I lost her.
I want her back.
She did things to me that no one else could.
I miss that.
Oh oh oh, I was so wrong about it.
Oh oh oh, can't do a thing about it now, now.
And they say "if it's meant to be, you'll know, know".
I lost her.
I want her back.
She did things to me that no one else could.
I miss that.
I lost her.
I want her back.
She did things to me that no one else could.
I miss that.
I miss that.
I miss that.
(And they say "if you love her, let her go").
(They say "if you love her, let her go").
I miss that.
(And they say "if it's meant to be, you'll know ,know").
(They say "if you love her, let her go").
I miss that.
Oh oh oh, I was so wrong about it.
Oh oh oh, can't do a thing about it now, now.
Oh oh oh, I was so wrong about it.
Oh oh oh, can't do a thing about it now, now.
I lost her.
I want her back.
She did things to me that no one else could.
Damn, I miss that.
See when Lauv was out on tour, he had fans write notes and leave them in what he referred to as the “My Blue Thoughts” box. They could write down whatever it is they wanted and he posted some after each show on his Instagram story. But one note stood out to him that read, “I met a superhero. I lost her. I want her back.” Lauv read this and immediately felt inspired, writing a song that started with those words. Kind of crazy to think that a fan at one of his shows ended up inspiring a song Lauv created with one his best friends, fellow songwriter Michael Pollack. But then Lauv took it upon himself to find out who his mystery co-writer was. These notes were all anonymous, after all!
Lauv explained that two months later, with the help of his team, they discovered the note was from his show in Boston. And from there, after many phone calls and emails, they uncovered the identity of the fan who wrote the note! His name is Martin and he lives in Germany. His girlfriend, Diana, lives in Boston and he was visiting her when he went to Lauv’s concert. Martin ended up going to the show alone though after he and his girlfriend got into an argument and that’s what inspired him to write that little. How crazy is that?
This song has so much feels. It's about missing a person that was once a part of your life -- a person whom you've shared a lot of memories with:( -- a person who made a big impact -- a person that holds a big place in your heart.
