[Verse 1: Lauv]
I wish that you and I lived in The Sims
We could build a house and plant some flowers and have kids
But we're both at some trashy Halloween party downtown
And I'll probably never see you again
I wish that we lived on a VHS
I'd erase the things I said and that I'll probably say again
Hit rewind on all the times I got lost in my head
But I guess I'll never see you again
I'll probably never see you again

[Chorus: Lauv]
Ooh, goddamn
I wish we would've met on another night, baby
Maybe then I wouldn't have let you leave me
Yeah, ooh, goddamn
I wish we would've met on another night, baby
In another life, baby
In another

[Post-Chorus: Lauv]
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have

[Verse 2: Miquela]
I wish that we met walkin' round the MoMa
Yeah, I'd say "Nice to meet you"
Instead of saying "Nice to know ya"
I'd try to impress you with some bullshit 'bout Monet
At least I wouldn't be too drunk to stay
And I wouldn't have let you slip away

[Chorus: Lauv, with Miquela]
Ooh, goddamn
I wish we would have met on another night, baby
Maybe then I wouldn't have let you leave me
Yeah, ooh, goddamn
I wish we would have met on another night, baby
In another life, baby
In another (Uh)

[Post-Chorus: Lauv & Miquela]
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have

[Outro: Lauv & Miquela]
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you
I wouldn't have let you leave me

With an affection for electronic and R&B sounds, infused with his soulful bedroom vocals and airy beats, Ari Staprans Leff, known professionally as Lauv, has burst onto the music scene with his intimate take on romantic pop.

Lauv’s musical beginnings started in childhood, learning strings as well as playing piano, but neither captivated his interest. However, his connection with music grew when he picked up a guitar at the age of 11. From there, Lauv became obsessed with expressing himself musically, which channeled into an interest in songwriting.

Eventually he made his way to New York University (NYU) in 2012, and entered the prestigious Music Technology Program there, having expanded his music interests into jazz and electronic music production in high school to add to his diversified portfolio.
