Hold my hand (HAN) (English Translation) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Countless battles with trials and errors
Nights covered with tears piling up
At the end of today, smile
Like the days set ablaze
I run to this end of story, it won’t be a sad ending
This final scene will surely have a huge twist
But what if all this anticipation falls flat?
I hope this nightmarish anxiety disappears when I wake up, and it all turns out to be a dream
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I see you cry
I feel like drowning in the dark
You said it’s fine, but no, I’m not
[Chorus]
‘Cause all I want is you, not your tears
Until they dry completely
I wanna make you the happiest one, no fear
So baby, hold my hand now
[Post-Chorus]
Woah, woah-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Baby, hold my hand now
Woah, woah-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Baby, hold my hand now
[Verse 2]
Thoughts take deep root, triggering all of the forgotten memories
I suffocate in the emotions that infiltrate me like bacteria, consuming me
What do you expect from me?
Even the divine can’t deny the past I worked so hard for
Even if you leave me, you’ll return to me, as it’s destined
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I see you cry
I feel like drowning in the dark
You said it’s fine, but no, I’m not
[Chorus]
‘Cause all I want is you, not your tears
Until they dry completely
I wanna make you the happiest one, no fear
So baby, hold my hand now
[Post-Chorus]
Woah, woah-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Baby, hold my hand now
Woah, woah-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Baby, hold my hand now
[Bridge]
Ba-baby, hold my hand now
Ba-baby, hold my hand
[Chorus]
‘Cause all I want is you, not your tears
Until they dry completely
I wanna make you the happiest one, no fear
So baby, hold my hand now
‘Cause all I want is you, not your tears
(Tears, your tears, your tears)
I wanna make you the happiest one, no fear
So baby, hold my hand now
[Post-Chorus]
Woah, woah-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Baby, hold my hand now
Woah, woah-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Baby, hold my hand now
