Translation of the song Sig det nu (I Forgot) artist Annika Aakjær

Jeg glemte tiden, den forsvandt bare

I forgot about time, it just disappeared

Nu hænger den fast i dem, vi var

Now it's stuck in the people we used to be

Du var så smuk, da solen ble' mat

You were so beautiful when the sun turned matte

At jeg glemmer, du ikk' ka' bli' i nat

That I forget that you can't stay tonight

Og jeg glemmer, at ting ikk' er som før

And I forget that things aren't like before

Og der' ting, jeg ikk' længer' må gør'

And there are things I no longer can do

På så'n en dag så smuk som få

On such a day as beautiful as few

Er det svært at forstå, at du er nødt til at gå

It's hard to understand that you've got to leave

Så sig mig igen, er du min ven?

So tell me again, are you my friend?

Du plejed' at være meget mer'

You used to be much more

Dit hjem sku' være mit hjem

Your home should be my home

Og min have sku' være din have

And my garden should be your garden

Så hvorfor er det ikk'?

So why isn't it?

Sig det nu

Please tell me

For jeg forstår det ikk'

'Cause I don't understand

Du holder dine hænder til dit eget skød

You keep your hands to your own lap

Mens jeg prøver på ikk' at mød'

As I try not to meet

Dit blik, som jeg ved ka' gennemsku'

Your eyes, which I know can see through

Hvert et skjold, jeg overhovedet ku' finde på at brug'

Every shield I could possibly make myself use

Og det værste er, at jeg pluds'lig ser

And the worst part is that I suddenly see

Nu hvor du ikk' rigtigt er her mer'

Now that you're not really here anymore

Og de ord, jeg sku' ha' sagt, som aldrig kom

And the words I should have said, but never came

Da du stadig var min at holde om

When you still were mine to hold tight

Så sig mig igen, er du min ven?

So tell me again, are you my friend?

For jeg vil være meget mer'

'Cause I want to be much more

Dit hjem ska' være mit hjem

Your home will be my home

Og min have ska' være din have

And my garden will be your garden

Så hvorfor er det ikk'?

So why isn't it?

Sig det nu

Please tell me

For jeg forstår det ikk'

'Cause I don't understand
