[Verse 1]
Doubt, doubt, doubt
It kills everything that you love
Now, now, now
I’m losing myself on the run

[Pre-Chorus]
And I flew to California
Thought I could leave
Every piece of you right here
Yeah I flew to California
Still wide awake
Oh the sun burned it on clear

[Chorus]
How I still love you
I still love you
But sometimes you have to go
Trade your heart for bones
To know you need to come back home
Come back home

[Verse 2]
Paint-chipped skies
Nothing is ever as it seems
Behind these codeine eyes
Blind to the world in between

[Pre-Chorus]
And I flew to California
Thought I could leave
Every piece of you right here
Yeah I flew to California
Still wide awake
Oh the sun burned it on clear

[Chorus]
How I still love you
I still love you
But sometimes you have to go
Trade your heart for bones
To know you need to come back home
Come back home

[Bridge]
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway

[Chorus]
But I still love you
I still love you
But sometimes you have to go
Trade your heart for bones
To know you need to come back home
Come back home

[Outro]
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway
Getaway
I always thought I needed a getaway

Lauv

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.
