[Verse 1]
Didn't wanna be a ghost
But you pushed me over and over
Never thought I’d have a vice
Other than you, over and over

[Refrain]
Left you in the sky with the fire below
Thought I had it right, but I’m still

[Chorus]
Lost in the light
And I don’t know what night it is
You’re somewhere else, I’m drinking not to guess
Blurry bodies, but you're on my mind
We let it go now I'm full of rum and regret
I go out just so I can reforget

[Post-Chorus]
I go out, go out

[Verse 2]
I never thought a sunrise
Could burn more than a midnight without you
Already paying for tonight
Head spins like carousel, over and over

[Refrain]
Left you in the sky with the fire below
Thought I had it right, but I’m still

[Chorus]
Lost in the light
And I don’t know what night it is
You’re somewhere else, I’m drinking not to guess
Blurry bodies, but you're on my mind
We let it go now I'm full of rum and regret
I go out just so I can reforget
I go out just so I can reforget
I go out just so I can reforget
I go

[Post-Chorus]
I go out, go out
I go out, just so I
I go out, go out

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.
