i'm so happy guys...Congratulate me c'mon...do you think this is an easy feat? for people with skills/knowledge maybe...but for me who even learn Korean language a bit here n there from translating this album...nay, it's not easy at all... i'm so happy i'm done translating nine songs from Save Us Tonight(Korean+Japanese) albums. minus the title song that has already been translated. because lyrics in this album is really satisfying to translate, i'm honoured...it amaze me that the album seems to incorporate one theme of some sort of [one-sided love] theme, be it general love, cute love, one sided yearning/pining, lust, lost love, and mysterious love...did you notice it too? cuz i'm very, very impressed with how the whole thing makes for an album with character. like some sort of picture made of puzzle pieces. i'm so inspired to translate again...lol. /maybe not/ i hope i can find some album with satisfying lyrics as this. (gotta thank Park Jungmin for this considering he wrote 7/10 full lyrics from the album n co-wrote 2/10...n only this one song is completely written by a different lyricist).
you may try request if you want but i only accept if i like the music/think the lyrics are worth my time to be translated n i don't translate mega popular artiste or artistes i dislike/music or songs that you can find translation already on the net...c'mon...google guys, don't be lazy -_-.....what a picky annoying person i am rite? /shrugs/ well...

a little analysis...
Just going to clarify/explain some lines in case they're not clear enough...
Inside of me, there's only you
Even if you glow from afar...for me, yes...
Everything is filled with you
notice those parts? a little confusing...personally, i think this is an attempt to play word...like for the first one...the 'for me, yes' can be attached to the sentence before & after...making it [1]even when i close my eyes i can only see you for me, yes....AND also [2]for me, yes, inside of me there's only you... same goes with the second verse... [1]even if you glow from afar (it's-the glow) for me, yes....and also [2]for me, everything is filled with you...
To me, you can either separate or combine it...the meaning remains. just my opinion guys...maybe i'm wrong who knows...
It keeps sending words of love to me
^ i added 'it' to avoid confusion...the 'keep sending words of love' is referring to line before...it means...the subject is not 'you' but rather the 'warmth from you' that sends the words of love to him.
Again and again telling me 'I love you' comfortingly
^ the subject that keep telling 'i love you' comfortingly is not 'you' but 'your fragrance'...
^ kay i think this is kind of clear but just in case...'my love' probly can refer to the subject of his affection as in 'you' OR also his feelings. take your pick...it won't change the meaning anyhow...
^ it's all good here, the phrase 좋아요 is usually used to say sth like....'i like' or 'it's good'....so in this context, i take 'it's all good' as 'it's alright'...i'm happy'...or sth like that...
Yeah cuz the lyricist is Loveholic dude and i love Loveholic's music so i kinda feel/think that's sort of their lyrics style...straightforward but a little poetic/flowery here n there...subtly, deep/emotional in simple ways...anyway, this is surprisingly not as hard as some other of lyrics in the album...but Kang Hyunmin seem to have written quite a number of music for Jungmin from SS501 days till now from Only Me n If You Cannot days continued throughout Jungmin's solo career...n he doesn't write much for idol singers(though i don't think of Jungmin as an idol anymore...he's more like indie...lol...since he produce n kinda sell his own album? n even his music, performances n style now feels like poprock-indie/Japanese artiste...for me) if i'm not mistaken so i'm really happy with this collaboration...Loveholic's music style is chill n not trendy, but timeless n i'm happy that Jungmin seem to have the same direction/aspiration with his music cuz God knows how much trendy music now annoys me, they sound so generic n the same~
