Sidelove Lyrics Translation – Un
Un describes a love that feels both heavy and fleeting. A standout line, ‘Love’s formula is always just a shot in the dark,’ captures the uncertainty of romance. The songwriter uses summer and the darkening sky as symbols of time slipping away, adding urgency to the plea for attention.
