To Die For
Kygo & St. Lundi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To help me remember what the feeling was like
When we were all alone watching late-night TV
Your hand in mine
Oh, what I wouldn't do to get back to you
'Cause every time we touch, it cuts the deepest
But I don't wanna fall if it's not in love
You are, you are
To die, to die for
All I ever needed
You're the kind of high that keeps me wanting more
Oh, I can't let go, I'm forever yours
You are, you are
To die, to die for
(You are, you are)
To die, to die for
(You are, you are)
To die, to die for
Trust me, there's so much more that I need to say
(Hear me out, mmm)
Oh, I can't let another moment escape
(So take me back, ah)
To summer nights, drinking wine 'til we can't find our feet
You'd lean on me
Oh, what I wouldn't do to get back to you
'Cause every time we touch, it cuts the deepest
But I don't wanna fall if it's not in love
Oh, you stop my heart like you're in my blood
You are, you are
To die, to die for
All I ever needed
You're the kind of high that keeps me wanting more
Oh, I can't let go, I'm forever yours
You are, you are
To die, to die for
(You are, you are)
To die, to die for
Every time we touch
(To die for)
(You are, you are)
(To die for)
To die, to die for
All I ever needed
You're the kind of high that keeps me wanting more
Oh, I can't let go, I'm forever yours
You are, you are
To die, to die for
All I ever needed
You're the kind of high that keeps me wanting more
Oh, I can't let go, I'm forever yours
You are, you are
To die, to die for
"To Die For" is a song about trying to recapture the emotions of a past relationship. The singer is reminiscing about a time when they were "all alone watching late-night TV," with their significant other's hand in theirs. The memory is bittersweet, as the singer longs to return to that time, but knows that it is impossible. They are haunted by the memory of the intense feelings they shared with the other person, and the thought of losing those feelings forever is unbearable.
The chorus reinforces this idea of the intensity and importance of the relationship, with the lines "every time we touch, it cuts the deepest" and "you stop my heart like you're in my blood." The singer acknowledges that the relationship may not have been entirely healthy, as they don't want to fall again "if it's not in love," but they are still drawn to the other person. The title, "To Die For," suggests that the singer believes the relationship was so significant that it is worth sacrificing everything for, even if it means they will suffer.
Overall, the song captures the powerful emotions that can accompany a past relationship, particularly one that was intense and all-consuming. It acknowledges the nostalgia and longing that can come with memories of a past love, while also recognizing that those feelings may not be entirely rational or healthy.
