Day After Day (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
A cheerful sound to start the song.

[Verse 1]
The singer wakes up thinking about someone special and the first thing they do is call them. Every morning feels the same, full of greetings and wanting to spend time together. They feel incomplete without this person and really need their love. There’s a sense of excitement and longing as they wait for attention. The person checks in on the singer daily, which makes them feel cared for and reassured that everything will be okay. Their thoughts are consumed by this connection, and it feels like a constant need to be close and share love.

[Pre-Chorus]
Seeing this person makes the singer nervous and almost frozen. They feel shy and hesitant, unable to fully express the truth. Still, they go through these moments together and are asked about their feelings repeatedly, which shows a playful and ongoing closeness in their relationship.

[Chorus]
The singer thinks about this person day after day and constantly wishes for them. Their feelings repeat over and over, showing that the person is always on their mind. They want reassurance and attention from them, wanting the same affection to be expressed repeatedly so it feels real and comforting.

[Verse 2]
The singer compares the person to chemicals that make them feel happy and relaxed, like dopamine and melatonin. They feel completely controlled by their emotions toward this person and describe themselves as small and helpless, like a marmot. Messages from them are like a drug, and waiting for replies makes the singer anxious. Even when they check their phone multiple times, the reply is the same, but they can’t stop looking. At night, they know messages may disappear, yet they cling to the connection like a child. They want to call this person constantly, day and night, because it brings comfort and joy.

[Pre-Chorus]
Being around this person again makes the singer physically nervous and almost frozen. They don’t fully reveal their feelings but still go through these emotional ups and downs. The routine of being asked about their emotions continues day after day, showing a mix of attachment and vulnerability.

[Chorus]
The singer is caught in an ongoing loop of thinking about this person every day. Their feelings are strong and inescapable, making them constantly want attention and reassurance. They hope to hear the same affection repeated, which makes them feel safe and connected.

[Outro]
The singer’s thoughts are completely taken over by this person. Even when they receive a reply, they hesitate, wondering if they should act differently, but ultimately they cannot control their feelings and give in to their longing. Their emotions are persistent and irresistible.
