Step By Step Lyrics

[Verse 1: Sungho, Myung Jaehyun]
유일하게 안아 주던
봄은 눈치 없이 더워지고
오피스 거리 가득한 간판
잠에 들 기미 없이 starry night

[Pre-Chorus: Leehan, Riwoo]
점점 더 잦아지는 비에
아스팔트 사이 흙 내음
이유 없이 올라온 뭉클함에
한여름 밤을 노래해

[Chorus: Woonhak, Taesan]
Step by step, 떠나지 마 이 여름아
부서져도 좋을 기억을 줘
Step by step, 슬퍼지려 하기 전엔
내게 다시 돌아와

[Verse 2: Riwoo, Woonhak]
Five, six, seven, 808 bass
리듬에 맞춰 (Yeah-eh), 황홀함에 drive in (Yeah-eh)
아름다운 melody
Romeo는 아니어도 오늘을 달에 약속해

[Pre-Chorus: Leehan, Myung Jaehyun]
점점 더 잦아지는 비에
부서진 파도 소리
이유 없이 올라온 뭉클함에
한여름 밤을 노래해

[Chorus: Taesan, Sungho]
Step by step, 떠나지 마 이 여름아
부서져도 좋을 기억을 줘
Step by step, 슬퍼지려 하기 전엔
내게 다시 돌아와

[Outro: Leehan, Riwoo]
아지랑이 길 가득한
경적 소리마저 뜨거워
아스라이 남긴 추억이
한여름 밤을 노래해

Step By Step Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1: Sungho, Myung Jaehyun]
Sungho and Myung Jaehyun open the track with a reflection on change and emotional comfort. The warmth of spring, once nurturing, is now overwhelming, symbolizing how familiarity can unexpectedly shift. The juxtaposition of crowded city streets with a sleepless, starlit night suggests internal conflict—being surrounded by noise yet consumed by introspective quiet. These lines set a tone of gentle melancholy and deep contemplation.

[Pre-Chorus: Leehan, Riwoo]
Leehan and Riwoo tap into the sensory details of a summer evening—rainfall, earthy scents, and a rising lump in the throat. The “뭉클함” they reference points to a sudden wave of emotion, possibly from a memory or realization. Singing to the midsummer night becomes a metaphor for expressing feelings that words can’t contain, turning emotion into melody.

[Chorus: Woonhak, Taesan]
Woonhak and Taesan plead with summer not to end, asking it to leave behind beautiful memories even if they break in the process. The “step by step” phrase becomes both a musical rhythm and an emotional progression—highlighting the delicate process of holding on while time moves forward. The chorus captures the essence of yearning and vulnerability at the edge of change.

[Verse 2: Riwoo, Woonhak]
Riwoo and Woonhak bring a more rhythmic and dreamy mood to the second verse. With a reference to the “808 bass” and driving in bliss, they depict a fleeting moment of happiness tied to sound and movement. Woonhak’s promise to the moon, despite not being Romeo, suggests sincerity over perfection—choosing emotional truth over grand gestures, and anchoring the moment in present beauty.

[Pre-Chorus: Leehan, Myung Jaehyun]
Leehan and Myung Jaehyun revisit the pre-chorus with new imagery—this time focusing on the sound of broken waves instead of the smell of soil. The consistent “뭉클함” remains, deepening the sense of emotional buildup. Again, music becomes a vessel to carry the weight of memory and longing into the warm night.

[Chorus: Taesan, Sungho]
Taesan and Sungho reprise the chorus with renewed intensity. Their voices embody a desire to freeze time, fearing the sadness that comes with change. The plea to receive even shattered memories reflects the emotional honesty at the heart of the song—preferring beautiful impermanence over forgetting altogether.

[Outro: Leehan, Riwoo]
Leehan and Riwoo close the song with imagery of a shimmering summer street filled with heat and sound. Even mundane things like honking horns take on poetic meaning under the lens of nostalgia. The memories left behind—“아스라이 남긴 추억”—softly echo into the summer night, ending the song on a wistful, haunting note.
