Lyrics
The sidewalk slows the second I catch your eye,
Something tilts the axis and I don't know why.
I clocked the coffee cup, the jacket, the bling,
I already picked the church, already picked the ring.
그건 다 몰라
[Geugeon da molla.]
[I don't know any of that.]
Six years compressed into a crosswalk,
A whole first fight, before we've had a single talk.
Maybe it's off, maybe it's true,
Maybe I love the thought of you.
The light's still red. I've got more time to see
A whole shared life, before it's even real.
Desire unrequited, running warm and wide,
Already fully loving you, already by your side.
I already know the sound of you calling my name,
Already always certain we'd never be the same.
Desire unrequited. The stop sign hasn't turned,
I'm already yearning everything I've never earned.
Maybe you'd go cold the moment that I stayed,
Maybe I'm quiet, but you want to be played.
I see us arguing over something dumb,
Guess which versions of these keep me up some.
I gave you patience that never went low,
Somehow giving reasons that made you go
그래, 그럴지도
[Geurae, geureoljido.]
[Yeah, maybe so.]
We divorced before the lights turned green,
Grieved a marriage we've never seen.
Maybe it's dark, maybe it's true,
I'm scared of a life made up too.
The light's still red, I've got to steal,
To lose it all before it's real.
Desire unrequited, running warm and wide,
Already fully loving you, already by your side.
I already know the sound of you calling my name,
Already always certain we'd never be the same.
Desire unrequited. The stop sign hasn't turned,
I'm already yearning everything I've never earned.
I'm already yearning everything I've never earned.
Half a second felt a little long,
A glance just might turn into song.
I felt it moving through my hands and feet,
Nowhere to put a life so incomplete.
I tap this rhythm out against my thigh,
The whole thing lives and dies inside my mind.
There's no eye contact; no hi nor goodbye.
Just two strangers in a space built for sighs.
Desire unrequited, running warm and wide,
Still fully loving you and ever by your side.
I still know the sound of you calling my name,
Still always certain we'd never be the same.
Desire unrequited. The stop sign finally turned.
Now I carry every version of the lives I've yearned.
Some other me, in some other now,
Still standing here, not knowing how.
Desire unrequited...
Desire unrequited...
