I feel so nice”
그저 손 가던 대로 거닐던 건반
그땐 너의 의미를 몰랐었네
바라보기만 해도 좋았던 그때

그때 기억해
초등학교 무렵
내 키가 너의 키보다 더 커졌던 그때
그토록 동경했던 널 등한시하며
백옥 같던 건반 그 위 먼지가 쌓여가며
방치됐던 니 모습
그때도 몰랐었지
너의 의미 내가 어디 있든 항상 넌 그 자릴
지켰으니 그런데
그게 마지막이 될 줄 몰랐네
이대론 가지마 you say..

“내가 떠나도 걱정은 하지마
넌 스스로 잘 해낼 테니까
널 처음 만났던
그때가 생각나
어느새 훌쩍 커버렸네 니가
우리 관계는 마침표를 찍지만 절대
내게 미안해 하지마
어떤 형태로든 날 다시 만나게 될 거야
그때 반갑게 다시 맞아줘”

그때 기억해
까맣게 잊고 있었던
널 다시 마주했던 때 14살 무렵
어색도 잠시 다시 널 어루만졌지
긴 시간 떠나있어도 절대 거부감 없이
날 받아줬던 너
without you there's nothing
새벽을 지나서 둘이서 함께 맞는 아침
영원히 너는 나의 손을 놓지마
나도 다시 널 놓지 않을 테니까

그때 기억해
나의 십대의 마지막을
함께 불태웠던 너 그래 한 치 앞도
뵈지 않던 그때 울고, 웃고
너와 함께여서 그 순간조차
이제는 추억으로
박살난 어깰 부여잡고 말했지
나 더 이상은 진짜 못하겠다고
포기하고 싶던 그때마다
곁에서 넌 말했지
새꺄 너는 진짜 할 수 있다고
그래 그래
그때 기억해
지치고 방황했었던
절망의 깊은 수렁에
빠졌던 그때 내가 널 밀어내고
널 만난 걸 원망해도
넌 꿋꿋이 내 곁을 지켰지 말 안 해도
그러니 절대
너는 내 손을 놓지마
두 번 다시 내가 널 놓지 않을 테니까
나의 탄생 그리고 내 삶의 끝
그 모든 걸 지켜볼 너일 테니까

내 기억의 구석
한 켠에 자리잡은 갈색 piano
어릴 적 집 안의 구석
한 켠에 자리잡은 갈색 piano

[English translation:]

The corner of my memory
A brown piano settled on one side
In the corner of my childhood house
A brown piano settled on one side
I remember that moment
Way taller than my height
The brown piano that guided me
I looked up to you
I yearned for you
When I touched you with my small finger
I feel so nice mom I feel so nice
I played the piano wherever my hands took me
I didn't know your significance back then
Back then I was content with just looking at you

I remember back during my elementary school days
When my height became taller than yours
I neglected you when I once yearned for you so
On top of the white jade-like keyboard
Dust is piling on
Your image that has been neglected
Even then I didn't know your significance
No matter where I am
You always defended that spot
But I didn't know that would be the last
You say don't leave like this

Don't worry even if I leave
You'll do well on your own
I remember when I first met you
Before I knew it you grew up
Though we are putting an end to our relationship
Don't ever feel sorry to me
I will get to meet you again
no matter what form
Greet me happily then

I remember back then when I met you that
I had completely forgotten, when I was around 14
The awkwardness was only for a moment, I touched you again
Even though I was gone for a long time
Without repulsion
You accepted me
Without you there's nothing
After the dawn, two of us
We welcomed the morning together
Don't let go of my hand forever, I won't let go of you again either

I remember back then
We burned up the last of my teen's
Yes the days when we couldn't see an inch in front of us
We laughed, we cried
Those days with you,
those moments are now in memories
I said, grasping my crushed shoulder
I really can't do any more
Every time I wanted to give up
By my side you said
Bastard you can really do it
Yeah, yeah
I remember back then
When I was fed up and lost
Back then when I fell into a pit of despair
Even when I pushed you away
Even when I resented meeting you
You were firmly by my side
You didn't have to say anything
So don't ever let go of my hand
I won't let you go ever again either
My birth and the end of my life
You will be there to watch over it all

The corner of my memory
A brown piano settled on one side
In the corner of my childhood house
A brown piano settled on one side
