Lyrics, Cara Baca & English Translation
I'm standing on the edge, 난 가장 높은 곳에서
I'm standing on the edge, nan ga-jang nop-eun gos-e-seo
Everything is upside down
두렵지 않아, break it down
du-ryeop-ji an-a, break it down
당당히 서 있어, with my toes
dang-dang-hi seo iss-eo, with my toes
Everybody listen up now
No, 더 이상은, no turnin' back
No, deo i-sang-eun, no turnin' back
No turnin' back, no turnin' back
No, don't be scared, 아슬하게, 아찔하게
No, don't be scared, a-seul-ha-ge, a-jjil-ha-ge
두 손을 펼쳐, up in the air
du son-eul pyeol-chyeo, up in the air
Up in the air, up in the air
망설이지 마, 뭐 어때?
mang-seol-i-ji ma, mwo eo-ttae?
When I move
너의 body를 흔들어봐, when I move
neo-ui b-o-d-y-reul heun-deul-eo-bwa, when I move
When I move
더 자유롭게 breakin' all the rules
deo ja-yu-rop-ge breakin' all the rules
When I move, 리듬에 맡겨, 느낀 그대로
When I move, ri-deum-e mat-gyeo, neu-kkin geu-dae-ro
이런 move, 나의 move
i-reon move, na-ui move
Oh, when I move
Oh, what's the problem?
점점 빠져드는 이 공간의 flow
jeom-jeom ppa-jyeo-deu-neun i gong-gan-ui flow
나조차도 어림잡지 못해, out of my control
na-jo-cha-do eo-rim-jap-ji mos-hae, out of my control
홀린 듯 몸을 맡겨 이 끌림이 싫진 않잖아
hol-rin deus mom-eul mat-gyeo i kkeul-rim-i sil-jin an-jan-a
그치? 나를 따라, 너를 던져봐 (너를 던져봐)
geu-chi? na-reul tta-ra, neo-reul deon-jyeo-bwa (neo-reul deon-jyeo-bwa)
No, 더 이상은, no turnin' back
No, deo i-sang-eun, no turnin' back

Up in the air, up in the air
망설이지 마, we just dance

이런 move, 나의 move
i-reon move, na-ui move
Oh, when I move
다시 move again, we waited for this time
da-si move again, we waited for this time
아찔하게 흔들어, roller coaster ride
a-jjil-ha-ge heun-deul-eo, roller coaster ride
아스팔트에서 피운 꽃, strong, survive
a-seu-pal-teu-e-seo pi-un kkot, strong, survive
춤춰봐, 더 자유롭게 미쳐봐
chum-chwo-bwa, deo ja-yu-rop-ge mi-chyeo-bwa
Shake your body, bounce your body
왔어 우리에게, 너무 좋은 날이 (날이)
wass-eo u-ri-e-ge, neo-mu jot-eun nal-i (nal-i)
Move your body, 들려, 내 말이?
Move your body, deul-ryeo, nae mal-i?
네가 원했던 이 순간이
ne-ga won-haess-deon i sun-gan-i
멈추지 마, 계속 on my way

I'll never look back, oh, babe
움츠렸던 마음을 녹여
um-cheu-ryeoss-deon ma-eum-eul nok-yeo
어제의 너를 잊어, moving on baby
eo-je-ui neo-reul it-eo, moving on baby
When I move (move, oh-oh)
너의 body를 흔들어봐, when I move
neo-ui b-o-d-y-reul heun-deul-eo-bwa, when I move
When I move (and I move, and I move)
더 자유롭게 breakin' all the rules
deo ja-yu-rop-ge breakin' all the rules
When I move (move, ooh-ooh)
리듬에 맡겨 느낀 그대로
ri-deum-e mat-gyeo neu-kkin geu-dae-ro
이런 move, 나의 move

Oh, when I move
When I move, 끝까지 손을 뻗어, when I move
When I move, kkeut-kka-ji son-eul ppeot-eo, when I move
When I move
We goin' higher, breakin' all the rules
