"Forgotten Love" is the fourteenth single released by AURORA and the second single from her 2nd album Infections of a Different Kind - Step 1. On August 17, 2018 the song was officially released worldwide.

About the song

"'Forgotten Love' is a song I wrote about how when we choose to fall in love with someone, either a partner or even just the love you have for a friend, we know the risk it takes. How much it would hurt if we would lose this person who we love this much." - AURORA[1]

About the cover art of the single, AURORA explained on her Instagram account on the song's one year birthday, "I painted this self portrait last minute cause we didn’t have any cover for it. Or I had been painting it for a while, but I didn’t show it to anyone before I realized this would be a perfect fit. I had to paint in-between festival shows, and every time I came home again the painting still hadn’t dried off, so I could continue like no time had ever passed. It was a beautiful time-pocket for me. Still feeling the touch from the people of the past."[2]

Lyrics

Can you tell if I'm cold?
If I'm out of daydreams?
If I lose what is loved?
Will a new love awake me?

I am touched by wonder
When I'm blind in the dark

But you drown me in daylight
Don’t swim with me darling
I prefer the sound of you
When you are away

If I am left with a rose in my hand, let it die
It's the beauty in forgotten love
And I don't care if you don't understand why I cry
It's the beauty in forgotten love

I forget how emotions dance
When they aren’t inside of me
I forget how the sun feels
When she isn’t around me

And my dreams become sweeter
When something is missing
I'm in love with the hunt itself
It makes me feel alive
Alive

If I am left with a rose in my hand, let it die
It's the beauty in forgotten love
And I don't care if you don't understand why I cry
It's the beauty in forgotten love

Reslianna Faresuu
Hongaaah firlessiranna
Faressu hongaaah
Firelessinaniree suranna
Rukireee rukireee
Resilanna faresuu
Hungaaah
Firelessina firelessina firelessina*

I release my body
And there is no ghost of you inside my mind
I'm moving on and thank God you let me try
You are the reason I can dance within a fire of goodbyes, of goodbyes
I can lie in the dark room without the feeling that I'm lonely

(It's the beauty in forgotten love)

If I am left with a rose in my hand, let it die
It's the beauty in forgotten love
And I don't care if you don't understand why I cry
It's the beauty in forgotten love
(It's the beauty in forgotten love)
(It's the beauty in forgotten love)

The third verse is in an imaginary language made by AURORA. She confirmed in on Twitter.[3]

Demo

Can you tell if I'm cold?
If I'm out of daydreams?
If I lose what is loved?
Will a new love awake me?

I am touched by wonder
When I'm blind in the dark

But you drown me in daylight
Don’t swim with me darling
I prefer the sound of you
When you are away

Teardrops are the corpses of a sweet goodbye/I take in what touches my drunken skin
Hold around myself, my beloved twin

If I am left with a rose in my hand, let it die
It's the beauty in forgotten love
And I don't care if you don't understand why I cry
It's the beauty in forgotten love

I forget how emotions dance
When they aren’t inside of me
I forget how the sun feels
When she isn’t around me

And my dreams become sweeter
When something is missing
I'm in love with the hunt itself
It makes me feel alive
Alive

If I am left with a rose in my hand, let it die
It's the beauty in forgotten love
And I don't care if you don't understand why I cry
