Lost On You
LP Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you get older, plainer, saner
Will you remember all the danger we came from?
Burning like embers, falling, tender
Longing for the days of no surrender years ago
And will you know

So smoke 'em if you got 'em 'cause it's going down
All I ever wanted was you
I'll never get to heaven 'cause I don't know how
Let's raise a glass or two

To all the things I've lost on you, oh
Tell me are they lost on you, oh
Just that you could cut me loose, oh
After everything I've lost on you
Is that lost on you
Oh-oh, oh
Is that lost on you?
Oh-oh
Baby, is that lost on you?
Is that lost on you?

Wishin' I could see the machinations
Understand the toil of expectations in your mind
Hold me like you never lost your patience
Tell me that you love me more than hate me, all the time
And you're still mine

So smoke 'em if you got 'em 'cause it's going down
All I ever wanted was you
Let's take a drink of heaven this can turn around
Let's raise a glass or two

To all the things I've lost on you, oh
Tell me are they lost on you, oh
Just that you could cut me loose, oh
After everything I've lost on you
Is that lost on you
Oh-oh, oh
Is that lost on you?
Oh-oh
Baby, is that lost on you?
Is that lost on you?

(Lost on you)
(Lost on you)

Let's raise a glass or two
To all the things I've lost on you, oh
Tell me are they lost on you, oh
Just that you could cut me loose, oh
After everything I've lost on you




Is that lost on you?
Is that lost on you?

When you get older, plainer, saner
Will you remember all the danger
We came from?
Burnin' like embers, falling tender
Long before the days of no surrender years ago
And well you know?

So smoke 'em if you got 'em
'cause it's going down
All I ever wanted was you
I'll never get to heaven

Tell me that you love me more than hate me
All the time
And you're still mine

[Pre-Chorus]
So smoke 'em if you got 'em
'cause it's going down
All I ever wanted was you
Let's take a drink of heaven
This can turn around

@adrikamohsin7583

which one is right? "When you get older, plainer, saner
When you remember all the danger we came from
Burning like embers, falling, tender
Long before the days of no surrender
Years ago and well you know"

"When you get older, plainer, saner
Will you remember all the danger
We came from?
Burning like embers, falling, tender
Longing for the days of no surrender
Years ago
And will you know"

@@pritsingh9766 Hello dude, believe me, I'm very glad that you shared your experience with us, your thoughts and your feelings, thank you for that. I love the Internet for this opportunity to share personal experiences between different people.
So, here's what I think about your thoughts. I'm sorry, but I think that you've just been unlucky so far, you haven't sincerely fallen in love with anyone yet, and no one has sincerely fallen in love with you either, because love for your money cannot be considered love for you. But trust me, someday it will definitely happen and it will completely change your life. I think you will definitely perceive LP's songs differently. I must warn you, true love is not always reciprocated, but even when it is not reciprocated, it completely changes you and your life for the better.
I am 27, and in my life sincerely and truly I have only been in love twice (once with a guy, another time with a girl) and, ironically, both times are not mutual. And despite the fact that both times my feeling was not mutual, I was able to understand three things:
the first - that same extraordinary love, described in books, films and songs, all the same exists. OMG, Who would have thought! Lol))
second, love is the only cure for human selfishness. I am by nature a very selfish and self-centered person, and only when I am in love, I put the interests of this person above my own and, oddly enough, enjoy it. Only when I am in love, it becomes more pleasant for me to give than to take. And this is probably the most striking and amazing thing about love.
and third, it is true that when you truly love a person, you will let him/her go because the happiness of this person becomes much more important for you than your own.
And of course, true love has nothing to do with lust, or playing for power and finding out who is more important than anyone, which of us is dominant, as well as using another person as a means to amuse one's own vanity or replenish one's bank account.
And I am 100% sure that someday you will experience for someone the very true love that books and songs are dedicated to, and you will understand everything yourself.
And my advice to you is not to start a relationship if you are not head over heels in love. In my opinion, one-time sex without commitment or old good masturbation is much better than a relationship without love. In any case, such relationships do not lead to anything good and do not bring anything but unnecessary pain to all participants in such relationships.
So good luck dude, and I sincerely wish you someday experience that same true love, like in books and films. And I really hope that it will be mutual, long and happy for you.
Sorry, I'm a terrible graphomaniac. I think that no one will ever read this text to the end.
