Lyrics and English translation IU - 나만 몰랐던 이야기

나만 몰랐던 이야기

정말 넌 다 잊었더라
반갑게 날 보는 너의 얼굴 보니

그제야 어렴풋이 아파오더라
새 살 차오르지 못한 상처가

눈물은 흐르질 않더라
이별이라 하는 게 대단치도 못해서
이렇게 보잘것없어서

좋은 이별이란 거, 결국 세상엔 없는 일이라는 걸
알았다면 그때 차라리 다 울어둘 걸

그때 이미 나라는 건 네겐 끝이었다는 건
나만 몰랐었던 이야기

사랑은 아니었더라
내 곁에 머물던 시간이었을 뿐

이제야 어렴풋이 알 것만 같아
왜 넌 미안했어야만 했는지

내가 너무 들떴었나 봐
떠나는 순간마저 기대를 했었다니
얼마나 우스웠던 거니

좋은 이별이란 거, 결국 세상엔 없는 일이라는 걸
알았다면 그때 차라리 다 울어둘 걸

그때 이미 나라는 건 네겐 끝이었다는 건
나만 몰랐었던 이야기

A Story I Didn't Know

You really had forgotten everything
Seeing your face looking at me so pleasantly

Only then did it begin to hurt vaguely
The wound that had not been able to heal

The tears do not flow
Because separation is not such a big deal
It's so insignificant

That there is no such thing as a good separation in the world
If I had known, I would have cried it all out then

That even then, I was already over for you
A story I didn't know

It wasn't love
It was just the time you stayed by my side

Now I think I finally understand
Why you just had to be sorry

I guess I was just too excited
Expecting you even as you were leaving
How ridiculous was I?

That there is no such thing as a good separation in the world
If I had known, I would have cried it all out then

That even then, I was already over for you
A story I didn't know
