Home Janet Suhh Lyrics (from Our Beloved Summer)
지쳤던 내 마음 (jichyeotdeon nae maeum)
다 한켠에 모아 (da han kyeone moa)
돌이켜봐 여긴 oh, my home (dori kyeobwa yeogin oh, my home)
괜찮아 견뎌온 날 (gwaenchanha gyeondyeoon nal)
그때의 나 (geuttaeui na)
하고 싶던 말 (hago sipdeon mal)
내뱉진 않아도 (naebaetjin anhado)
다 알던 그 마음은 was my home (da aldeon geu maeumeun was my home)
그렇게 수많은 (geureoke sumaneun)
시간이 지나 (sigani jina)
또 다른 기억 (tto dareun gieok)
You were my home
기댈 줄만 알던 내가 뭘 말해 (gidal julman aldeon naega mwol malhae)
어리숙한 내 마음을 이렇게 전해 (eorisukan nae maeumeul ireohke jeonhae)
난 그렇게 당신 곁에 (nan geureoke dangsin gyeote)
남을 수만 있다면 우린 (nameul suman itdamyeon urin)
집에 돌아온걸 (jibe dolaoongeol)
당신의 생각 (dangsinui saenggak)
그 속에서 난 (geu sogeseo nan)
저편에 어떤 존재인 걸까 (jeopyeon-e eotteon jonjae-in geolkka)
더 따뜻한 그 마음속 (deo ttatteuthan geu maeumsok)
깊게 새겨진 순간의 기억 (gipge saegyeojin sunganui gieok)
그게 내겐 집이었어 (geuge naegen jib-ieosseo)
나는 언제나 그 자리에 (naneun eonjena geu jarie)
늘 당신을 (neul dangsin-eul)
이렇게 기다리고 있는 (ireohke gidarigo itneun)
I’ll be your home
그렇게 수많은 (geureoke sumaneun)
시간이 지나 (sigani jina)
또 다른 기억 (tto dareun gieok)
You were my home
기댈 줄만 알던 내가 뭘 말해 (gidal julman aldeon naega mwol malhae)
어리숙한 내 마음을 이렇게 전해 (eorisukan nae maeumeul ireohke jeonhae)
난 그렇게 당신 곁에 (nan geureoke dangsin gyeote)
남을 수만 있다면 우린 (nameul suman itdamyeon urin)
집에 돌아온걸 (jibe dolaoongeol)

저편에 어떤 존재인 걸까 (jeopyeon-e eotteon jonjae-in geolkka)
더 따뜻한 그 마음속 (deo ttatteuthan geu maeumsok)
깊게 새겨진 순간의 기억 (gipge saegyeojin sunganui gieok)
애써 모른척한 눈물들과 (aesseo moleuncheokhan nunmuldwa)
내일로 미루던 고백들을 (naillo mirudeon gobaegdeul)
내게 와 내려놔 (naege wa naeryeonwa)
기대어 잠시 쉬어 여기 (gidae-eo jamsi swieo yeogi)
언제나 I’ll be your home (eonjena I’ll be your home)
Home Our Beloved Summer Lyrics English Translation
My tired heart
Gathered in a corner
Looking back, here is oh, my home
It’s okay, the days I’ve endured
The me from back then
The words I wanted to say
Even if I didn’t say them out loud
That heart, which you knew, was my home
So many times have passed
And more memories
You were my home
What can I say, being the one who only knew how to rely on you
I convey my naive heart like this
If I could just stay by your side
Then we’ve come back home
Your thoughts
Within them, I wonder
What kind of existence am I on the other side?
In the warmer heart
Deeply engraved memories of moments
That was home to me
I’m always in that place
Always waiting for you like this
I’ll be your home
So many times have passed
And more memories
You were my home
What can I say, being the one who only knew how to rely on you
I convey my naive heart like this
If I could just stay by your side
Then we’ve come back home
Your thoughts
Within them, I wonder
What kind of existence am I on the other side?
In the warmer heart
Deeply engraved memories of moments
The tears I tried to ignore
Confessions I postponed for tomorrow
Come to me and put them down
Rest here for a moment, leaning
Always, I’ll be your home
