IVE “I AM” Original Lyrics
[Verse 1: Wonyoung, Rei]
다른 문을 열어 따라 갈 필요는 없어
넌 너의 길로 난 나의 길로, mm-mm
하루하루마다 색이 달라진 느낌
밝게 빛이 나는 길을 찾아
[Refrain: Yujin, Gaeul]
I’m on my way-ay-ay
넌 그냥 믿으면 돼
I’m on my way-ay-ay
보이는 그대로야
[Pre-Chorus: Leeseo, Liz]
너는 누군가의 dreams come true
제일 좋은 어느 날의 déjà vu
머물고픈 어딘가의 낯선 view
I’ll be far away
[Chorus: All, Yujin]
That’s my life is 아름다운 galaxy
Be a writer, 장르로는 fantasy
내일 내게 열리는 건 big, big stage
So that is who I am
[Verse 2: Gaeul, Liz, Rei]
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
어제랑 또 다른 짜릿한 나
두려운 모든 게 설레이게
I’m in sky high, oh, my God
사소한 건 다
아득해져 와
Look at me now, look at me now
I’m on fire
[Refrain: Yujin, Gaeul]
I’m on my way-ay-ay
넌 그냥 믿으면 돼
I’m on my way-ay-ay
보이는 그대로야
[Pre-Chorus: Leeseo, Liz]
너는 누군가의 dreams come true
제일 좋은 어느 날의 déjà vu
머물고픈 어딘가의 낯선 view
I’ll be far away
[Chorus: All, Yujin]
That’s my life is 아름다운 galaxy
Be a writer, 장르로는 fantasy
내일 내게 열리는 건 big, big stage
So that is who I am
[Bridge: Wonyoung, Leeseo, Yujin]
어느 깊은 밤
길을 잃어도
차라리 날아올라 그럼 네가 지나가는 대로 길이거든
One, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three
Fly up
[Pre-Chorus: Rei, Liz]
I hope you’d be someone’s dreams come true
제일 좋은 어느 날의 déjà vu
머물고픈 어딘가의 낯선 view
I’ll be far away
[Chorus: All, Yujin]
That’s my life is 아름다운 galaxy
Be a writer, 장르로는 fantasy
내일 내게 열리는 건 big, big stage
So that is who I am
IVE “I AM” English Translation Lyrics
[Verse 1: Wonyoung, Rei]
Open another door, no need to follow me
You’re on your way, I’m on my way, mm-mm
Feels like the color changes every day
Find the path that shines brightly
[Refrain: Yujin, Gaeul]
I’m on my way-ay-ay (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You just have to believe
I’m on my way-ay-ay (Ooh)
It’s just as it seems
[Pre-Chorus: Leeseo, Liz]
You are someone’s dreams come true
A déjà vu of some perfect day
A strange view of somewhere I want to stay
I’ll be far away
[Chorus: All, Yujin]
(That’s my) Life is a beautiful galaxy
Be a writer, the genre being fantasy
A big, big stage will open for me tomorrow
So that is who I am
[Verse 2: Gaeul, Liz, Rei]
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
A thrilling, different me from yesterday
Everything I’m afraid of excites me now
I’m in sky high, oh, my God
The trivial things are fading away
Look at me now, look at me now
I’m on fire
[Refrain: Yujin, Gaeul]
I’m on my way-ay-ay (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You just have to believe
I’m on my way-ay-ay (Ooh)
It’s just as it seems
[Pre-Chorus: Leeseo, Liz]
You are someone’s dreams come true
A déjà vu of some perfect day
A strange view of somewhere I want to stay
I’ll be far away
[Chorus: All, Yujin]
(That’s my) Life is a beautiful galaxy
Be a writer, the genre being fantasy
A big, big stage will open for me tomorrow
So that is who I am
[Bridge: Wonyoung, Leeseo, Yujin]
If you get lost on a dark night
Just fly high, then wherever you go will be the way
One, two, three, one, two, three
One, two, three, fly up
[Pre-Chorus: Rei, Liz]
I hope you’d be someone’s dreams come true
A déjà vu of some perfect day
A strange view of somewhere I want to stay
I’ll be far away
[Chorus: All, Yujin]
(That’s my) Life is a beautiful galaxy
Be a writer, the genre being fantasy
A big, big stage will open for me tomorrow
So that is who I am
