Oh! Show, show me. Down, falling down. Soft like rain. Oh! I’m not another... I am my own. I know my promise. Show, show me. Down, falling down. Soft like rain. Down, falling down. Soft like rain. Show, show me. Show, show me.

How can I tell you. The words that I have to say Don't come easy. I know that they'll make you cry. Vodka sours destroy the hours. Every drink another line. In the road written is your name. If only time would let me Run it over for a while. For you are here and there. Your eyes are everywhere, Yet when I turn around You are gone. Where am I? Without you now. Everyday I hope you call, But you don't. Oh, what can I say? I hear your voice, But no one's there. I miss your little ways. For you are here and there. Your eyes are everywhere, Yet when I turn around You are gone. How can I tell you. The words I have to say, They don't come easy. They could push you away. I know someday We'll look back on today and smile. We'll say it's for the best, And talk for a while. For you are here and there. Your eyes are everywhere, Yet when I turn around You are gone. For you are here and there. Your eyes are everywhere, Yet when I turn around You are gone.

I used to be The one to hold your hand. Talk to me. I'll try to understand. 처음 본 순간 햇빛이 나왔다. (The moment I first saw you, the sun came out.) 봐라보면서 다 할 수 있었다. (When I was with you, I could have done anything.) Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave you behind. Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave, Never leave. I used to drink, And party all night long. It got to the brink. I almost lost it all. 왜 찾아와? (Why did you come here?) 왜 사랑하니, 날? (Why do you love me?) 날 보지 마. (Don't look at me.) 안 사랑 헷잔아. (I didn't love you.) Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave you behind. Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave, Never leave. Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave you behind. Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave, Never leave. I won't forget The way you made me feel. Just close your eyes. Believe it, and it's real. 하늘위에서 너만 바라보면서. (From now on, I'll be watching you from the heavens above) 이제부터 날 사랑하지마. (From now on, don't love me.) Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave you behind. Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave, Never leave. Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave you behind. Oh, the bells are ringing. I'll never leave, Never leave.

He wasted away Propped on a pillow Lost in the sky. Eyes dark as the night, Darker than beetles. He's waiting for you. No, no, no, no. You're the only one for me. Just breathe, And look into my eyes. She's standing at the top. She's standing motionless. She's standing high. Oh, what should I do? How can I keep you Safe in my arms. I'm just so afraid You'll slip away If I let go of you. No, no, no, no. You're the only one for me. Just breathe, And look into my eyes. She's standing at the top. She's standing motionless. She's standing high. You're the only one for me. Just breathe, And look into my eyes. She's standing at the top. She's standing motionless. She's standing high.

about

"Katherine Park is an Asian-American independent musician whose music can be categorized as soft pop, dream pop and the sound is almost ethereal like Enya. Her debut EP is simply stunning, and I'm so thankful I came across her on Bandcamp. It's always startling to me how Asian-American musicians are not acknowledged in this country and this woman's beautiful EP is spellbinding to say the least. Check out the track "Gone" above, but her other track "Promises," is equally gorgeous and available here. " - IDOLS & INDIE

"Some things are very difficult to say let alone acknowledge even to myself and are the source of unmatched pain. Your music gives voice to many silent screams. I hope you see and feel all three sides of the coin in your music. Perhaps the three sides do not have similar popularity. That's the way it is with "Pop" tunes. Thanks for your music. I have long missed hearing you and Rebecca play. The sound of your voice decorates my heart, each beat reverberating forever in my mind." - Robert

"I am blown away by the dynamism & diversity of your life as an Artist! Upon just having viewed & listened to your song "Gone" on YouTube, waves of joy are moving through me. How wonderful to see such beauty & creativity flowing forth. I left a comment. I had to give another listen to more of your music & am now in the midst of the absolutely etherealy evocative 'My Lagan Love' on soundcloud. " - Steve
