Basics Lyrics
[Korean]
Ah
Ah-ah-ah
First time, 눈이 마주친 순간
어질어질한 이 공간
꿈속인지 헷갈려 숨이 차올라
조금 더 가까이 다가와 천천히
Can you make me feel like a diamond, uh? (But, what the, uh?)
다른 애들과는 달라, ain’t beggin’ for love
나쁜 건 아니잖아 이게 나라서
어디로 튈지 몰라 like rainbow bubble gum
그러니 날 꽉 붙잡아둬
알아 나도
Well about myself
쉽지 않단 걸
You might want some help
You wanna try
But not tonight
So I’ma call my friend up, take off my makeup
I’ma sleep good tonight, okay
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics
다 원해 원해 원해? 서두르지 마, babe
뻔해 뻔해 말해 뭐해 다 알 텐데
(Ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah)
타는 듯 뜨거운 사막 위에
예쁘게 피어난 장미 같아
조심스레 내게 다가올 때
나도 모르게 찔러버릴 텐데
긴장이 필요한 순간이야
정신을 놓지 마 지금이야
궁금하잖아 전화기를 들어
질문을 던져 대답해줄게
알아 나도
Well about myself
쉽지 않단 걸
You might want some help
You wanna try
But not tonight
So I’ma call my friend up, take off my makeup
I’ma sleep good tonight, okay
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics
다 원해 원해 원해? 서두르지 마, babe
뻔해 뻔해 말해 뭐해 다 알 텐데
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics
Slow it down and speed it up like you a spaceship
Baby, later, 남겨 줄게 my location
(Ah, yеah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah)
부족하다고 넌 느끼겠지만
기본에 충실한 태도일 뿐이야
우리 둘 사이 팽팽한 긴장감
놓지 않는 게 더 좋단 걸 알아
I know it feels likе you’re payin’ the price
내 모든 것을 더는 바라지마
So let’s take it back, oh
Let’s take it back
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics
다 원해 원해 원해? 서두르지 마, babe
뻔해 뻔해 말해 뭐해 다 알 텐데
(Ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah)
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics
Slow it down and speed it up like you a spaceship
Baby, later, 남겨 줄게 my location
(Ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah, ah, yeah)
[English Translation]
Ah
Ah-ah-ah
First time, the moment our eyes met
This messy space
I’m confused if I’m in a dream, I’m out of breath
Come a little closer
Come slowly
Can you make me feel like a diamond, uh? (But, what the, uh?)
I am different from other kids, ain’t beggin’ for love
It’s not bad because this is who I am
I don’t know where it’ll bounce like rainbow bubble gum
So hold on to me
I know too
Well about myself
That it’s not easy
You might want some help
You wanna try
But not tonight
So I’ma call my friend up, take off my makeup
I’ma sleep good tonight, okay
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics (Oh, yеah)
Do you want it all?
Don’t rush, babe (Oh, yeah)
It’s obvious, it’s obvious, tell mе, you should know everything (Oh, yeah)
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah (Yeah)
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah
In the burning hot desert
I am like a rose that bloomed beautifully
When you approach me carefully
I would prick you without knowing it
It’s time to relax
Don’t lose your mind, it’s now
I’m curious, pick up the phone
Ask me a question, and I’ll answer it
I know too
Well about myself
That it’s not easy
You might want some help
You wanna try
But not tonight
So I’ma call my friend up, take off my makeup
I’ma sleep good tonight, okay
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics (Oh, yeah)
Do you want it all?
Don’t rush, babe (Oh, yeah)
It’s obvious, I don’t need to say it, everyone knows (Oh, yeah)
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah (Yeah)
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics
Slow it down and speed it up like you a spaceship
Baby, later, I’ll leave you my location
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah (Ah, yeah)
You’ll feel it’s not enough
It’s just an attitude faithful to the basics
The tension between the two of us
I know it’s better not to let go
I know it feels like you’re payin’ the price
Don’t you want all of me anymore
So let’s take it back, oh-oh
Let’s take it back
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics (Oh, yeah)
Do you want it all?
Don’t rush, babe (Oh, yeah)
It’s obvious, I don’t need to say it, everyone knows (Oh, yeah)
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah (Yeah)
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah
I wanna, wanna, wanna take it to the basics
Slow it down and speed it up like you a spaceship
Baby, later, I’ll leave you my location
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah
Ah, yeah, ah, yeah
