*English Translation*


[JinYoung] On my way back from leaving you
[Sandeul] I’ll forget you, I’ll erase you, my burnt and blackened love

[JinYoung] Don’t make that face
This is my last conversation with you
Don’t be disappointed
Yes, don’t meet a guy like me now
I’ll be on my way first

[Sandeul] I’m getting farther away from you
You’re disappearing
Don’t easily forget me
Because it’ll hurt too much

[CNU] I’m walking on these streets without you
I’m walking on these streets without you

[JinYoung] On my way back from leaving you
I’ll forget you, I’ll erase you, my burnt and blackened love

[Baro] I guess love is leaving
It rides the wind and flies far away
I guess everything is changing
I guess you’re changing just like me
Even though it hurts, I’m relieved
Even this feeling is too burdensome to me. You’re looking at me nervously, like a whining child. Your tears are holding onto my shoulders that have turned away
Saying goodbye is sweet
But I’m okay though it hurts
I take my foot out from your shadow
I take off our ring too

[Gongchan] I’m getting farther away from you
You’re disappearing
Don’t hate me
[CNU] Because it’ll hurt too much baby

[Sandeul] I’m walking on these streets without you
I’m walking on these streets without you

[Baro] It hurts
I miss you so much
I’m going, I’m going, I’m leaving
[Sandeul] You probably don’t know yet, you probably can’t know yet
I look at you, who is struggling…

[JinYoung] Because it hurts more for me
I’m letting you go like this
[Gongchan] Tears are flowing because you and I
[Sandeul] We loved so much

[CNU] I’m walking on these streets without you
I’m walking on these streets without you
[JinYoung] I’m walking on these streets without you

[JinYoung] I’m walking on these streets without you
