Lyrics

Original

아무리 적응해도 아닌 것 같아 네가 웃고 있는 게 누가 봐도 어색해 뭔가 너무 복잡해 넌 몰라 몰라 알고 있는 것 같지만 뭔가 달라 달라 네 주변을 잘 찾아봐 웃으면서 갔던 놀이공원에서 많은 추억도 쌓고 그랬는데 뭔가 변했어 Something change 옛날에 나의 추억은 시간이 멈춰버린 Neverland 뭔가 예전엔, 사소한 것까지 말했었던 너였었는데 멀어진 느낌 몰라 왜 이래 오히려 내가 묻고 싶은 질문이야 뭔가 좀 달라진 듯이 나쁘진 않은데 어색해 너를 볼 때 뭔가 네가 아닌 듯해 예전에 네가 그리워 지려 해 벌써 변한 네 모습 적응 안돼서 어딘가 달라지고 있어 아무리 숨겨도 다 볼 수 있는 걸 다른 사람과 얘기를 하는 것 같아 어색해져 너와 있을 때 대체 어딜 간 거야 너의 그 예쁜 미소 워낙 잘 웃던 너라서 더 그리워져 내겐 다 보여 안 그런 척 어색한 미소 밝았던 너라 더 걱정이 돼 널 보고 싶어 널 보고 싶어 행복한 입이 귀에 걸린 널 꼭 볼 수 있어 난 볼 수 있어 내가 알던 너 다운 밝은 모습 또 뭔 생각했니 멍 때리는 그 모습 요즘 따라 자주 보이는 듯해 내 말 듣긴 했니 너 답지 않은 그 모습 지친 내 눈에만 보이는 듯해 어릴 적 너의 단순함이 불과 몇 년 사이에 복잡함으로 폭풍성장해서 널 괴롭히네 좀 더 맘 편히 잡생각 내려놔 그냥 너 걱정돼서 한 말이야 왜 또 째려봐 그런 표정으로 어두운 표정으로 그런 표정으로 쳐다보지 마 그런 표정 지으면 답이 나오나 널 보는 게 두려워지기 싫어 너의 눈을 피하기도 싫어 그니까 끄집어내 보자 좋은 날 어딘가 달라지고 있어 아무리 숨겨도 다 볼 수 있는 걸 다른 사람과 얘기를 하는 것 같아 어색해져 너와 있을 때 잃어버린 날들을 찾고 싶어 달라진 그 모습 바꾸고 싶어 그 말투와 행동 하나하나 달라진 많은 태도 그전엔 어땠는지 생각도 안나 tell me 넌 어땠는지도 다 알고 싶어 시간 지나가며 변했던 모습 너도 알며 모른척했을지도 Tell me what you want babe Tell me what you want babe 다시 널 보고 싶어 대체 어딜 간 거야 너의 그 예쁜 미소 워낙 잘 웃던 너라서 더 그리워져 내겐 다 보여 안 그런 척 어색한 미소 밝았던 너라 더 걱정이 돼 널 보고 싶어 널 보고 싶어 행복한 입이 귀에 걸린 널 꼭 볼 수 있어 난 볼 수 있어 내가 알던 너 다운 밝은 모습

Even if I try to get used to it but I don't think it's you smiling It's awkward to anyone It's kind of too complicated You don't know you seem to know though Something is different carefully look around you At the amusement park we laughed a lot We made a lot of memories Something has changed something change My old memory is like the Neverland where the time has stopped You told me every detail but now I feel estranged I don't know, what's wrong? That's what I want to ask you I think something has changed a bit, It's not bad but awkward When I see you, you feel like a different person I already start to miss the old you I haven't got used to your changes Something is changing Even if you hide it so hard I can see it all I feel like I'm talking to a different person I feel awkward when I'm with you Where is it? Your pretty smile Because you smiled a lot I miss you more I can see it all, your awkward smile pretending everything's fine Because you were so bright I'm worried about you more I miss you I miss you I miss your big happy smile I can definitely see it I can see it The bright side of you the way I used to know What were you thinking again? You're spacing out I often see you doing that these days Did you even listen to me? The way you look that doesn't seem like you I think only I can see it with my tired eyes Your naivety in childhood in just a few years Developed into complexity and is bothering you Take it easy and try not to think the useless stuff I'm just saying this because I'm worried about you Why are you staring at me again? With that look with the dark look don't look at me with that look If you make such a look can you get the answer? I don't want to be afraid of seeing you I don't want to avoid your eyes So let's take out, good days Something is changing Even if you hide it so hard I can see it all I feel like I'm talking to a different person I feel awkward when I'm with you I want to get back my lost days I want to change your changed look The way you talk and act, your changed attitudes I don't remember how you were like, tell me I want to know all about how you were like Over time you've changed Maybe you knew it but pretended you didn't Tell me what you want babe Tell me what you want babe I want to see you again Where is it? your pretty smile Because you smiled a lot I miss you more I can see it all, your awkward smile pretending everything's fine Because you were so bright I'm more worried about you I want to see you I want to see you I miss your big happy smile I can definitely see it I can see it The bright side of you the way I used to know
