Kygo started to learn to play the piano at age six through lessons. He decided to have a go at remixes and creating electronic music after discovering Avicii at age 15-16. After receiving over 80 million hits on YouTube and Soundcloud, Kygo was contacted by both Avicii and Chris Martin of Coldplay to create official remixes of one the artists' songs.
His remix of "I See Fire" entered Romania's Top 40 and remained there for 14 weeks, peaking at Number 2 as of June 3rd, 2014.
When creating/remixing music Kygo uses Logic Studio.
His track "It Ain't Me," with Selena Gomez, has exceeded 1 billion plays on Spotify.
He has an official site at https://www.kygomusic.com/ but at this moment it is about 5 years out of date. (In 2020 it refers to his "hotly anticipated album scheduled for 2015.")
How Many Tears
Kygo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I couldn't find a thing to say
Avoided eyes and pushed the food around my plate
And realized I made a big mistake
'Cause when I chose to see what the choices were
The right one had just shut the door
You left me full of empty spaces
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers
How many tears 'til you come home?
(How many tears 'til you come home?)
How many tears 'til you come home?
(How many tears 'til you come home?)
(How many tears 'til you come home?)
You set the bar for how my heart's supposed to feel
I can't get any lower
And now I wish that back when you were holdin' me
I never looked over my shoulder
'Cause when I chose to see what the choices were
The right one had just shut the door
So come back, baby
You left me full of empty spaces, yeah
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers, so I need to know
How many tears 'til you come home?
How many tears 'til you come home?
How many tears 'til you come home?
(How many tears 'til you come home?)
(How many tears 'til you come home?)
Baby, you left me full of empty spaces
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers
How many tears 'til you come home?
(How many tears 'til you come home?)
The lyrics of "How Many Tears" by Kygo & Sam Feldt depict a sense of regret and longing for a lost love. The singer is reflecting on a failed relationship, acknowledging their mistake of not appreciating their partner when they had them. The song begins with the singer feeling uncomfortable during a dinner date, unable to find the right words to say and realizing the magnitude of their mistake. They lament that the right choice had already slipped away.
The chorus expresses the singer's desperate plea for their ex-lover to return. They feel empty and unable to replace the void left behind, struggling to fill their life with strangers. The repeated question "how many tears 'til you come home?" reveals the depth of their sorrow and the longing they have for their partner's return. They recognize that their ex-lover set the standard for how their heart should feel, and now they can't sink any lower without them. Looking back, they regret ever looking over their shoulder when their partner was there, acknowledging that the right choice had closed the door.

Put on a face and made it to a dinner date
I pretended to be okay and went on a dinner date
I couldn't find a thing to say
I couldn't find the right words to express myself
Avoided eyes and pushed the food around my plate
I avoided eye contact and played with my food instead
And realized I made a big mistake
And then I understood that I made a significant error
'Cause when I chose to see what the choices were
Because when I decided to assess my options
The right one had just shut the door
The best choice was no longer available
So come back, baby
So please return, my love
You left me full of empty spaces
Your absence has left me feeling empty
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers
I can't fill that void with unfamiliar people
How many tears 'til you come home?
How many tears will I shed until you return?
You set the bar for how my heart's supposed to feel
You established the standard for how my heart should feel
I can't get any lower
I can't feel any worse
And now I wish that back when you were holdin' me
And now I wish that when you held me
I never looked over my shoulder
I never doubted our love and searched for something else
So come back, baby
So please come back, my love
You left me full of empty spaces, yeah
Your absence has left me with a profound emptiness, yeah
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers, so I need to know
I can't replace you with strangers, so I need to know
How many tears 'til you come home?
How many tears will I shed until you return?
Baby, you left me full of empty spaces
Darling, you left me with a sense of emptiness
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers
I can't seem to fill those gaps with unfamiliar faces
How many tears 'til you come home?
How many tears will I shed until you return?

[Verse 1]
Put on a face and made it to a dinner date
I couldn't find a thing to say
Avoided eyes and pushed the food around my plate
And realised I made a big mistake
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when I chose to see what the choices were
The right one had just shut the door
[Chorus]
So come back, baby
You left me full of empty spaces
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers
How many tears 'til you come home?

How many tears 'til you come home?

You set the bar for how my heart's supposed to feel
I can't get any lower
And now I wish that back when you were holdin' me
I never looked over my shoulder

The right one had just shut the door
[Chorus]
So come back, baby
You left me full of empty spaces, yeah
Can't seem to fill them up with strangers, so I need to know
How many tears 'til you come home?
How many tears 'til you come home?
