I look into your eyes and try to read them
Most love songs are about the words exchanged. This one is about the words that aren't, and the specific exhaustion of trying to translate a look into a meaning. It captures the particular loneliness of being with someone and still feeling like you're reading a language you don't fully understand.
"I look into your eyes and try to read them" does all the work. It's not about grand declarations; it's about the strain of guessing, the fear of being wrong about what you see there. The song lives in that gap between what's felt and what gets said, and those words are the quiet, anxious bridge.
It's the core gesture of the song, a quiet, searching act that admits how little we can ever really know about what's going on inside someone else, even when we're looking right at them.
The way the melody hangs on 'I look into your eyes' feels like holding a breath, waiting for something to land that never quite does.

어제는 내가 정말 미안해
오늘은 내가 더 잘해볼게
우리는 깊은 대화가 필요해
그러다 문득 고개를 돌려
너의 눈치를 살피다 보면
사실은 맘이 개운하지가 않아
알다가도 모르겠는 너의 마음이 뭔지
표정은 왜 그랬는지도
물어볼라면 (물어보면)
이해하기 힘든 웃음만 (웃음만)
솔직히 얘기를 해줘야 알지
우우우
이렇게 하면 너는 어떤지
저렇게 해야 니가 좋은지
우리는 진한 대화가 필요해
혹시나 아무 말도 없다가
어설픈 시간만 보내다가
갑자기 나를 버릴 것만 같아
알다가도 모르겠는 너의 마음이 뭔지
표정은 왜 그랬는지도
물어볼라면 (물어보면)
알아듣기 힘든 농담만(농담만)
솔직히 얘기를 해줘야 알지
사랑한다는 말이 뭐 지금 그리 대수야
안고 입맞추는 일도
알다가도 모르겠는 너의 마음이
도무지 어떤 맘인지
무슨 말을 하고 싶은지
얘기를 다 해줘야 알지
우우우
