The world spinning around me
is slowing down now.
Only when I look at you,
it picks up speed.
In a brand-new way,
by falling in one-sided love,
I am growing strong.
I am growing strong.
Even though I'm just a teenage boy,
I'm turning into a boss..... Hey buddy!
At a height of five foot six,
a walking thermometer passes by.
Every time she crosses my path,
my body heat rises too.
With your ponytail hair,
you steal me away.
With your black and white eyes,
you knock me off my feet.
It all started at nineteen,
a 90s-style love bloomed.
All the storage on my Android phone
got filled up with her photos.
It all started at nineteen,
a 90s-style love bloomed.
Deep inside my heart,
a love song began to play.
I will never leave you,
even if you make mistake after mistake.
I will keep checking you out,
even if you go stand far away.
I will hold it close and listen,
even if you keep scolding me and walking off.
I will never leave you,
no matter what mistake you make.
A gorgeous angel,
she walks right past me.
With a quiet little smile,
she completely knocks me out.
With a mysterious look,
she says so many things.
Down a difficult path,
she leads me along.
Hey girl,
just turn around and look at me!
Just this once,
please say yes before you go!
I will never leave you,
even if you make mistake after mistake.
I will keep checking you out,
even if you go stand far away.
I will hold it close and listen,
even if you keep scolding me and walking off.
I will never leave you,
no matter what mistake you make.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song depicts a youthful, one-sided love story of a teenager who falls deeply for a girl he sees around. He describes how her presence affects him physically and mentally—slowing time down or speeding his heart up like a thermometer rising. He compares his classic, romantic feelings to a sweet 90s-style romance, even though it takes place in the modern age of Android phones and full digital storage space. Throughout the track, the protagonist promises unwavering loyalty, asserting that no matter how much she ignores, scolds, or makes mistakes, he will never give up on loving her and hoping for her nod of approval.
