Jin - The Astronaut (English Translation)
You and me, an unending history
Oh, you became my universe
The story of us
Like that asteroid drifting by without a destination
I, too, was just drifting along
Every dream I found in the darkness
Starting anew this story
[Chorus]
When I'm with you
There is no one else
I get heaven to myself
When I’m with you
There is no one else
I feel this way I've never felt
[Verse 2]
You and me
Like a star that doesn't shatter
Becoming your dream
To travel throughout the universe
Just as the Milky Way shines upon the darkest roads
You were shining towards me
The only light found in the darkness
On my path to you
When I’m with you
There is no one else
I get heaven to myself
When I'm with you
There is no one else
I feel this way I never felt
[Bridge]
I feel this way I never felt
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
When I'm with you
There is no one else
I get heaven to myself
When I'm with you
There is no one else
A life, a sparkle in your eyes
Heaven coming through
[Outro]
And I love you
And I love you
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

“The Astronaut” has an acoustic guitar with a calm melody and synth sound. I wrote the lyrics. I expressed how I feel about ARMY who made me who I am as the Jin of BTS. The lyrics are also about me, who flows aimlessly, and you, who find [me,] ARMY. I’m thankful and affectionate for ARMY who made me shine everywhere.
So I hope you listen to this song well.
I think this song goes well with the cool autumn breeze. It’s a refreshing and dreamy song, so I hope you listen to it a lot when it’s released.

In this solo single, I participated in writing lyrics and composing with Coldplay. After “My Universe”, I got to work with Coldplay again. They’re people I really like, so I was really happy and excited while working on them. I’d like to say thank you to Coldplay once again.
