Forgotten Love is the eleventh single released by AURORA and the second single from her 2nd EP "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]
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 stated in on Twitter.
About this language she created, she stated in an interview: "My own language is an emotional language and it means what you need it to mean in the now. It’s very liberating to sing the words, because I can change the energy in them. My newest song, Forgotten Love, has my own language in the second chorus, and you can feel the melody and instruments without having any input on what I’m saying."
