We Were In Love

T-ARA's song 'We Were In Love' is a poignant ballad that delves deep into the emotional turmoil of a love that once was but is now slipping away. The lyrics are a heartfelt plea from someone who is desperately trying to hold onto a relationship that meant everything to them. The repeated refrain, '우리 사랑 했잖아 제발 날 울리지마' (We were in love, please don't make me cry), underscores the pain and longing felt by the narrator, who cannot bear the thought of their loved one leaving.

The song is rich with vivid imagery and metaphors that convey the depth of the narrator's despair. Lines like '눈을 감아도 보여 귀를 막아도 들려' (Even when I close my eyes, I see you; even when I block my ears, I hear you) illustrate how inescapable the memories of their love are. The narrator's life was once dark, but their lover brought light into it, making the impending loss even more unbearable. The lyrics also touch on the hope that the loved one might return, as seen in '돌아 올것 같아서, 다시 올지 몰라서 오늘 또 너를 기다려' (I feel like you'll come back, so I wait for you again today).

The song also explores the theme of sacrifice and the lengths one is willing to go for love. The narrator expresses a willingness to give up everything for their loved one, as highlighted in '세상과 너 둘 중에 태하라면 하나 내 전부 빼 앗아도, 너라면 난 좋아' (If I had to choose between the world and you, even if you took everything from me, I'd still choose you). This line encapsulates the depth of their devotion and the pain of unrequited love. The song's emotional intensity is further amplified by the melancholic melody and the heartfelt delivery by T-ARA, making it a powerful anthem for anyone who has experienced the agony of lost love.
