Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation

It's been 7 minutes now since I lost my way

It doesn't seem like long, but my whole world has changed

It's in all the little things, when you smile now it stings

It's been 7 minutes since I lost the girl of my dreams

It's been half an hour now since I dropped you home

And I'm driving past the places we both know

Past the bar where we first kissed and that movie that we missed

'Cause we were hanging out in the parking lot

Now I sink a little deeper, think a little clearer

Looking at myself through these newfound eyes

Is it too late to turn around?

I'm already halfway out of town

Now I know how I let you down

Oh, I finally figured it out

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

Radio's playing songs for me and you

'Chasing Cars' reminds me of nights in your room

Drinking wine under your window, back when life was so damn simple

How the hell did I end up losing you?

Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm

Is it too late to turn around?

I'm already halfway out of town

Now I know how I let you down

Oh, I finally figured it out

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

If I came back now, would you still be there?

If I come around, would you even care?

If I came back now, would you still be there,

If I come around, would you even care?

Is it too late to turn around?

I'm already halfway out of town

Now I know how I let you down

Oh, I finally figured it out

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

I forgot to love you, love you, love you

I forgot to love you, love you, love you
