夜空を見上げ一人 ほうき星を見たの
一瞬ではじけては 消えてしまったけど
あなたのこと想うと 胸が痛くなるの
今すぐ会いたいよ
だけど空は飛べないから

もしあたしが ほうき星になれたならば
空駆け抜け 飛んでいく
どんな明日が来ても この想いは強い
だからほうき星ずっと 壊れないよ

雨が降って嫌だと ぼやいていた時に
あなたが言ったこと 今でも覚えてる
雨の後の夜空は 綺麗に星が出る
それを考えると
雨も好きになれるよねと

もしあたしが ほうき星になれたならば
溢れる光 降らすよ
いつも悲しい時 夜空見るあなたが
笑顔になるように もっと輝きたい

あなたはいつも一人 何かと戦ってる
傍にいることしか
あたしにはできないけど

もしあたしが ほうき星になれたならば
空駆け抜け 飛んでいく きっと
必ず届く この一瞬の光で
あなたのイマ照らし 空を巡ろう
あたしが ほうき星になれたならば
きっと傍にいてあげる どんな時も

YOUNHA (윤하)

YOUNHA was born on April 29, 1988, in Seoul, South Korea as Go Yun-ha (고윤하) and is a singer-songwriter and actress.

At the age of five, YOUNHA learned how to play the piano, and began singing by the time she was in elementary school. With dreams of becoming a singer, YOUNHA auditioned at many Korean companies, but was ultimately rejected for not being pretty enough for South Korean beauty standards. As a result, YOUNHA went to Japan and eventually made her debut in 2004 under the name ユンナ (the Japanese spelling of her name), dropping out of high school at the age of 16 to pursue her dreams. It also helped that she pursued Japanese language studies while watching the Japanese drama “Gokusen” (2002).

While in Japan, she was wildly popular and achieved success, achieving the nickname “Oricon Comet”, despite not achieving immediate fame until her song “ほうき星 (Comet)” (2005), which was part of the soundtrack to the Japanese animation “Bleach” (2004-2012). The track was also re-released in her native language of Korean, and retitled as “혜성” (Comet in Korean).
