The Magic Numbers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now that you noticed it all went wrong
I've been, I've been thinking
That you don't know me any more
Don't let the sun be the one to change you baby
I want to learn how to love, if I'm to know
Cause I want to go where the people go
Darling, what'cha gonna say now?
Now that you noticed it all went wrong
Looks like I'm driving, my friends are all crazy
Oh they suddenly don't know me anymore
Don't let the sun be the one to change you baby
I want to learn how to love, if I'm to know
Cause I want to go where the people go
Cause I'm forever lost
Oh yeah, I'm forever lost
Looks like it all went wrong
What am I to do? What am I to do?
Looks like it all went wrong
What am I to do? What am I to do?
Looks like it all went wrong
What am I to do? What am I to do?
Looks like it all went wrong
Don't let the sun be the one to change you baby
I want to learn how to love, if I'm to know
Cause I want to go where the people go
Cause I'm forever lost
Oh yeah, I'm forever lost
Darling, what'cha gonna do now?
Now that you've noticed

The Magic Numbers' song "Forever Lost" is a melancholic exploration of a relationship gone wrong. The song is about a person realizing that their partner no longer knows them, and that they feel lost because of it. The lyrics express the singer's desire to learn how to love and go where the people go, but because they feel forever lost, they don't know how to start.
The opening line "Darling, what'cha gonna do now?" sets the tone for the rest of the song. It's as if the singer is asking their partner what their next move will be. The lines "Looks like I'm driving, my friends are all crazy / Oh they suddenly don't know me anymore" signify that even the singer's friends have noticed that something is wrong with the relationship.
The chorus repeats the idea that the singer is forever lost, which can be interpreted in many different ways. It could mean that they are lost in love, lost in life, or simply lost in their relationship. The plea "Don't let the sun be the one to change you baby" seems to suggest that the singer wants their partner to stay the same, even if they themselves are changing.
Overall, "Forever Lost" is a poignant song that explores the complexities of relationships and the emotions that accompany them. It's a reminder that even though love can be beautiful, it can also be confusing and painful.

Que bonita cancion, en el 2005 yo era todavia un niño pero me trae muy buenos recuerdos esta cancion, una lastima que The Magic Numbers no tenga tanta fama a pesar de que tienen muy buena musica. Sin dudas mi cancion favorita de esta banda.
@AJW2711
Me alegra que disfrutes esta canción y esta banda, también fui un niño en 2005, pero todavía me encantan The Magic Numbers
@TEKCTandmoreLETRAS
Yo por ahí de ese año tenía 13, y me encantaba TMN (como hasta ahora). Me acuerdo que quería tener sus canciones y videos en mi iPod. 😅
@sonial1839
Creo que el problema de los Magic Numbers fue precisamente que no volvieron a hacer música como esta nuevamente. Se tardaron mucho en seguir produciendo y la gente se fue olvidando de ellos. Pero puedo constatar que cuando surgieron con este Disco, subieron como la espuma, pero no se mantuvieron.
@SotovicEntertainment
I have been looking for this song for over 10 years, I can't believe I've found it :')
@lalomoskabaltazar
