Should Be – HAECHAN (해찬) (English Translation)
[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Maybe things would’ve been different
Different takes, another ending
Would some words have hurt a little less?
In this drama, every day felt like a fleeting moment
Our memories hug me again and again in dreams
I tried not to turn back, but I couldn’t
Is that empty space beside me… you?
[Chorus]
I can’t be done, unlike you (Why?)
I still don’t have the strength to let you go, why? (Why?)
Do I want you back? At the end of this long phrase
I absentmindedly repeat it again… dot, dot, dot
I pray that your many sleepless nights are like mine
Should be, should be hurt?
Every day I cry but my tears run dry
Now I know, I should’ve never said goodbye
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah, yeah
Yeah
[Verse 2]
The space where your name was written is blank
The words blurred by tears, I can’t even recognize them
I can’t say it like a habit anymore
(Love you, baby, love you, baby)
Our special days feel like a lonely anniversary
I wished “I do, I do,” such a stupid story
Don’t make me fall in love
If only we could turn back time
[Chorus]
I can’t be done, unlike you (Why?)
I still don’t have the strength to let you go, why? (Why?)
Do I want you back? At the end of this long phrase
I absentmindedly repeat it again… dot, dot, dot
I pray that your many sleepless nights are like mine
Should be, should be hurt?
Every day I cry but my tears run dry
Now I know, I should’ve never said goodbye
[Bridge]
This version of me right now
Feels like it could be your last
Even more, like a storm is coming
A night drowned in waves
If you still remember the promises we made to be eternal
Then you should be here
In my world, there’s no one else love is true
I realized that was a lie
[Chorus]
There’ll be none, unlike you (Why?)
I have no way to fill this emptiness but with you, how?
Can I take you back? At the end of this repeating page (Somehow, baby)
I absentmindedly stare at the period… dot, dot, dot (Bring me back, back)
I pray again, hoping that among countless stars, it reaches you
Should be, should be we
Every day I pray and cry
Still wondering could we ever be more?
[Outro]
Should be, yeah, yeah
