AFTER GROWING UP Lyrics English Translation by Lee Seok Hoon
When I quietly look back on those days
Under the blazing summer sky
When my heart was hurt and I fell down
You were there by my side, back in my youth
Your voice that called to me so tenderly
Around the time it started to fade away
I became an adult
And I understood too late
Thank you
To you back then
It was a season so blue
Even now, around this time of year
It comes to find me
Like a petal bloomed by spring
Like a butterfly that took flight, for the longest time
Just by you being there beside me
I felt like I had found my purpose
But when I look back on those days
Under the blazing summer sky
When my heart was hurt and I fell down
You were there by my side, back in my youth
A love that embraced innocence
Left the purity behind
I became an adult
And I understood too late
Thank you
To you back then
Like a midsummer cloud
Like a tree in the shade, every single day
Even in those moments we were together
I think I needed you more than you did
When I quietly look back on those days
Under the blazing summer sky
When my heart was hurt and I fell down
You were there by my side, back in my youth
Your voice that called to me so tenderly
Around the time it started to fade away
I became an adult
And I understood too late
Thank you
Before I knew it, summer passed
A cool breeze announces
The beginning of autumn
A single season
I find myself missing once again
