Lost in You
De/Vision Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sexual attraction
Though it makes me blind
And I can feel the softness
That really makes you kind
Don't go away, please stay today
Don't hide your face, but see me pray

You're the light that shows the way

Also when I drift away

Also when I drift away

Because I'm lost in you
Lost in you
Because I'm lost in you again
Lost in you

And though I hear your breath again
Close to my ears
And though I feel your

Sexual attraction

You're the light

You're the light

You're the light

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of De/Vision's song Lost in You depicts the intense emotional state of being in love and sexually attracted to someone. The singer acknowledges that this attraction has the power to make him blind to everything else, and conveys his desire to remain in the presence of the person he is lost in. The lyrics also touches on the concept of spiritual connection as the singer humbly expresses his need for the person he is lost in to see him pray. He recognizes the person as a guiding light in his life that helps him find his way even when he is lost.

The repetition of the phrase "Lost in You" emphasizes the depth of the singer's feelings and his inability to resist the attraction he has for the person. This refrain is closely linked to the idea of being hopelessly in love and the intoxicating feeling that comes with it. The mention of "sexual attraction" in the midst of the lyrics is a direct testament to the physical aspect of the relationship, which undoubtedly adds to the overall intensity. The lyrics sketch a poignant picture of the singer surrendering to the pull of his desire, his vulnerability, and his longing for the person who has captured his heart.
