If You See Her
Lany Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just look at us
You'd never bet against our love
Got that kind of thing that lasts
Table for two
She said "for life" so I'm confused
How'd she turn it off so fast

Don't know what she left me for
She won't talk to me anymore

So if you see her
Tell her I'd do anything, I need her
I know I'm not perfect but we were
She says she doesn't love me, don't believe her
If you see her

Maybe today
My phone will ring, I'll see her name
Trying not to hold my breath
It's all a blur
But I remember holding her last
Time that I was in her bed

Woke up with her head on my chest
This doesn't make any sense

So if you see her
Tell her I'd do anything, I need her
I know I'm not perfect but we were
She says she doesn't love me, don't believe her
If you see her

Does she remember
The night before goodbye she said forever
And made me swear I'd never leave her
She says she doesn't love me, don't believe her
If you see her

Yeah

So if you see her
Tell her I'd do anything, I need her
I know I'm not perfect but we were
She says she doesn't love me, don't believe her
If you see her

Does she remember
The night before goodbye she said forever
And made me swear I'd never leave her
She says she doesn't love me, don't believe her
If you see her

If you see her
Tell her that she's fucked it, I can't read her
We both know she's not perfect either




But if she says she loves me, let me see her
Let me see her

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lany’s song “If You See Her” tell the heartbreaking tale of a man trying to understand why his relationship abruptly ended. The opening lines, “Just look at us, you’d never bet against our love, got that kind of thing that lasts,” set the stage for what appears to be a happy, long-lasting relationship, only to be shattered by the woman’s sudden departure. The man is left to wonder what went wrong, as he desperately tries to communicate with his ex-girlfriend, who has seemingly cut off all contact. He reflects on intimate moments spent together, and can’t grasp how someone who promised to love him for life could turn their feelings off so quickly.


The chorus of the song is a plea to anyone who may come across his ex-girlfriend to pass along a message: “tell her I'd do anything, I need her. I know I'm not perfect but we were. She says she doesn't love me, don't believe her. If you see her.”


The lyrics suggest that the relationship ended abruptly and without explanation, leaving the singer feeling confused and desperate. He remembers the last time they were together, and how it felt so right at the time. He is unable to comprehend what went wrong and why his ex-girlfriend won’t talk to him anymore.


Overall, “If You See Her” is a powerful ballad that captures the heartbreak and confusion that can come with the sudden end of a relationship. The song’s lyrics are relatable to anyone who has been through a breakup, and its emotional impact is heightened by Lany’s electrifying vocals.

I DIE EVERY TIME LANY DROPS A NEW SONG, WOW. WE'VE BEEN BLESSED. THIS ALBUM IS GOING TO BE SOOOOO GOOD.

@aideegonzales5239

fifth mix SAMEDT!!!! 💖

@AmosdollMusic

Very relaxing chorus section

@dignasaur9486

Can we talk about how amazing Nicola is? Like she's been so supportive, even did some of the song's cover when the entire album seems to be about Paul's relationship w/ Dua? Damn I can't even imagine I love her for loving Paul & being on his side. I am so happy for the both of them ❤

@juanc.aguilar2029

dignasaur '94 this is perfect 💚

@sharadelima8657

Exactly so done with those dragging duas name every damn time

@chouhanaryan

I have a feeling the album might have a couple of songs about Nicola as well. It'd be fantastic if it did - an all round trip - from heartbreak to reconciliation to finding love again.

@dignasaur9486

@@chouhanaryan your MIND! OMG like from breaking up, healing, and finding love & happiness again! I'll die 😭

@lykaaaaavillegas
