60 Seconds (based on Kim Sung Gyu song)


A story can be made within 60 seconds

“I sometimes walk and stop
I look around and our eyes meet”

Maybe it took less to fall in love

“I quickly turn my head away I look at my toes and
then slowly look up”

But now stop loving you will take infinite time. That love is just a painful memory now.

“My eyes that get larger. My lips that open up slightly
My heart rings in my ears”
I don’t want to be melodramatic but why did you go?
Why did I have to let you go? Will you ever come back?
“60 seconds is all I need for this story
You came into my heart, I don’t doubt it
That you took me away
The time that wasn’t short
You’re that kind of person
A story that’s enough for me
I don’t need any reasons
You made my heart flutter and look for you
That first time”
A rainy day I found you sited in the park’s bench holding your umbrella and with your other hand receiving the rain drops a smile draw in your innocent face I just couldn’t stop looking at you.
“Your voice breaks off
Your tears that slowly build up and fall over
I hold you with my chest
and stay there for a long time
then slowly push you away”
A melody, did you hear it? In that momenta melody played maybe it was just me.
How could I talk to you? You were like a dove, easy to get scared. Suddenly the rain stopped hitting me, for how long was I absent in my mind that I didn’t notice you came towards me and protected from the rain with your umbrella. – “You are going to get sick”- you said with a worried expression.
“My empty eyes
My two lips that are at a loss for words
My heart stops at your sigh”
You passed me the umbrella, taking my hand and forcing me to hold it, then you walked away, I tried to stop you –“is ok I like rain”- you said with a bright smile and faded away under the drops. I just wandered if I could see you again, luckily every day you went to that park to look at the trees changing colour and losing its leaves.

“60 seconds is all I need for this story
You disappeared from my life
I didn’t hold you back
The time that wasn’t short
You’re that kind of person
A story that’s enough for me
I don’t need any reasons
You clearly sent it. You said you were hurting
and I let you go. Our last time”
Being brave I dared to talk to you, hear your sweet voice made my heart race.
I still remember those days like it was yesterday, do you remember them?
Holding your hand, letting you sleep in my shoulder. Why those days are gone?
“My two stories
My hot and cold times
They’re both memories that you gave to me
The same times, but with different sides of you
My double-edged memories”
I could not notice, I was not able to protect you from the ghosts of your past haunting you every night, I was not able to notice the fear, the doubt in your eyes every time I held your hand, the tears in every kiss we shred … you said you wanted to fade I was not brave to keep you next to me and I let you go
“60 seconds is all I need for this story
You came into my heart, I don’t doubt it
That you took me away
The time that wasn’t short
You’re that kind of person
A story that’s enough for me
You disappeared from my life
I didn’t hold you back
The short amount of time that I saw your heart”
Fading away in the mist of winter.
