Then came the sexual tension. Till now, I still don't have
words to describe the kind of tension that was between
us. The first time I ever kissed him, it felt like butterflies
erupted in my belly. I had never, ever felt anything like
that. The events that preceded our first kiss are still
etched in my memory and I think back on it every time.
For partners who saw each other every single day, going
long distance was my biggest fear. At this point, we had
been dating for almost two years and we had overcome
the forced separation COVID-19 had brought into our
lives. The COVID-19 era was insane, I had no idea when
I left him in March that I wouldn't see him till August,
missing all 3 important events in our relationship (his
birthday, our first anniversary and my birthday). But
COVID-19 was the turning point in our relationship.
That was when we knew the depth of our love for each
other and we promised we were never going to let each
other go.
I thought after COVID, the worst was over, but then the
japa plans kicked in. He started to consider going
abroad to further his education and he was very excited.
That was all he could talk about, every time we were
together, he filled me in on his plans, the country he
wanted to go to, how he would leave, when he would
leave, and why he was leaving. He was very excited and
I just had to be there for him.
Intro
That faint voice of yours that grazed me
Please call my name one more time
I’m standing still under the frozen light, but
I will walk towards you, step by step
Still with you
Verse 1
A pitch dark room
I shouldn’t get used to it
But I’m used to it again
The low-pitched sound of the air conditioner
If I don’t have this, I might just fall apart
Pre-Chorus 1
We laugh together, we cry together
These simple feelings were everything I had
When will it be?
If I see you again
I will look into your eyes
And say, "I missed you"
Chorus
In a rapturous memory
The rain pours even when I dance alone
By the time this mist clears
I'll run with my feet wet
So hug me then
English Translation of “Still With You”
by Jungkook (BTS)
Verse 2
The moon looks lonely
Like it's crying in the bright night sky
Even though I always know the morning will come
I want to stay in your sky like a star
Pre-Chorus 2
Every day, every moment
If I knew this was gonna happen
I would have remembered more of them
When will it be?
If I see you again
I will look into your eyes
And say, "I missed you"
Chorus
In a rapturous memory
The rain pours even when I dance alone
By the time this mist clears
I'll run with my feet wet
So hug me then
Outro
Behind the faint smile that looked at me
I will draw a beautiful purple shade
Though our footsteps may be out of step
I want to walk this path with you
Still with you
Chapter 4
But with you, I'm not afraid of the future. With your
hands in mine, I'm ready to take over the world. You
make life worth living, you make love worth feeling.
