I Can't Get Used To It

I just finished watching Bi’s “It’s A Rainy Day” concert. There was a song from his first album titled ‘Iksuchi Anhaso’ which is translated as “I Can’t Get Used To It”. He sang it and broke into tears. When I heard it, even though I do not understand it I know that it is a sad song and the melody is beautiful, coupled with his deep silky vocals.

The lyrics touched my heart and it all seemed so familiar. It was after I knew what the lyrics meant that I feel the very sadness of the song. It’s the one Korean song I listen to that will make me cry. It’s beautiful. Here is the translation of the song:

I Can't Get Used To It

Today I met you by chance
That person who I had heard about was there with you
I was so surprised because there was a smile on your face
A smile that had never been there when you were with me
I guess I seemed pathetic to you, so lonely and sad
There were tears in my eyes
So you asked me why I was crying, why I was hurting so much
I tried to lie to you
But when I saw you looking at me I couldn't help myself
All the words that were in my heart spilled out

* CHORUS *
Going to bed alone, waking up alone
Eating meals alone, I can't get used to that
Liking something alone, feeling sad alone
I can't get used to that, I can't get used to it

Why can't I forget you?
Even now if I think of you tears fill my eyes
Enough time has passed for me to forget about you
So why can't I forget you even after all this time?
There was a time before we met when I lived alone
I say to myself that I'll try to go back to that time
But then all I see is the empty space that you have left
