Conan Gray - Footnote (Official Lyric Video)

Connect with Conan:

Lyric Video By: The Valdez

Lyrics:
You said at the party
That I was too drunk
I told you I liked you
You said sober up
But why would I lie?
It’s so clear I’m in love
With you.

A tense conversation
You like someone else
I say “If I waited, could that maybe help?”
You told me that
Patience won't change
How you felt...for me.

So I’ll stop being pretentious
And loathing our friendship
You taught me a lesson: that love isn't precious.
It’s not like the novels
No pride and prejudice at all.

So I’ll just take a footnote in your life
And you could take my body
Every line I would write for you
But a footnote will do
A footnote will do...

We ate at a restaurant
The host said we’re cute
They think we’re a couple
They bought us some booze
We share the moscato and laugh cause it's true...to me.

Oh, and I’d be embarrassed
If I weren't so pleased
That everyone else
Sees what you never see We’re perfect together
But i'll never be...the one.

So I’ll stop being pretentious
And loathing our friendship
You taught me a lesson: that feelings are reckless It’s just like the novels
Side characters end up alone.

So I’ll just take a footnote in your life
And you could take my body
Every line I would write for you
But a footnote will do
A footnote will do...

Please don’t forget me Forget me
Please don’t forget me Forget me
Please don’t forget me Forget me
Please don’t forget me (forget)
A footnote will do (forget) A footnote will do (forget)
A footnote will do

"You taught me a lesson: that love isn't precious.
It’s not like the novels
No pride and prejudice at all."
This song is so golden and precious, Conan you're a lyrical genius.!!

[davegreenbrown]

i love how disaster is at the top meaning like it’s actually a footnote 😭😭😭

[Hala-ekqy]

Isn’t it weird that Conan always write sad relatable songs that makes everyone cry and adore him even more🫶🏻

[tishamaryam]

This is one of the most beautiful songs in existence. Conan is He's literally just the definition of that word. Whatever he does, it just turns beautiful. Love ya conan forever- Your fans <3

[lalisbeingherself]

My mom gave me the life, but conan's music makes me want continue living.

[pattyratick]

us waiting months for this album and him teasing us with snippets in interviews about the album was totally worth it ...Conan is a songwriting machine who does not disappoint like what how does he do this releasing bop after bop

[_myrtle.leaf_]

„and i'd be embrassed if i weren't so pleased,
That everyone else sees what you never see.
We're perfect together, but I'll never be.. the one..“ that line hits hard.

[alicenicodiangelo]

this song is realizing that while they were the main character in your life, you were the background character in theirs

[AS-dpgr]

“I made you my temple, my mural, my sky
Now I'm begging for footnotes in the story of your life
Drawing hearts in the byline
Always taking up too much space or time”
I instantly thought of this verse from tolerate It by Taylor Swift

[cloverherb]

"It's just like the novels, side characters end up alone." That hits me so painfully. I'm already so old and have been in love multiple times but I never get my feelings reciprocated. I've been feeling like the comic relief side character whose single status is the main joke amongst friends who are their own protagonists.

[karlaevelin]

I'm so happy, I just needed this album at this stage of my life, love u so much Conan ♥️✨😭

[mjk]

I felt these lyrics on another level, being in love with some one for years but they have eyes for someone else, so you feel like you have to take a step back for them to be happy, even if that means it stays unrequited love

[selenassimp]

This is by far one of the most underrated songs of Conan

[Gio-uttl]

I can't describe it but the part 'so I'll stop being pretentious and loathing our friendship you taught me a lesson that love isn't precious' just hits so hard

It's beautifully written and executed
Conan gray is incredible

[-bestblink-]

There's just something about this artist that is so nice, it's like you tell him how you feel and he just writes songs and they are way too damn relatable that you feel it from the bottom of your soul and you could cry your heart out

[jennacline]

I will stay up tonight listening to the entire album despite having work early tomorrow. Forever so immensely proud of you Cone

[sturningthepot]

I told my crush recently that I had a crush on them, they rejected me so now this song is getting played 24/7. I really do wished they liked me back but that’s the way the world works now

[chzster]

as someone who is in love with my best friend who is currently in a relationship, I love this. conan cannot make a bad song.

[MP-]

The only way to describe an emotion for how Conan’s songs make me feel is beautiful pain. Most of the topics in this album is about giving 100% of yourself to someone while only receiving 5% of them 🥺

[tianam]

It’s the “Please don’t forget me. Forget me.” that bring me to tears 😭
