<Q> What's the name of the song that goes "가슴 아파도 나이렇게 웃어요"?


<A> the title of that song is '가슴 아파도' by 플라이투더스카이



가슴 아파도 - 04:26


오늘 하루도 열두 번 도 더 

내 마음이 다녀오네요 

그대가 내게 위험하대도 

이젠 멈출 수가 없어요... 

종일 그려도 내일에 쓸 그리움 

어제처럼 다시 남아서.... 

 

가슴 아파도 나 이렇게 웃어요 

내 눈이 행복한 건 처음이니까 

삼킨 눈물에 맘이 짖물러가도 

그대라면 난 괜찮아요.... 

 

외로울수록 눈물날수록 

알 수 없는 힘이 생겨요  

슬픔에 지치면 미움에 다치면 

그댈 잃을지도 몰라요.... 

 

알고 있나요...내 기다림이 훨씬 

삶보다도 길다는 것을....    

 

가슴 아파도 나 이렇게 웃어요 

내 눈이 행복한 건 처음이니까 

삼킨 눈물에 맘이 짖물러가도 

그대라면 난 괜찮아요.... 

 

두번 다신 그댈 볼 수 없다면 

아무것도 못보게 될텐데 

눈을 뜨고도 감은 것처럼 

어둠 속을 걷게 될 텐데...    

 

안고 싶어요 사랑하고 싶어요

내 품이 닳아 없어지는 날까지 

남은 소원을 다 버려도 좋으니 

내겐 단 한사람만 

오직 이 한소원만 

그대라면 난 감사해요...
