Lyrics of Closer Than This

The music video also showed Jimin sitting busy writing his song and celebrating with his team members. For the chorus part of the song, Jimin chose several children to sing it. The lyrics of the song go: "Do you also remember? The moment we first met/ We were so shy and awkward back then/ Now that I look back/ We have come this far in just a blink of an eye/ We walked it together, alongside each other/ At times I fell and shed tears/ We comforted each other, with a pat on the back."
