Because I Couldn't Tell You I Love You by K.Will (Han/Rom/Eng)

For all intents and purposes, I've posted the following for the benefit of Korean singers' fans across the globe just like me :)

The following lyrics is from the internet drama Soul Special (starring Han Hyo-Joo, Kim Dong-wook, Lee Chae-young and K.Will)

I believe it's K.Will's first try in acting so the drama was a big deal for his fans. Anyways, to his fans and the fans of the darma, enjoy :)

Because I Couldn't Tell You That I Love You

(K.Will)

잘가라며 돌아서는 짧은 인사가

jalgalamyeo dol-aseoneun jjalb-eun insaga

the short goodbye as you turned away

내맘깊이 혼자 남아서

naemamgip-i honja nam-aseo

has remained deep inside my heart

가슴속에 섞여 무뎌짐이 되는 일

gaseumsog-e seokk-yeo mudyeojim-i doeneun il

mixed inside my heart, being a buried burden

차마 더 견딜 수 없나봐..

chama deo gyeondil su eobsnabwa..

I guess I couldn’t endure it any longer

잡을 수도 없던 나의 하루 하루가

jab-eul sudo eobsdeon naui halu haluga

my day to day that seemed to pass so quickly

오늘은 왜 이리 더딘지

oneul-eun wae ili deodinji

why did it suddenly become so slow

울던니모습이따뜻한목소리가

uldeon nimoseubi ttatteutan moksoriga

your warm voice, your crying face

멍하니 또 다시 찾아와..

meonghani tto dasi chaj-awa..

idly come again..

턱끝까지 차오르는 눈물이 흐르고

teogkkeutkkaji chaoleuneun nunmul-i heuleugo

the overwhelming tears finally began to flow

내가슴끝이하 얗게머리를채워도

naegaseum kkeuchi hayake meorireul chaewodo

though I try to clear my heart and try to clear my head

참아내고비워내도더괜찮은듯이

chamanaego biwonaedo deo gwaenchanheun deusi

though I bear it and erase it, again living as if I were fine

살아도 어쩔 수 없나봐..

sal-ado eojjeol su eobsnabwa..

I guess I can’t do anything

사랑한단 말을 못해서

salanghandan mal-eul moshaeseo

because I couldn’t tell you I love you

사랑이란 말을 못해서

salang-ilan mal-eul moshaeseo

because I couldn’t tell you this was love

가슴끝에 삼킨 그말 아직 못해서..

gaseumkkeut-e samkin geumal ajig moshaeseo..

because I couldn’t say the words deep in my heart

아무것도 할 수 없잖아

amugeosdo hal su eobsjanh-a

I can’t do anything

아무것도 볼 수 없잖아

amugeosdo bol su eobsjanh-a

I can’t see anything

움직일 수 없어

umjig-il su eobs-eo

I can’t move

종일 미친듯이 너만 외쳤어..

jong-il michindeus-i neoman oechyeoss-eo..

I just shout your name endlessly all day..

숨조차 쉴 수 없는데

sumjocha swil su eobsneunde

I couldn’t even breath

이렇게 끝나버리면

ileohge kkeutnabeolimyeon

if it just ends like this

너없이 살 수 없는 바보같은 나라서

neoeobs-i sal su eobsneun babogat-eun nalaseo

because I’m a fool who couldn’t live without you

사랑해 널 기다리잖아..

salanghae neol gidalijanh-a..

I love you, I’m waiting for you

사랑한단 말을 못해서

salanghandan mal-eul moshaeseo

because I couldn’t tell you I love you

사랑이란 말을 못해서

salang-ilan mal-eul moshaeseo

because I couldn’t tell you this was love

가슴속에 삼킨 그말 끝내 못해서..

gaseumsog-e samkin geumal kkeutnae moshaeseo..

because I couldn’t tell you those swallowed words deep in my heart

아무것도 할 수 없잖아

amugeosdo hal su eobsjanh-a

I can’t do anything

아무것도 볼 수 없잖아

amugeosdo bol su eobsjanh-a

I can’t see anything

움직일 수 없어

umjig-il su eobs-eo

I can’t move

종일 미친듯이 너만 외 쳤어..

jong-il michindeus-i neoman oe chyeoss-eo..

I just shout your name endlessly all day

하루종일 너만 외 쳤어…

halujong-il neoman oe chyeoss-eo …

all day I shout your name
