Lyrics of “Moonlight Shadows” by EXO

[“Moonlight Shadows” 가사]

[Verse 1: Chanyeol, D.O.]
짙은 어둠 아래 깊은 고요 속에
저 달만이 너 하나를 비추고
찬 공기 위로 다정히 어루만져
아름다운 실루엣을 그려내

[Pre-Chorus: Lay, Kai, Suho]
We’re just vibing
찾아내는 your lips 마주 닿는 눈빛
There’s no hiding
감춰 놓은 맘을 난 원해 (Ooh)

[Chorus: D.O, Suho, Sehun]
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized
깊이 새긴
너의 그림자
어둠에 가려져도
서로에게 물든 밤
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized

[Verse 2: Kai, Sehun, Chanyeol & Sehun & Suho]
나른해진 이 느낌이 좋아
다가서지 않는다면 몰라
기꺼이 우리 (I can’t deny it)
Come a bit closer (좀 더 가까이)
거리를 좁혀가 경계를 허물어

[Pre-Chorus: D.O, Suho, Lay]
We’re just vibing
이끌리는 손길 번져가는 온기
There’s no hiding
감춰 놓은 맘을 난 원해 (널 그려내)

[Chorus: Chanyeol, D.O, Lay]
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized
깊이 새긴
너의 그림자

어둠에 가려져도
서로에게 물든 밤
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized

[Bridge: Sehun, Chanyeol, Kai & D.O.]
손끝에 감긴 부드러운 머릿결
모든 감각에 네 손길이 느껴져
I’ve been dreaming ’bout you in the daylight
널 가득 안고 싶어 더 빈틈없이
Every touch, every kiss got me in my feelings, babe
너와 내 사이에
모든 빛은 꺼둔 채
Holding on me, I got you ’til the morning light
날 끌어당긴
널 부정할 수 없어 난

[Chorus: Suho, Lay, Chanyeol]
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized
깊이 새긴
너의 그림자
어둠에 가려져도
서로에게 물든 밤
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized

[Outro: Lay & Kai, D.O.]
Ooh-oh-whoo, ooh-oh-whoo
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized
Ooh-oh-whoo, ooh-oh-whoo
Moonlight shadows got me hypnotized
