If you ever want to leave me.
Please bring me your thread.
The thread that only I can feel.

If you really have to leave me.
Please bring me your thread.
And I will tie the thread to my heart. 

Ooh- Please don't go far away.
I don’t want to feel my heart ache.

Ooh- Please don't make the thread tight.
Then I’ll be sad to feel you’re far apart.

If you want to stay by my side.
I'll bring you my thread.
The thread that only you can feel.

If you have to stay by my side.
I'll bring you my thread.
And you can tie the thread to your heart. 

Ooh- I won't go far away.
I don’t want to make your heart ache.

Ooh- I'll never make the thread tight.
Then you'll be happy to feel I'm not apart.

3
If we ever have to be apart.
Let's tie each other up 
by the thread that only we can feel.

The Thread - John Given (Demo)

On a windswept field in Ireland,
a man turned scarecrow begins to sing—softly, gently.

The words he could never speak
slowly melt into melody...
A romantic acoustic guitar and a cinematic orchestra
walk beside him in harmony,
until the breeze itself becomes a song—
quietly knocking at your heart.

This album is unrequited love.
A single fleeting moment of spring—
warm, yet just out of reach,
and all the more tender because of it.

Each track is like a letter,
carefully slipped into your hands,
gently waking forgotten feelings of love,
one page at a time.

“These are the loves we never said out loud—
feelings buried like seeds beneath the snow,
waiting for spring to bloom again.”

Prefer

Prefer - John Given + Ryuhiichun (Mastered)

Where the flute of the eastern sea
meets the strings of the western ocean,

Somewhere on an island in between,
a scarecrow begins to sing once more.

At first,
a quiet flutter like a trembling heart...

Then,
a sorrowful melody, like the sight of someone walking away...

And in the end,
warm and powerful sounds—
like an embrace after a long wait—
gently surround you like a soft rain.

This album is the season of love.

From the heartbeat of a beginning
to the tears of an ending,

and the miracle
of a spring day
when we meet again...

Thus, instruments from East and West come together,

blooming once more in a once-empty place,
whispering words of love softly to you.

Like a flower that blooms again,
it simply returns in another form.”

A Little Longer

A Little Longer - John Given + Bruce Park + TJ + Kuna + Ha Yijeong + MA (Mastered)

The sun sets, and rises again.
In between, music quietly prepares for the future.
The voice of John Givens the scarecrow is no longer just one.

A trio blending Eastern and Western languages,
a sound where layers of time are intertwined—
the breath of the present and the light of a distant future walk side by side in this song.
Like the moment a flower blooms through melting snow,
this album is the hurried dream and small hope of the scarecrows.

Between a painful past and a hopeful tomorrow,
this music holds the peace we’ve long wished for, lighting a path to your heart.

“Because music is the brightest way to call in the coming spring.”

Hold your hands tight - John Given

Why do the clocks only turn to the right? 
Does time just go to the right? 
Why should a bride always wear pure white? 
Does she really like that? 

On the street full of crowd, 
Oh my love... 
If you ask, ask me that. 
I can't help but hold your hands, 
hold your hands tight. 

Why do stories always come from the left? 
Where did you and I come from? 
Why do men like ordinary black? 
Is it their choice? or whose? 

At a party full of people, 
Oh my love... 
If you ask, ask me that. 
I can't help but kiss your eyes, 
kiss your eyes soft. 

Why do we have both hands? And the eyes? 
Why do we have to be you and I? 

On the way home full of stars,
Oh my love. 
Hold me tight. Hold me tight. 
I can't help but hold your hands.
Hold your hands tight.
