We lost the summer
Dallideon chukguhwa sikkeureoun yeolgideul (neowa)
Nanwo mollae deureotdeon nae ieoponeun (ijen naman)
Yuhaenghan norae, gyosil an konseoteu (but now)
We lost the sunset, now don't know what to do
Nae dallyeok wi first day dwi sumaneun first day
Kkeuchi eomneun 3wol 1irui jeonyeoge nan namgyeojyeo isseo
Nae hwaiteudein imi wasted
Keep lovesick, no vaccine
Nalssireul ileobeorin uri sigyen
Gyeoureseo meomchwo seo isseo
Cause we lost the summer
When we lost each other
Naui gyejeoreul dollyeojwo
Oh, it's all gone
Yeongwonhan winter
Now I just miss ya
Uril dollyeojwo
Oh, it's all gone
We lost the summer
Haru iteul, iljuil tto han dal, il nyeoneul
Na hollo geotgo isseo seotun i jejarigeoreum
We lost the summer
Angmong gateun han jureul tto han dal, il nyeoneul
Neol dasi bogo sipeo binnadeon uriui yeoreum
Long gone we lost the summer
Danideon kapeui muni kkwak jamgigo (and how)
Hansumeul sumgyeo gapgapan mask dwiro (yeogi nama)
Pyojeongi eomneun nae eolguri sileo (you know)
You was my sunset, I wanna make it work
Nae dallyeok wi first day dwi sumaneun first day
Kkeuchi eomneun 3wol 1irui jeonyeoge nan namgyeojyeoisseo
Geu yeongwonhan banghagi

[Korean:]
We lost the summer
달리던 축구화 시끄러운 열기들 (너와)
나눠 몰래 들었던 내 이어폰은 (이젠 나만)
유행한 노래, 교실 안 콘서트 (but now)
We lost the sunset, now don't know what to do
내 달력 위 first day 뒤 수많은 first day
끝이 없는 3월 1일의 저녁에 난 남겨져 있어
내 화이트데인 이미 wasted
Keep lovesick, no vaccine
날씨를 잃어버린 우리 시곈
겨울에서 멈춰 서 있어
Cause we lost the summer
When we lost each other
나의 계절을 돌려줘
Oh, it's all gone
영원한 winter
Now I just miss ya
우릴 돌려줘
Oh, it's all gone
We lost the summer
하루 이틀, 일주일 또 한 달, 일 년을
나 홀로 걷고 있어 서툰 이 제자리걸음
We lost the summer
악몽 같은 한 주를 또 한 달, 일 년을
널 다시 보고 싶어 빛나던 우리의 여름
Long gone we lost the summer
다니던 카페의 문이 꽉 잠기고 (and how)
한숨을 숨겨 갑갑한 mask 뒤로 (여기 남아)
표정이 없는 내 얼굴이 싫어 (you know)
You was my sunset, I wanna make it work
내 달력 위 first day 뒤 수많은 first day
끝이 없는 3월 1일의 저녁에 난 남겨져있어
그 영원한 방학이
반복되는 아침
날씨를 잃어버린 우리 시곈
겨울에서 망가져 있어
Cause we lost the summer
When we lost each other
나의 계절을 돌려줘
Oh, it's all gone
영원한 winter
Now I just miss ya
우릴 돌려줘
Oh, it's all gone
We lost the summer
Hot summer time (우리가)
바랐던 날 (그저 평범한)
여름의 나 (여름의 너)
Can't we go back
Hot summer time (summer time)
사라지지 마 (지금 달려가)
너를 찾아 (우릴 잊지 마)
We go on
We lost the summer
When we lost each other
나의 계절을 돌려줘
Oh, it's all gone
영원한 winter
Now I just miss ya
우릴 돌려줘
Oh, it's all gone
We lost the summer
하루 이틀, 일주일 또 한 달, 일 년을
나 홀로 걷고 있어 서툰 이 제자리걸음
Cause we lost the summer
악몽 같은 한 주를 또 한 달, 일 년을
널 다시 보고 싶어 빛나던 우리의 여름
Long gone we lost the summer

Soobin compared this song to one of their previous works by saying, "'Our Summer' was about the passionate, brilliant, and enjoyable times we spent together with our friends, and 'We Lost The Summer' is, in a way, about the opposite. It reflects the reality of this year with COVID-19, so I suppose our fans would definitely think of the two together."
TXT explained in the media showcase, that this song was partially inspired by the 1998 track "오락실" performed by Han's Band.
"COVID-19 has completely changed our lives, and we wanted to tell a story that only we could tell in this moment," Beomgyu said to Teen Vogue, "'We Lost The Summer' represents this sentiment. Many teenagers could no longer go to school and hang out with each other, passing notes, sharing earbuds, and so on. It's our story but it's still a subject that teens all over the world can relate to. It's the teen perspective and we wanted to address it through our music."
