Lose My Mind
Dean Lewis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I see the water covering your teardrops on your face
And I know that I broke all your rules
Oh, now you're looking at me, and I'm looking at you like a fool
But, you don't know what it feels like to fall in love with you
No, you don't know what it's like when you can't go back
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
No, when I ain't got you
No, no, no, I ain't got you, no
So come on inside, you catch a cold
Oh, darling the storm will pass when you grow old
But you stand next to me with a look in your eyes
And you say goodbye, you say goodbye
And you say goodbye
But, you don't know what it's like to lose you
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
And how can I not win when I'm always bound to lose?
When I'm always bound to
'Cause I tried to hold on tight to make you mine, but I lost each time
And I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
But I think it's time to let you go
To let your heart find a home
I need to let you go
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
And how I can win when I'm always bound to lose
No, I ain't got you
No, no, no, I ain't got you, oh
Dean Lewis's song "Lose My Mind" is a melancholic ballad about the pain that comes with losing a loved one. The song begins with the artist describing the sad sight of a person walking in the rain with teardrops on their face. It is evident that the two people have gone through a rough patch in their relationship, and the singer admits that he broke all of their partner's rules. The feeling of regret and foolishness is palpable, and it seems that the characters cannot undo the past to get back to where they were before.
In the chorus, Lewis speaks directly to his lover, stating that he only loses his mind when he doesn't have them around. Even though he might appear to be winning at other things in life, without his lover, he is always bound to lose. He tries to convince himself that time will pass, and the storm will end, but he knows deep down, it will not be the same without his partner by his side. In the bridge, the artist acknowledges that he needs to let his partner go to allow them to find a new home for their heart. It is a painful decision, but he recognizes that he cannot hold on anymore.

I see you walking through the rain
I observe you walking in the rain
And I see the water covering your teardrops on your face
I notice the rainwater mixing with tears on your face
And I know that I broke all your rules
I understand that I broke all the boundaries set by you
Oh, now you're looking at me, and I'm looking at you like a fool
Currently we exchange awkward looks
But, you don't know what it feels like to fall in love with you
You cannot understand the sensation of falling in love with you
No, you don't know what it's like when you can't go back
You cannot comprehend what it's like to be unable to undo things
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
I experience mental distress when I'm devoid of you
And how can I not win when I'm always bound to lose
I always appear to be on the losing end regardless of the effort I put in
So come on inside, you catch a cold
If you come indoors, you'll catch a cold
Oh, darling the storm will pass when you grow old
You'll recover from the current hurdles with time
But you stand next to me with a look in your eyes
You're standing next to me with a specific expression on your face
And you say goodbye, you say goodbye
You bid farewell to me
But, you don't know what it's like to lose you
You cannot understand the feeling of losing you
'Cause I tried to hold on tight to make you mine, but I lost each time
I attempted to possess you, but I failed repeatedly
But I think it's time to let you go
It's time for me to release you
To let your heart find a home
Allowing your heart to discover a new abode
No, no, no, I ain't got you, oh
I currently don't have you

[Verse 1]
I see you walking through the rain
And I see the water covering your teardrops on your face
And I know that I broke all your rules
Oh, now you're looking at me, and I'm looking at you like a fool
But, you don't know what it feels like to fall in love with you
No, you don't know what it's like when you can't go back
[Chorus]
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
And how I can win when I'm always bound to lose
Oh, when I ain't got you
No-no, I ain't got you
[Verse 2]
So come on inside and catch a cold
Oh, darling the storm will pass when you grow old
As you stand next to me with a look in your eyes
And you say goodbye, and you say goodbye
And you say goodbye
But, you don't know what it's like to lose you
[Chorus]
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
And how I can win when I'm always bound to lose? (always bound to lose)
'Cause I tried to hold on tight to make you mine, but lost each time
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
[Bridge]
But I think it's time to let you go
To let your heart find a home
I need to let you go
[Chorus]
'Cause I only lose my mind when I ain't got you
And how I can win when I'm always bound to lose
'Cause I ain't got you
No-no, I ain't got you
Dean, this is so beautiful.
