Love (Goblin OST)
MAMAMOO
The Confusing Beauty of Unexpected Love
MAMAMOO's song 'Love (Goblin OST)' delves into the complexities and unexpected nature of falling in love. The lyrics describe a person who finds themselves repeatedly encountering someone in their dreams and in real life, almost as if by fate. This constant presence starts to feel familiar, and even though the person initially denies that their feelings are due to love, the signs are unmistakable. The song captures the confusion and mixed emotions that come with realizing that someone has become an important part of your life, even when you didn't intend for it to happen.
The chorus emphasizes the strange and unsettling feelings that accompany this realization. The moonlit nights, which should be serene, instead become complicated and filled with thoughts of the other person. The lyrics 'Love 헤어저한 마음이 요즘 들어 이상해' (Love, my scattered heart feels strange these days) and 'Love 달빛 나린 밤도 날 복잡하게 만드네' (Love, even the moonlit nights make me feel complicated) highlight the internal turmoil and the shift in the person's emotional state.
As the song progresses, the lyrics reveal that the person's life used to revolve around themselves, but now, someone else has taken a central place in their heart. This shift is both thrilling and unsettling, as it brings back feelings and emotions that had been dormant. The song beautifully captures the essence of love's unpredictability and the way it can turn one's world upside down, making even the simplest moments feel magical and significant. The repeated questioning of whether the other person feels the same way adds a layer of vulnerability and longing, making the song relatable to anyone who has experienced the bewildering journey of falling in love.
