INVU Lyrics

[태연 "INVU" 가사]

[Verse 1]
Falling in love
너에겐 난 option
시작부터 다른 너와 나
깨지는 heart
빗나간 네 mention
익숙하거든, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
I think I lost my mind
But it's my kind of love
아끼지 않고 다
쏟아내고는 주저앉아
문득 어느 순간
지친 내가 보여
애쓰고 있지만

[Chorus]
So I can't love you even though I do
밀어내 봐도 난 너를 못 이겨
날 버리고 날 잃을수록
넌 반짝이는 irony
So I-N-V-U (Ooh)
I-N-V-U (Ooh)
I-N-V-U

[Verse 2]
기대지 마
기대하지도 마
몇 번을 되뇌고 되놰도
그 손길 한 번에
무너지는 날 볼 때
네 기분은 어때, no-no, no

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess, I lost my mind
Yeah, it's my kind of love (Love)
늘 처음인 것처럼
서툴러서 또 상처가 나 (서툴러서 또 상처가 나)
무뎌지기 전에 (Ooh)
아물기도 전에
잔뜩 헤집어놔, yeah

[Chorus]
So I can't love you even though I do
밀어내 봐도 난 너를 못 이겨
날 버리고 날 잃을수록
넌 반짝이는 irony
So I-N-V-U, yeah
Yes, I-N-V-U, yeah, yeah, ooh, oh
I-N-V-U
[Bridge]
식은 온기 부서진 맘이
자꾸 날 할퀴어 아파도 못 멈춰
So when you leave, please make it easy
'Cause I-N-V-U, ooh-ah, ooh-ah (I-N-V-U)

[Chorus]
I-N-V-U, ooh, ah, yeah
I-N-V-U
I-N-V-U, ooh
I-N-V-U

About

Genius Annotation

“INVU” is an elegant vintage-pop anthem about envying somebody for their quality, and losing in a downfallen relationship.

The song’s synth-pop influenced track fuses with Taeyeon’s comforting vocals as lyrically the song describes a person’s point of view in a broken relationship as they think the relationship wasn’t meant to last forever in the start. “INVU,” shorten for “I ENVY YOU,” expresses how Taeyeon envies her lover because she wants the quality of her lover.

Additionally, the music video showcases Taeyeon in angelic settings, as she tries to fight off with her bow and arrow, but couldn’t beat her lover in a game of war no matter what. “INVU” is also the title track introducing the heart-breaking concept of TAEYEON’s February 2022 full album of the same name.

What did TAEYEON (태연) say about "INVU"?
Genius Answer

It’s a house-based pop dance song with a dreamy and soft vibe. And the word “ENVY” in English means “jealous.” I think it can be interpreted in many ways. So, the high notes can sound very attractive and I tried to express it in an emotional way.
