If (만약에) Lyrics by Taeyeon

IF by Taeyeon

Hello guys. Here I come again with a lyrics from famous Korean Singer, Taeyeon, one member of 9-girls in Girls Generation. This song is about a girl that loves a boy, but she doesn’t dare to say “I Love you” to the boy because she’s afraid that the distance putting them apart might make it even worse. Loving each other but staying away from each other could be very painful. She’s afraid of being away from him.

만약에 내가 간다면
내가 다가간다면
넌 어떻게 생각할까
용기 낼 수 없고
만약에 니가 간다면
니가 떠나간다면
널 어떻게 보내야할지
자꾸 겁이 나는걸

내가 바보같아서
바라볼 수 밖에만 없는건 아마도
외면 할지도 모를 니 마음과 또 그래서
더 멀어질 사이가 될까봐

정말 바보같아서
사랑한다하지 못하는건 아마도
만남뒤에 기다리는 아픔에
슬픈 나날들이 두려워서인가봐

만약에 니가 온다면
니가 다가온다면
난 어떻게 해야만 할지
정말 알수 없는걸
내가 바보같아서
바라볼 수 밖에만 없는건 아마도
외면 할지도 모를 니 마음과
또 그래서
더 멀어질 사이가 될까봐

정말 바보같아서
사랑한다하지 못하는건 아마도
만남 뒤에 기다리는 아픔에
슬픈 나날들이 두려워서인가봐

내가 바보같아서
사랑한다하지 못하는건 아마도
만남 뒤에 기다리는 아픔에
슬픈 나날들이 두려워서인가봐

If i were to go
If i were to get close to you
What would you think?
I don’t have the courage.
If you were to go,
If you were to leave.
I don’t know how to send you away
It keeps hanging on my mind

I know i am a fool and can only watch you from afar
Your heart may look away from me…
And so we could even become strangers
Just like a fool i can’t even say that i love you because …
We’re afraid the wait that comes upon us
After we meet will be painful and sad.

If you were to come
To come near me.
What would i do ?
I really don’t know
Because im like a fool.
Even though i know looking is all i can do
Your heart may look away from me
And so we could even become strangers

Just like a fool i can’t even say that i love you because….
We’re afraid the wait that comes upon us
After we meet will be painful and sad

Because i’m like a fool
Even though i can’t say i love you
We’re afraid the wait that comes upon us
After we meet will be painful and sad.
