[Verse 1]
I could've sworn it was a dream
When I kissed your lips and fell (Uh)
Saw a different side of me (Ah)
It's like I didn't hate myself

[Pre-Chorus]
At first, I thought that he was just a friend
But then I heard that you were loving him
You broke my heart and I don't really think that you mind

[Chorus]
Oh, you build me up and turn me on
You play me like your favorite song
But I guess that you were never really mine (Oh)
You made me feel like I was yours
You made me feel so insecure
But I guess that you were never really mine

[Post-Chorus]
Woo
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 2]
So cross my heart and hope to die
Never date a girl like you
After all the shit you put me through
Yeah, all you ever did was lie
Pants on fire, pants on fire

[Pre-Chorus]
Guess you can't find love in Mollywood
No, you can't find love when you're searching for better
Hope you find something better, either way it's whatever
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, you build me up and turn me on
You play me like your favorite song
But I guess that you were never really mine (Oh)
You made me feel like I was yours
You made me feel so insecure
But I guess that you were never really mine

[Post-Chorus]
Woo
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
You made me feel like I was yours
You made me feel so insecure
But I guess that you were never really mine

[Outro]
(I could've sworn it was a dream)

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.
