Lost In London
David Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You lied to my face
I'm taking a walk by the ocean
We went separate ways
Your feelings were hard just to open
When you said you didn't love me
I didn't know what I was feeling
Baby I gave you something
For a minute I thought you were feening
How could you tell me that you love me and not mean it all
I'm reminiscing about them times when I was holding on
I was your baby and nobody liked it stayed right beside you all the time
And it feels like a movie like it isn't real that's what you decided
Wasn't meant to be no loyalty
I showed you around with some things
I showed you what love really means baby
Like how could you leave me for somebody else
I thought we had something the truth I would tell
Bae you left my heart open and now that it's broken you told me you loved me that's what I was hoping
I know your love was crucial and I really don't wanna lose you
But you can't deny the fact that really no one else can suit you girl
And to be honest I ain't met a girl like you
And I can't change the fact your love was never true I'm lost in love
Lost in love
I'm lost I'm lost baby




I'm lost in love
I'm lost I'm lost baby

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to David & Carr's song "Lost In London" paint a picture of heartbreak and confusion. The singer is grappling with the realization that the person they were in love with didn't actually feel the same way. The song starts by directly addressing this person with the accusation "You lied to my face." We learn from the second line that the singer is finding solace in nature, taking a walk by the ocean, and perhaps trying to calm their emotions.


The rest of the song is a reflection on the relationship that has now ended. The singer recalls giving their all to the person they loved, even when others didn't approve. But they were ultimately hurt when they discovered that this person didn't really love them. The chorus repeats the phrase "Lost in love," underscoring the confusion and sense of being adrift that comes with a shattered relationship. Despite the pain, the singer still expresses a desire to hold onto the person they loved. They acknowledge that this love was "crucial" and that they "really don't wanna lose" this person.

I'm alway surprised when I find people who think it's a good idea to rip the carpet out from under the feet of a teenager - as if the teenage years aren't difficult enough. People who tell their adopted children the truth from the beginning probably do it best - the chosen children rather than the surprise children.

In my case it did not stop the issues when I was a teenager although I had always had the story of being wanted and knew I was loved

Diary of a Real Mom

It shows no matter how good your adopted parents are people always still want to know their birth parents. There is a connection to who your birth parents are. Nurture vs. Nature.

The last mother is a nice person, asking for forgiveness. She really loves her daughter

Thank god for everyone involved in bringing peace and contentment and love back to these kids. ❤️🤗

Never regret telling your loved one the truth! Only regret that you didn't tell them sooner. <3

Ugh! What a WONDERFUL show! I was just balled up in tears!! I can’t wait for more just like em!

I love Long Lost family(UK version is the best), DNA Secrets, and the "I survived" episodes. You'll just keep crying and being amazed. I studied Sociology and just eat it up. It's like brain and soul food at the same time. (also White underbelly and Invisible People are pretty astounding)

Diary of a Real Mom

I thought when I read this, aww come on give me a break. Now here I am crying my eyes out. So sweet how she just jumped into the mom role like they were never apart.

What a wonderful reunion between the Fujian woman and her son. Absolutely beautiful indeed - they both yearned for one another - yearned for this meeting. I hope God blesses them all richly - including David the researcher/investigator.
