여행 (A Short Journey, Goodbye) - Super Junior

Been going through bro's room packing up his stuff and discovered more comics and trading cards... also found a lot of photos from when he was at college and uni... no time to scan them yet... plenty to do when I get home to Brunei with them... just hope there's a scanner that can do both prints and film...

While going about with the sorting and packing... my itunes is on too and lately, I have been listening to Super Junior's new 4th album 'Bonamana'... some cool songs there... my current favourite is 'No Other' - its almost on repeat... =p

However, this other song by SuJu is so poignant... it affected me when I first heard it... its written by 2 members of the group (DongHae & EunHyuk) and they had their fellow group member (Kangin) who was leaving to join the army (compulsory national service in Korea) in mind... its about friendship but it also applies to loved ones who had left us... be it for a short while or till we meet again...

I know I should not be so sentimental but its very difficult not to... promised myself that I will live for the two of us... I better start soon...



English Translation:
My heart that loved you
my eyes that looked at you
are still here.
Oh baby say goodbye, for a short while goodbye.
The talk about goodbye, I’ll put it aside for a short while.
When I open that door and take one step
your breath that’s conveyed to the tip of my nose
In the cold wind the feeling of your warm hand stays for a while
all your traces become tears and stay on my cheeks
After i go on for a trip for a short while
and wipe of my heart wrenching wound
after time passed by when I meet you
I will tell you that I missed you
Oh baby say goodbye, for a short while goodbye.
The talk about goodbye, I’ll put it aside for a short while.
When I open that door and take one step
your breath that’s conveyed to the tip of my nose
today when the sun sets and the moon rises again, it’s still the same
oh why is my heart changing this fast
your appearance that resembled the blue sky rains
when my body gets wet from this rain i’ll hide my running tears
Oh baby say goodbye, for a short while goodbye.
The talk about goodbye, I’ll put it aside for a short while.
When I open that door and take one step
your breath that’s conveyed to the tip of my nose
In the past when I did whatever I wanted and was foolish
you who embraces all of that are really precious
Oh baby say goodbye, for a short while goodbye.
The talk about goodbye, I’ll put it aside for a short while.
When I open that door and take one step
your breath that’s conveyed to the tip of my nose
Oh baby say goodbye, for a short while goodbye.
The talk about goodbye, I’ll put it aside for a short while.
I’ll go back to the place
When I once was
When I open that door and take one step
so that I can stand in front of you who i missed
My heart that loved you
my eyes that looked at you
I’ll wait.
