Lyrics and translation Kang Seung Yoon - WERE WE?

WERE WE?

누가 내 기억에 입김을 불었나?
아니면 실수로 물을 쏟았나?
고작 한 달이 십 년 전 일 같아
아니 내가 벌써 이럴 나이인가?

그곳 그것이 떠올라도
그때 그 느낌
뭐 이런 게 다 기억이 안 나
내가 처음 눈물 흘린
영화 줄거리처럼 oh

후회 없는 사랑 후
이별에 따른 후련함일까?
익숙하고 편한 게
그저 좋았던 내 착각일까?
다른 사람들도 다 이렇게
금방 아픔이 식는 걸까?
Somebody tell me

우리 사랑 뜨거웠던가요 (oh woah)
그게 아님 따뜻했었나요 (oh woah)
그것도 아님 미지근했던 건가
이리도 쉽게 잊혀져버리면 나
허무해요

소나기처럼 울어서 그런가
머릿속 와이퍼가 고장이 났나
번지고 얼룩진 추억 속의 나
얼굴 표정이 자꾸 일렁인다

그때 그곳을 찾아가도
이상하게도 아프지 않아
기억이 안 나
마치 어릴 적
옆집 애 이름처럼 oh

후회 없는 사랑 후
이별에 따른 후련함일까? (후련함일까)
익숙하고 편한 게 그저 좋았던
내 착각일까? (내 착각일까)
다른 사람들도 다 이렇게
금방 아픔이 식는 걸까?
Somebody tell me

우리 사랑 뜨거웠던가요 (oh woah)
그게 아님 따뜻했었나요 (oh woah)
그것도 아님 미지근했던 건가
이리도 쉽게 잊혀져버리면 나
허무해요

적어도 이 계절이 다시
한 바퀴 돌아올 때까진
너를 앓고 싶었는데
이런 것마저 내 맘대로
안 되는 나의 꼴이 oh woah
좀 쓰리고 서운하고도
우스워

우리 사랑하긴 했었나요
아니 좋아하긴 했었나요
그것도 아님 외로움에 지쳐서
만나버린 누군가 였나요 oh woah

우리 사랑 뜨거웠던가요 (oh woah)
그게 아님 따뜻했었나요 (oh woah)
그것도 아님 미지근했던 건가 (oh woah)
이리도 쉽게 잊혀져버리면 나 (oh woah)
허무해요

WERE WE?

Who fanned the flames of my memory?
Or did you accidentally spill water on it?
A mere month feels like a decade ago
Is this the age I’m supposed to be?

Although I remember the place and the thing,
The feeling back then,
I don’t remember anything about it.
My first time shedding tears,
Just like a movie plot, oh

After a love without any regrets,
Is this the ease that comes with a breakup?
The familiarity and comfort,
Was it just a misconception of mine that things were good?
Do others feel like this?
Do heartaches fade this easily?
Somebody tell me

Was our love ever hot (oh woah)?
Was it not and just warm (oh woah)?
Or was that not it and it was lukewarm?
If I could just forget about you this easily
It’s absurd

Is it because I cried like a downpour?
Did the wipers in my head break down?
The faint and smudged me in my memories
My facial expressions keep flickering

If I were to return to that place,
It’s weird how I don’t feel any pain,
I don’t have any memories,
Just like in my childhood,
The name of the neighbor’s kid, oh

After a love without any regrets,
Is this the ease that comes with a breakup (the ease)?
The familiarity and comfort,
Was it just a misconception of mine (my misconception)?
Do others feel like this?
Do heartaches fade this easily?
Somebody tell me

Was our love ever hot (oh woah)?
Was it not and just warm (oh woah)?
Or was that not it and it was lukewarm?
If I could just forget about you this easily
It’s absurd

At least until this season
Comes around again,
I wished I could restrain my aching heart
But even this wish I cannot control,
My pathetic state, oh woah
It’s a little bitter and heartbreaking
And it’s funny

Were we ever in love?
Or did we just have feelings?
Or was it because we were tired of being lonely,
Somebody we just happened to meet, oh woah

Was our love ever hot (oh woah)?
Was it not and just warm (oh woah)?
Or was that not it and it was lukewarm (oh woah)?
If I could just forget about you this easily (oh woah)
It’s absurd
