LIM CHANG JUNG (임창정)
"Love Should Not Be Harsh On You (힘든 건 사랑이 아니다)"



English Translation:

I should have left you
I knew why I had to leave
But without a word, you stayed by me
Quietly holding my hand when I had nothing to give to you

Please leave me, please find yourself
You can let go of me now
You can definitely go back
So please leave me before it’s too late

Why couldn’t I have let you go earlier?
I knew that we could never be in this life
You could’ve been a precious person to someone
But you were always covered by my shadow, not able to receive love
So I’m sorry

I’ve received enough, this love that I never thought I’d have
I couldn’t say anything, I had nothing to give
But you still held me

Please leave me, please find yourself
You can let go of me now
You can definitely go back
So please leave me before it’s too late

Why couldn’t I have let you go earlier?
I held on at the thought that we could’ve been forever
You could’ve been a precious person to someone
But I wanted to be that person and that’s why I selfishly held onto you till now

Are you afraid that we’ll be lost after you leave?
No, we’ll just be in the same place
Once we say goodbye, it’ll only hurt for a moment
The world will say we did good

Why couldn’t I have let you go earlier?
I knew that we could never be in this life
You could’ve been a precious person to someone
But you were always covered by my shadow, not able to receive love
So I’m sorry
