Paroles et traduction PSY feat. PARK JUNG-HYUN - What Should Have Been

What Should Have Been

내가 그때 널 잡았더라면 너와 나 지금보다 행복했을까
마지막에 널 안아줬다면 어땠을까
나의 옛사랑 옛사람
가끔 난 너의 안부를 속으로 묻는다
그리고는 혼자 씩 웃는다
희미해진 그때의 기억을 빈 잔에 붓는다
잔이 차고 넘친다
기억을 마신다
그 기억은 쓰지만 맛있다
그 시절 우리의 도수는 거의 웬만한 독주보다 높았어
보고 또 봐도 보고팠어
사랑을 해도 해도 서로에게 고팠어
목말랐어
참 우리 좋았었는데 헤어질 일이 없었는데
왜 그랬을까 그땐 사랑이 뭔지 몰라서
사랑이 사랑인줄 몰랐어
혼자서 그려본다
헤어지지 않았더라면
어땠을까 (내가 그때 널)
어땠을까 (잡았더라면)
어땠을까 (너와 나 지금보다 행복했을까)
어땠을까 (마지막에 널)
어땠을까 (안아줬다면)
어땠을까 (너와 나 지금까지 함께 했을까)
둘이 같이 꼴딱 밤새 맞이한 아침
홀딱 잠 깨 창문을 닫지
우리는 마치 창 밖의 참새처럼 잠들기 싫어하는 애처럼 초등학생처럼
아무도 없는데 아무도 모르게 아무도 못 듣게 귓속에 말을 해
그 시절 우리의 온도는 거의 저 밑에 적도 보다 높았어
성났어 감기도 아닌 것이 열났어
온몸의 어디든 귀를 갖다 대면은 맥박소리가
귓가에 그날의 너의 소리가
왜 그랬을까 그땐 사랑이 뭔지 몰라서
사랑이 사랑인 줄 몰랐어
혼자서 그려본다
헤어지지 않았더라면
어땠을까 (내가 그때 널)
어땠을까 (잡았더라면)
어땠을까 (너와 나 지금보다 행복했을까)
어땠을까 (마지막에 널)
어땠을까 (안아줬다면)
어땠을까 (너와 나 지금까지 함께 했을까)
눈앞에서 살진 않지만
눈감으면 살고 있다
다른 사람 품 안에서
같은 추억 하면서
내 곁에 있진 않지만
내 몸이 기억하고 있다
다른 사람 품 안에서
같은 추억 하면서
왜 그랬을까 그땐 사랑이 뭔지 몰라서
사랑이 사랑인 줄 몰랐어
혼자서 그려본다
헤어지지 않았더라면
어땠을까 (내가 그때 널)
어땠을까 (잡았더라면)
어땠을까 (너와 나 지금보다 행복했을까)
어땠을까 (마지막에 널)
어땠을까 (안아줬다면)
어땠을까 (너와 나 지금까지 함께 했을까)

What Should Have Been

If I had held onto you then, would you and I be happier now?
What if I had embraced you one last time?
My old love, my past lover,
Sometimes, I silently ask about your well-being.
And then I smile to myself.
I pour the faded memories of that time into an empty glass.
The glass overflows.
I drink the memories.
The memories are bitter, yet delicious.
Back then, our love's intensity was almost stronger than any liquor.
I longed to see you again and again.
Even though we loved, we still craved each other.
We were thirsty.
We were so good together, there was no reason to part.
Why did it happen? Back then, we didn't know what love was.
We didn't know love was love.
I imagine it alone.
If we hadn't broken up,
What would it have been like? (If I had held onto you)
What would it have been like? (If I had held you)
What would it have been like? (Would you and I be happier now?)
What would it have been like? (If I had embraced you one last time)
What would it have been like? (If I had held you)
What would it have been like? (Would you and I still be together?)
The mornings we greeted together, staying up all night,
Wide awake, we wouldn't close the window.
Like sparrows outside the window, like children who hate sleep, like elementary school kids,
With no one around, secretly, inaudibly, I whisper in your ear.
Back then, our love's heat was almost hotter than the equator down below.
I was angry, I had a fever even without a cold.
Wherever I placed my ear on my body, I could hear the pulse,
In my ears, the sound of your voice from that day.
Why did it happen? Back then, we didn't know what love was.
We didn't know love was love.
I imagine it alone.
If we hadn't broken up,
What would it have been like? (If I had held onto you)
What would it have been like? (If I had held you)
What would it have been like? (Would you and I be happier now?)
What would it have been like? (If I had embraced you one last time)
What would it have been like? (If I had held you)
What would it have been like? (Would you and I still be together?)
You don't live in front of my eyes,
But when I close my eyes, you're alive.
In someone else's arms,
Sharing the same memories.
You're not by my side,
But my body remembers.
In someone else's arms,
Sharing the same memories.
Why did it happen? Back then, we didn't know what love was.
We didn't know love was love.
I imagine it alone.
If we hadn't broken up,
What would it have been like? (If I had held onto you)
What would it have been like? (If I had held you)
What would it have been like? (Would you and I be happier now?)
What would it have been like? (If I had embraced you one last time)
What would it have been like? (If I had held you)
What would it have been like? (Would you and I still be together?)
