Even if you don't understand, it's alright it's alright. "I know this sounds foolish, but I'm afraid to go to you. I often find that people who are suicidal find comfort in watching the people around them be happy, as it can confirm that they will be alright after they're gone. Watching their happiness and their smiles helps me worry about them less. So I do the same, I watch them live their lives though social media. Just looking at you smiling, just watching over you makes me feel at peace." When I'm deep in my depression, I struggle to reach out to people. He changes his mind saying, "Actually, looking at you and watching over you makes me happy. In the first verse when he is speaking about meeting someone in the middle of the night while everyone is asleep could possibly relate to Jong being a night owl, to avoid others due to him being famous, and to avoid the stigma that comes with depression. Of course, this is only my personal interpretation. I, like many others, have interpreted this song to be about his struggle with depression. It's my favorite Jonghyun song after End of a Day. He will never cease to amaze me.Īs someone who has struggled for years with depression, I can relate personally with this song. His last song tells us that whatever happens, we will be happy again. Maybe it was very obvious or maybe not, but realizing this has brought me even closer to him. " He knows that he will be happy, but he does not know what to do when he is, and he wonders what will happen then. And in the last verse "my tears, my sadness, I will forget them when spring comes, then. He ends with a message of hope "I'm scared to be in front of you, but I'm still going to do it" and "spring will come to me again". He's not happy yet, that's why the "cold winter is still here". When he says "I like to see you from a distance, but I'm afraid of being in front of you" I suppose he means that he wants to be happy but there is something that does not let him, or maybe he is so used to winter that he does not dare to try to be.
Jonghyun wants spring to come (his happiness) but it's still winter (because he's sad). I think spring is a metaphor for happiness.
The first time I heard it I thought it was talking about someone, but now I have another interpretation which I think is more accurate.
