[Intro]
Can we call it kinda? Yeah
When we met
That seems really good

[Verse 1]
When we met, I wasn't me
I was so numb, yeah, I was so lonely
Out on the run, I wasn't free
And you came along, but you couldn't save me

[Pre-Chorus]
My hesitation and holdin' my breath
I led you into the garden of my loneliness
Wished that you left before it all burned down

[Chorus]
Oh, Julia
I'm sorry what I do to ya
I push and pull and mess with your head
Then get in your bed 'cause I'm weak deep down
Oh, Julia
I wish I never lied to ya
I never meant to hurt you like that
And if I could go back, I'd leave you alone

[Verse 2]
When I left, I wasn't sure
That I could love, love anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
But my hesitation and holdin' my breath
I led you into the garden of my loneliness
Wished that you left before it all burned down

[Chorus]
Oh, Julia
I'm sorry what I do to ya
I push and pull and mess with your head
Then get in your bed 'cause I'm weak deep down
Oh, Julia
I wish I never lied to ya
I never meant to hurt you like that
And if I could go back, I'd leave you alone

[Outro]
I won't lie to you no more
I won't lie to you no more
'Cause I know I did before
Hope you find what you're looking for

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.
