메아리(Far Away Echo)
K-pop girl group pop ballad melody / acoustic-driven, clean and beautiful / 4/4 / 86–92 BPM / A minor (or E minor) / intimate fingerpicked acoustic guitar intro (2–4 bars), soft piano supporting root + gentle voicings, airy pad, subtle room reverb, wide stereo but uncluttered. Verse topline: narrow range, conversational, mostly stepwise motion, short phrases with clear rests every 1–2 lines for breathing; ends with soft downward resolution and warm cadence. Pre-chorus: gradual lift in pitch contour, slightly longer note values, suspended tones for tension, light harmony in thirds, minimal string swell. Chorus: sing-along hook “Far Away Echo” (3-word chant) placed on strong beats, simple down–up–down motif, mix of short syllables and one held vowel “oh”, memorable cadence, no heavy melisma. Groove: very light kick, muted snap or soft brush snare, restrained bass, keep percussion minimal. Bridge/solo: sax-like lead or vocalize echoes the hook with breathy tone, call-and-response ad-libs.

Lyrics
[Intro]
오-오…
Far Away Echo…
[Verse 1]
다시 들리니?
바람이 아니야.
내 안의 빈자리.
웃던 날들은
먼지처럼 내려.
손끝에 남아.
하늘은 넓고,
나는 작아져.
하루가 길어.
너는 평화였지.
하지만 평화는
늘 늦게 와.
[Pre-Chorus]
멀어진 걸 알아.
그래도 불러.
조용히, 더.
[Chorus | HOOK]
나는 메아리.
단지 메아리.
Far Away Echo (오-오)
빛을 따라 떠돌다
어둠에 접혀 가.
Far Away Echo (오-오-오)
넌 날 못 찾아.
나도 날 놓쳐.
너는 너무 멀리 있어…
[Verse 2]
바람이 날 데려가.
너의 눈가로.
잠깐 스쳐.
노래가 맑게 울려.
너의 우주에
조용히 녹아.
그리운 건,
너의 목소리…
아니, 내 목소리.
입술이 그리운 건,
따뜻한 믿음이
사라져서야.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
닿지 못해도,
난 노래해.
오늘도.
[Chorus | HOOK]
나는 메아리.
단지 메아리.
Far Away Echo (오-오)
빛을 따라 떠돌다
어둠에 접혀 가.
Far Away Echo (오-오-오)
넌 날 못 찾아.
나도 날 놓쳐.
너는 너무 멀리 있어…
[Vocalize / Sax]
아-아-아-아,
(아-아-아-아)
아-아-아-아,
(아-아-아-아)
[Final Chorus | 변주]
나는 메아리.
너를 부르며,
나를 불러.
Far Away Echo (오-오)
멀어진 만큼
깊어진 마음.
아픈 만큼
선명해져.
Far Away Echo (오-오-오)
너는 너무 멀리 있어…
그래도 나는
오늘을 살아.
[Coda]
오-오…
Far Away Echo…
너는 너무 멀리 있어…
나는 덧없는 메아리야…
