Scarecrow

                                                                                                            


Man, I love this song!!
So deep...
So sad...
So touching...

The lyrics of this song is just so deep n heartbreaking...

Lyrics (translated):

I try to feel you at the tip of my fingers
I try to feel you at the tip of my fingers
But I forget. I always forget that I can't touch you.
Do you know? Because you live in the one room of my heart,
No one else will do.
Even the memories are lost, even the warmth is gone... now.
I'm a scarecrow standing on one foot
I'm a sad scarecrow, my heart aching without you.
In the harsh wind, I keep swaying
Even if my body scatters apart
If you'd come to me some day
I want to embrace you with my arms wide open.
I'll wait for U.
I'll wait for U.
Even when I try to send your voice away,
It lingers in my ears. It keeps lingering and I think of it again,
So that the time you were here can't flow away, I block the way.
I'm a scarecrow standing on one foot
I'm a sad scarecrow, my heart aching without you.
In the harsh wind, I keep swaying
Even if my body scatters apart
If you'd come to me some day
I want to embrace you with my arms wide open.
I'll wait for U.
I'll wait for U.
Don't wanna let you go (let U go) Don't wanna let you go (let U go)
Don't wanna let you go (let U go) Don't wanna let you go (let U go)
As if a nail has pierced me, as if my breath has stopped, here...
Words I couldn't say then, words I'm saying now, though it may be too late
My Love
I love you, I love you, My Love
I'm a sunflower that only looks toward one place
Without you, I'm an ash-covered child with nowhere to go
In the harsh wind, I keep swaying
Even if my body scatters apart
If you'd come to me some day
I want to embrace you with my arms wide open.
I still love you.
I still love you.

The chorus is just so deep..
A scarecrow?
With one foot?
Swaying with the harsh wind even if it's body scatters apart..
Oh my.. That's just so deep..


Do you guys get the meaning of the song?
Well, you probably have to watch the drama to really understand the song.  
This really, really, really cute and handsome guy here is Jung Ill Woo..
He sang this song and he played a character in the drama.
In the drama he sang this song while playing a guitar which made him
look so so so cool!!!
Sigh..
He's just so good looking..
Kehkehkehkeh...
I love him in this drama!

Okay, back to the point..
In the drama there's this guy, the scheduler (Jung ill Woo) who is kinda like the grim reaper...
He used to be human but he died when he was 23 and sighed a contract to
be a scheduler which enables him to appear in the human world and live among the living...
He can appear in front of the living or not.. 
Depends on his mood. Whether he wants to or not. 
Kekekeke..
But poor guy.. he can't even remember who he was when he was alive..

Turns out when he was alive, he was in love with this girl names Song Yi Kyung.
So I guess he sang this song for her..



"I try to feel you at the tip of my fingers
I try to feel you at the tip of my fingers
But I forget. I always forget that I can't touch you."

I guess it means that he's dead and he can't do anything for her..
Maybe..
He wants to touch her.. to embrace her..
but he always forget that he can't because he's no longer alive..
and she can't even see him..
                                      

"I'm a scarecrow standing on one foot 
                                               I'm a sad scarecrow, my heart aching without you. 
                                                         In the harsh wind, I keep swaying 

Even if my body scatters apart"

He's like a scarecrow..
Standing..
Seeing.. 
Observing..
Watching..
Listening..
But he can't move..
He can't touch..
He's just standing there.. 
Helpless..

Swaying helplessly with the harsh wind..
Even if his body scatters apart, he can't do anything..
Nothing..

Man, that's DEEP!!!
Whoever wrote this song is a genius!
Genius, I say!!!
Hahaha!!!

To understand this song more, well, you just have to watch the drama, "49 Days".
go watch it..
It's awesome!!!
