NCT WISH – Melt Inside My Pocket (English Translation) Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
It’s broken again
Even now that we’re together
I’m losing control
It’s pathetic, I’m frozen like ice cream, yeah
Our relationship is going the way your heart
Wants (Yo)
Yeah, I’m a, I’m a mess (I’m a mess)

Anything you asked, got me say yes

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to tell you, this sweetness I’ve been hiding
Never perfect time
Somehow it’s awkward, I keep hesitating
Time keeps passing, in my pocket, ah, ah
I’ve hidden it, ah, ah, you can’t see it
Chocolate that I couldn’t take out Right now, the moment to tell you my heart

[Chorus]
Don’t wanna be a fool
Melted love inside my pocket
I guess I held it too tightly in my hand
Gotta let you know, woah
I have to take it out now (Say it before it melts)
Melt inside my pocket (Pocket)

[Verse 2]
I don’t have time for this
My chance is slipping away
Let’s be braver, step it up
I waited, waited for so long
I’ma get you, get you in my arms
(One more step) Say you like me

(No regrets) What’s going on in my head, overload

[Pre-Chorus]
Never perfect time
Somehow it feels awkward, I keep hesitating
Kept it inside but I know I can’t hide
Your two eyes that look at me only have smiles

[Bridge]
My heart is real, give me something precious
I’m holding on tight again in case I drop it, chocolate
This love’s too real, accept my heart
Before it melts

[Chorus]
Don’t wanna be a fool
Melted love inside my pocket
I guess I held it too tight
Gotta let you know, woah

[Post-Chorus]
You’ve been waiting? I’ll take my shot (Woah, woah-woah)
This love’s too good to let it rot, woah
Melt inside my pocket, I can’t stop it

[Chorus]
Don’t wanna be a fool
Melted love inside my pocket (No)
I guess I held it too tight
Gotta let you know, woah
I have to take it out now (Say it before it melts)
Melt inside my pocket (Pocket)

✍️ Step-by-Step Breakdown

🎵 Intro

“Yeah, yeah”

Sets a playful, slightly anxious tone, hinting at the internal excitement brewing inside.

🎤 Verse 1

“고장 났어 또 / 둘이 같이 있는 지금도…”

“I’m broken again” — even being next to their crush makes them so nervous they feel “broken” or frozen like ice cream. 🍦
The feeling of losing control when in love.
Their relationship dynamic is based on the crush’s feelings — they feel vulnerable and powerless.

“Anything you asked, got me say yes”

Willingness to do anything for the person they like — pure devotion. 🫶

🌟 Pre-Chorus

“전하고 싶어, 감춰왔던 이 달콤함…”

They’ve been hiding their sweet feelings (symbolized by chocolate 🍫).
The perfect time never seems to come, making them hesitate.

“숨겨놓아, 보이지 않잖아 / 꺼내지 못한 chocolate…”

The heart (love) has been kept hidden in a pocket, like melting chocolate — the longer they wait, the more fragile and messy it becomes.

🎶 Chorus

“Don’t wanna be a fool / 녹아버린 love inside my pocket”

They don’t want to lose the chance to confess their love.
The love is melting away — time-sensitive, they must act fast! ⏳
Love held too tightly, without expressing it, can disappear.

🎤 Verse 2

“이럴 시간 없어 / 내 기회가 흘러가잖아…”

Realizing that time is running out to confess.
They urge themselves to step up and finally tell the truth. 💪

“말해 좋아한다고”

They plan to say “I like you” directly. 💬❤️

🌟 Pre-Chorus 2

“Kept it inside but I know I can’t hide…”

Admitting they can’t keep hiding their emotions anymore because their eyes (and smiles) betray them. 👀✨

🎶 Chorus (Repeated)

Each time the chorus comes back, the urgency increases: Tell them before the love “melts” completely!

🌈 Bridge

“내 맘은 진짜야 소중한 걸 줄래…”

A heartfelt promise: their love is real and precious.
The chocolate again symbolizes the fragile but genuine emotion they want to protect. 🍫💖

🔥 Post-Chorus

“This love’s too good to let it rot…”

Reinforces the idea that true love must not be wasted or lost because of fear. 🚀

🎶 Final Chorus

Final push to confess — it’s now or never!
