No reason/when X can't sing

Dear C,  
          
         JB kneel down on one knee and said:
           “It’s been so hard to say these words, but I’ll say them now,”
           “Haesung, I like you.” 
           “Why? I don’t have a reason,”
            “No matter how much I think, there are no reasons, just like I have no reasons for loving music.”
             " For now, my heart tells me I just want to sing with you on the stage. " (*self translated this line. But others above are taken from allkpop. )
           The words sounded familiar. And I recalled I said it to you long time ago, when you asked for the reason. The pain had long gone away now, but I would have reply you with the same answer if you asked me again. But I will not repeat the same mistake twice.
           Anyway, I like JB's version of "When I can't sing 내가 노래를 못해도", compare to 7. The video can be found at youtube. I like the lyrics and the music, which delivers through the insecurity of being famous, yet wanting to be loved like anyone else. Such a sincere piece from JYP. Below is the english translation of the lyrics from "pop!gasa" website:-

Even if I lose everything, if my popularity drops
Even if I can't sing, if I get a different job
Will you still be able to love me for who I am?
 

Do you know that who I am on screen isn't really my everything? (Do you know?)
Do you know that my overflowing confidence makes me even more anxious? (Do you know?)
Standing under the flashing lights, there is a thick shadow behind me


You say that you love me but

Am I really who you love? (Am I?)
You say that you fell for me but
Am I really the one who made you fall for me? (Am I?)
When you are in my arms, looking at me
I want to ask you these questions


Someday, the day will come (the day will come)

I'll come down from the stage where the cheers have decreased
As my shoulders droop down (shoulders droop down)
My head hung low (even then)
Will you stand by my side?
 
I want to ask you

                Well, don't worry, this is a song that I will not sing to you. :P
