[K-pop] “Love Always Runs Away” / Lim Young-woong

Korean Lyrics & English Translation

• 눈물이 난다 이 길을 걸으면
  Tears fall when I walk on this road
• 그 사람 손길이 자꾸 생각이 난다
  I keep thinking of that person’s hand
  I keep thinking of that person’s touch
• 붙잡지 못하고 가슴만 떨었지
  I couldn’t hold onto it, only my heart trembled
• 내 아름답던 사람아
  My beautiful person

• 사랑이란 게 참 쓰린 거더라
  Love is really bitter
• 잡으려 할수록 더 멀어지더라
  The more I try to catch it, the farther away it gets
• 이별이란 게 참 쉬운 거더라
  Saying goodbye is so easy
  Farewell is a very easy thing
• 내 잊지 못할 사람아
  My unforgettable person

• 사랑아 왜 도망가
  My love, why are you running away?
• 수줍은 아이처럼
  Like a shy child
• 행여 놓아버릴까 봐
  I’m afraid I’ll let it go
• 꼭 움켜쥐지만
  I grab hold of it
• 그리움이 쫓아 사랑은 늘 도망가
  Longing chases, love always runs away
• 잠시 쉬어가면 좋을 텐데
  I wish it could take a break

• 바람이 분다 옷깃을 세워도
  The wind blows, even if I raise my collar
• 차가운 이별의 눈물이 차올라
  Tears of cold farewell fill me up
• 잊지 못해서 가슴에 사무친
  I can’t forget it, so my heart aches
  I can’t forget it, so it pierced me to the heart
• 내 소중했던 사람아
  My dear person

• 사랑아 왜 도망가
  My love, why are you running away?
• 수줍은 아이처럼
  Like a shy child
• 행여 놓아버릴까 봐
  I’m afraid I’ll let it go
• 꼭 움켜쥐지만
  I grab hold of it
• 그리움이 쫓아 사랑은 늘 도망가
  Longing chases, love always runs away
• 잠시 쉬어가면 좋을 텐데
  I wish it could take a break

• 기다림도 애태움도 다 버려야 하는데
  I have to let go of all the waiting and sorrow
• 무얼 찾아 이 길을 서성일까
  What am I looking for and wandering this road?
• 무얼 찾아 여기 있나
  What am I looking for here

• 사랑아 왜 도망가
  My love, why are you running away?
• 수줍은 아이처럼
  Like a shy child
• 행여 놓아버릴까 봐
  I’m afraid I’ll let it go
• 꼭 움켜쥐지만
  I grab hold of it
• 그리움이 쫓아 사랑은 늘 도망가
  Longing chases, love always runs away

• 잠시 쉬어가면 좋을 텐데
  I wish it could take a break
• 잠시 쉬어가면 좋을 텐데
  I wish it could take a break
