The Story Only I Didn't Know - IU

Hangul

정말 넌 다 잊었더라
반갑게 날 보는 너의 얼굴 보니
그제야 어렴풋이 아파오더라
새 살 차오르지 못한 상처가

눈물은 흐르질 않더라
이별이라 하는 게 대단치도 못해서
이렇게 보잘것없어서

좋은 이별이란 거, 결국 세상엔 없는 일이란 걸
알았다면 그때 차라리 다 울어둘걸
그때 이미 나라는 건 네겐 끝이었다는 건
나만 몰랐었던 이야기

사랑은 아니었더라
내 곁에 머물던 시간이었을 뿐
이제야 어렴풋이 알 것만 같아
왜 넌 미안했어야만 했는지

내가 너무 들떴었나 봐
떠나는 순간마저 기대를 했었다니
얼마나 우스웠던 거니

좋은 이별이란 거, 결국 세상엔 없는 일이란 걸
알았다면 그때 차라리 다 울어둘걸
그때 이미 나라는 건 네겐 끝이었다는 건

나만 몰랐었던 이야기

Translation

You really did forget everything
Seeing how happily you’re greeting me
Only then did I vaguely begin to feel the pain
The wound that had yet to appear on my skin

The tears would not come
Since this farewell didn’t seem significant
Since it felt so inconsequential

A pleasant goodbye ultimately there can be no such thing
If I had known, I would have cried it all out then
At that time, that I was already a part of your ending
Was a story only I didn’t know

So it wasn’t love
It was just a moment which you spent by my side
Now I’m vaguely beginning to understand
Why you could only apologize

I must have been too excited
The very moment you left me, I was expecting you again
How foolish was I?

A pleasant goodbye ultimately there can be no such thing
If I had known, I would have cried it all out then
At that time, that I was already a part of your ending
Was a story only I didn’t know
