That day I met you the first time
Rose cheeks and your shy eyes, I wished that you'd smile for me
Maybe after today
Growing close day by day
You'll be happy to be with me too

I don't know how to tell you
I don't know what I should do when you're around
I'm afraid to hold hands
'Cause our love just began
But I'm hoping you feel that way too

Hopefully we'll speak like friends when we're together again
We're not strangers, though we'll be a bit unfamiliar
Don't tell me "thank you," just say "thanks" instead
And I'll talk with you as though we're good friends 

Hopefully we'll speak like friends when we're together again
You'll walk to me, stepping closer slowly 
Looking in my eyes with your hands in mine
And you will say
"Saranghae"

That day we finally held hands
Holding my breath as they fit into mine
My heart wanted to sing
Can't recall anything
Just the fluttering feel of my heart

Hopefully we'll speak like friends when we're together again
We're not strangers, though we'll be a bit unfamiliar
Don't tell me "thank you," just say "thanks" instead
And I'll talk with you as though we're good friends 

Hopefully we'll speak like friends when we're together again
You'll walk to me, stepping closer slowly 
Looking in my eyes with your hands in mine
And you will say
"Saranghae"

Hopefully we'll speak like friends when we're together again
Keep our hands clasped, it's the one thing I will ask 
Just the light of your eyes looking in mine
Hoping that I'll get to see your smile

It's quite likely that as friends we'll fall in love in the end
Caring for and leaning on each other
I'll look into your eyes with your hands in mine
And I will say 
"Saranghae"
