Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Candlelight
Insence burn like
We been at it 4 awhile
Everything we do
Feels so right
Keep it right here
Tryin 2 find my way
(Tryin 2 find my way)
In a place I've never been
(Place I've never been)
I messed up 4 sure

I'm so lost
In u
I'm so lost
In u
I'm surrounded
By your love
I give up
I'm so lost
In u

Your touching me
The way my body likes
We driving off road
Buckling me up
So tight
I got no where
2 go
Trying 2 find my way
(Trying 2 find my way)
In a place I've never been
(Place I've never been)
I messed up
4 sure

I'm so lost
In u
I'm so lost
In u
I'm surrounded
By your love
I give up
I'm so lost
In u

Now
All these trees
They all look the same
And I'm
Deep in these woods
Screaming your name
I
Just wanna be
Lost everyday
And I don't need
Directions
Just let me stay
Lost

Overall Meaning

In "Lost In You," Tank is describing a passionate moment with his partner, where they are lost in each other’s love. He sets the mood by creating a warm atmosphere of candlelight and burning incense to highlight the intimacy of the moment. Through their touch, they explore each other's body, embarking on a journey of pleasure where they let go of all their worries and just enjoy each other’s company. Tank admits that he is willing to give up control, get lost and submit himself completely to his partner’s love. He sings, "I messed up for sure", acknowledging that he is in unfamiliar terrain but is willing to let go and follow his partner's lead.


Throughout the song, Tank is so consumed by his partner’s love that he becomes lost in it. He feels like he is surrounded by her love, and no matter how much he tries to find his way back to reality, he can't. Tank wants to remain lost in her love, "deep in (the) woods, screaming" her name. He wants to feel lost every day, which for him means he doesn't need a compass, but just a partner whose love he can surrender to.


Overall, "Lost In You" is about embracing and immersing oneself in love, losing oneself to the pleasure of it all, and being unafraid to submit oneself to another person's love.
