이제 안녕! (Farewell for now!) (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Verse]
This part paints a quiet, emotional moment. The untouched iced tea with melted ice shows how distracted and lost she feels. She’s just staring at it, not really present. Their conversation feels heavy, full of sighs, and even when she tries to keep talking, the other person doesn’t respond like before. It shows how distant and disconnected things have become without even realizing when it all started.

[Pre-Chorus]
She’s starting to let go of someone’s hand, which might seem like the end but feels like a kind of love too—one that comes from accepting the truth. Asking them to stay longer doesn’t mean anything now because she sees they no longer look at her with the same feelings.

[Chorus]
She watches their presence slowly disappear, like a shadow fading away, and all she’s left with is a tired, broken heart. Even though their story might feel pointless now, she still remembers how beautiful it used to be—like gentle, flowing waves. But now, that beautiful past is just a goodbye.

[Pre-Chorus]
She’s letting go again, realizing that sometimes love means knowing when to stop holding on. She remembers a summer where everything felt better because they were together. Now, in the same season, she stands alone, looking around and hoping to find the person who used to be there with her.

[Chorus]
Once again, she sees the shadow slipping away and feels her heart losing color. Even though everything may seem meaningless and truly over, she can’t help but look back at the beautiful days they shared. Those memories now turn into a farewell, even if it comes with a soft “hello” to the goodbye.

[Bridge]
It feels like they’ve been through so much already, and she’s holding tightly to her tired heart, hoping they understood how much it all meant. As the day winds down, like the sun setting, she’s still standing there—unmoving, waiting, still caring—even if nothing is the same anymore.

[Chorus]
She sees their shadow disappearing again, and all that remains is the worn-out heart she carries. She quietly asks that they at least keep their memories together in their heart—that would be enough for her. She compares them to a movie gone wrong, where only the ending plays out, and it’s without the person she loved. Even though it may seem pointless or final, she still treasures how beautiful their past once was.
