Lyrics & meaning
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.
