Without You

Lucia's song 'Without You' delves deep into the emotional turmoil and solitude experienced in the absence of a loved one. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the struggle to move forward, as seen in the opening lines where the singer describes the difficulty of taking a single step and the effort it takes to close their eyes and sleep. This imagery sets the tone for a song that is steeped in melancholy and longing.

The recurring theme of loneliness is palpable throughout the song. Phrases like 'It’s so lonely niga eopsneun nal' (It's so lonely without you) and 'I’m so lonely amudo eopsneun bam' (I'm so lonely on nights without anyone) highlight the deep sense of isolation the singer feels. The memories of the past, described as 'sseulsseulhan gieokman kkeureoango' (clinging to lonely memories), further emphasize the pain of separation and the yearning for the presence of the loved one.

Lucia's use of metaphors and reflective questions adds layers to the song's emotional depth. The singer wonders why they feel tears and why they are in such a state, despite trying to remain indifferent. The lines 'stay on my way, stay on my time' and 'only if I can turn back to time' express a desire to hold onto the past and the dream of being reunited. The song concludes with a poignant reflection on whether the singer will remember their loved one while gazing at the stars, symbolizing hope and the enduring nature of their feelings.
