The Rose
Childhood
Staying up late at night
Imagining all kinds of settings
Dreaming 'bout my life
Everything seemed so possible then
Now I don't even dream
Sick of feeling low again, mhm
Saying that I'm the one
Thinking the world revolved around me
Hoping for someone
To come and save me from this story
Now I don't even need
Sick of waiting on my dream
Don't forget when you're a child
시간이 흘러도
Let it stay in your mind
Don't live your life like you have a thousand years
Ready for you to waste your time on regrets
Don't you ever
You will never
잊고 살지마
니 머릿속에 있던 꿈들
더 때묻지마
세상이 너를 더럽혀도
빼앗기지마 그 맑고 순수했던 동심을
Don't forget when you're a child
시간이 흘러도
Let it stay in your mind
Don't live your life like you have a thousand years
Ready for you to waste your time on regrets
Don't you ever
You will never, no
Should've never gave it up
Should've never said "I can't"
Judging me for who I am
Should've never listened, no
Should've followed my own dreams
It's better late than never, yeah, yeah
Don't (Don't) forget when you're a child (Forget when you're a child)

Don't forget when you're a child
Even when time passes Let it stay in your mind
Don't live your life like you have a thousand years
Ready for you to waste your time on regrets
Don't you ever
You will never
Don´t forget the dreams
you had on your mind
Don´t question yourself anymore
Even if the world polluts you
Don´t let yourself be robbed, of the pure innocence of Childhood
Don't forget when you're a child
Even when time passes Let it stay in your mind
Don't live your life like you have a thousand years
Ready for you to waste your time on regrets
Don't you ever
You will never, no
Should've never gave it up
Should've never said "I can't"
Judging me for who I am
Should've never listened, no
Should've followed my own dreams
It's better late than never, yeah, yeah
Don't (Don't) forget when you're a child (Forget when you're a child)
Forget when your a child
Let it stay in your mind
Don't live your life like you have a thousand years
Ready for you to waste your time on regrets
Don't you ever
You will never, no
The song Childhood by The Rose is about memories of childhood and how, over time, we tend to forget the innocence and joy of life that we had as children.
In the first verse, Woosung reminisces about his childhood when he used to stay up late into the night, imagining all sorts of things and dreaming about his life when everything seemed so beautiful and possible. However, as he grows older, he no longer dreams and is tired of feeling down, thinking that the world revolves around him and often hoping that someone will come and save him.
In the chorus, the band reminds us not to forget our childhood as we grow older and face various challenges in life. The lyrics warn us against living our lives as if we have a thousand years and wasting our time in regret. Therefore, we must hold onto our childhood memories and never forget the dreams we once had and the passion we felt as children.
In the second verse, Dojoon urges us not to forget our dreams and not let the world destroy our innocence and pure, beautiful souls. He reminds us to hold onto our childhood memories, the dreams we once had, and the hope we once felt.
The bridge is about not giving up and not becoming victims of societal expectations. They encourage us to follow our dreams and not listen to those who judge us for who we are.
Overall, the song is a heartfelt reminder of the importance of holding onto our childhood memories, the happiness and innocence we felt as children, and the passion and dreams we once had in our lives.
