Highs and Goodbyes
Big Naughty • From “Between Cobalt and Navy”
Highs and Goodbyes Lyrics Translation (from “Between Cobalt and Navy”)
The songwriter mentions the word ‘Annyeong,’ which means both hello and goodbye, to highlight how a single word can mark the start and end of a relationship. A key line translates to, ‘With that one word, you and I became an ‘us.” The lyrics explore how love can turn strangers into companions and back again.
