Note: There are only a total of four Koreans that are honorary ambassadors to specialized organizations under UN – music conductor Jung Myunghoon, figure skater Kim Yuna, Actor Jang Donggun, and now JYJ!!! This means that JYJ will be the *first* K-POP artist to be the honorary ambassadors for a UN organization!

Just looking at the boys laugh makes me happy! >_<

Hope you enjoy~

Lyrics by.. Kim Jaejoong

.

I can’t look at you even when I have my eyes open

I can’t find your heart which has become cloudy amongst the worn out memories

I can’t do more because I’m tied and cried too much

No matter how much I think, I think I’ll be okay when if I see you

.

I want to protect you… even your bad habits make me smile when I’m tired

Although it may be difficult, I’m going to say that I love you until the day you first come into my arms

.

I can’t smile, I can’t remember even when I smile…

today also feels like it may disappear like a dream when I open my eyes

Even when I see you, I feel like you aren’t with me

I guess I’m still awkward at expressing my feelings… to love you

.

I want to protect you… even your bad habits make me smile when I’m tired

Although it may be difficult, I’m going to say that I love you until the day you first come into my arms

.

Will you become happy when you leave me to find a different warmth?

Even so I can’t let you go baby

It’s going to hurt even more than dying

.

I love you.. more than anyone… no, I’m next to you

I’m holding your hand

I can’t give you to anyone else’s arms…  my heart cannot let you go… why

지켜줄께

노래.. 김재중

작사.. 김재중

.

눈뜨고도 널 바라보지 못해 지친 추억에 흐려진 너의 맘을 난 찾지 못해
많이 울고 지쳐 더 이상 못해 생각해도 너를 보면 괜찮을 것 같아

지켜주고 싶어 너의 잘못된 나쁜 버릇들까지도 힘든 날 웃게 만드는거야
좀 힘들겠지만 널 사랑해 라고 말도 할거야 먼저 내 품에 오는 날까지

웃지 못해 웃어도 기억 못해 오늘 하루도 꿈처럼 눈뜨면 사라질 것 같은
널보고도 곁에 없는 것 같아 표현이 서투른가봐 널 사랑하기엔

지켜주고 싶어 너의 잘못된 나쁜 버릇들까지도 힘든 날 웃게 만드는거야
좀 힘들겠지만 널 사랑해 라고 말도 할거야 먼저 내 품에 오는 날까지

혹시 다른 온기를 찾아 내게 떠나가 행복해 할거니
그래도 널 보낼 수 없어 baby 죽기보다 더 아플 텐데

내가 널 사랑해.. 다른 누구도 아니 네 앞에 있잖아
내가 니 손을 잡고 있잖아
누군가의 품에 줄 수 없어 애써 웃고 있잖아 보낼 수 없어하는 맘을 왜
