흘러가는 것 중, 이건 only one part
heul-reo-ga-neun geos jung, i-geon only one part
적어도 돼 줄거라 믿어, 이거 bookmark
jeok-eo-do dwae jul-geo-ra mit-eo, i-geo bookmark
흐름에 그대로 놔둘 때가 더 자연스러워
heu-reum-e geu-dae-ro nwa-dul ttae-ga deo ja-yeon-seu-reo-wo
But I don't want this to sound like we're about to depart
I'll be your home
If I ever get lost 티는 안 내려고 하겠지만
If I ever get lost ti-neun an nae-ryeo-go ha-gess-ji-man
I'ma call back 부르는 내 tone을, 잊지 말고 (I'll be your home)
I'ma call back bu-reu-neun nae t-o-n-e-eul, it-ji mal-go (I'll be your home)
