Local Natives - When Am I Gonna Lose You

Follow Local Natives:

Lyrics:
Wait, when am I gonna lose you?
How will I let you slip through?
Careless or unkind?
Trace the curving on the coastline
Santa Lucia cliffside
Stay here for the night

I remember you said
Everything has its place
Now we'll lie in our bed
Wondering how to explain

You
When am I gonna lose
You
When am I gonna lose
You
When am I gonna lose
You
When am I gonna lose

Take another one if you need it
But do you already feel it?
I felt it from the start
A gray silhouette of you dancing
A shadow play that we're cast in
On the cabin walls

You were floating to me
In a slow motion fade
I could finally see
That you believed in fate

You
When am I gonna lose
You
When am I gonna lose
You
When am I gonna lose
You, you
When am I gonna lose

I remember you closing the shutters
And laying down by my side
And the light that was still slipping through
It was painting your body in stripes
I remember the trees summoned down
Like an archangel choir
And the ocean was all we could see
And I knew that I wanted you

I remember you closing the shutters
And laying down by my side
And the light that was still slipping through
It was painting your body in stripes
I remember the trees summoned down
Like an archangel choir
And the ocean was all we could see
And I knew that I wanted you

When am I gonna lose
When am I gonna lose
You
When am I gonna lose
You, you
When am I gonna lose

This is definitely a song you have to listen with a good audio system or headphones there are parts of the instrumentation that are very subtle and beautiful

[rosastrong]

When I found good songs like this it feels like gods give me little break for life.

[JohnnyNowhere]

Good music never goes out of style, nor does it ever go away. It just hides really well.

[MARLUXIA]

Why is it that I always find the best music after a breakup? It's like the universe knows you'll need them for the pain

[cherryvalance]

had a mini-breakdown in the shower when this came on autoplay . all i can say now is that it's a new staple for me and i won't go anywhere without it .

This song has a different meaning to me. It feels like a song written by me to myself. I know its about losing a lover, but it feels like I’m losing myself. God.

[bluemassgamer]

This speaks to anyone who is afraid of losing that love one or a perfect moment to the test of time.

when you haven't lost the tv remote in a few days

my first year of college I failed a research paper, subsequently failing the class. I sat in my car, the sun was at its awkward time when its all on your face and makes the world look golden. its pretty but its uncomfortable. I was feeling defeated and like an imposter. this song plays, and its the tipping point I needed to cry. I sat and cried and felt uncomfortable and bad, but I needed it. this song is nostalgic and bittersweet to me--yet its very dear to me as well and I hold it close to my heart.

[taylorconnor]

I hate how this makes me miss my ex. Like she isn't even worth it but this song makes me miss everything. This youtube channel changes lives. Thank you so much for what you do David!

[wintersoren]

They just played this at the Walmart I work at. It had to be a request cause I refuse to believe the guy that runs that radio would even play this song willingly, let alone this genre of music.

Love this song had it my music playlist for a good year and a half.

[bruceageer]

I can't get enuf of this song. I love the hell out of it. Great Vocals.

[facelessdragon]

I finally found it!!! I've been looking for this song for months!!!

[fishfroggy]

Beautifully flawless song that cuts deep.

[DRMrThi]

This is the type of song I like to listen to when I am lying down on my carpet floor. Feels really good giving time to feel your sadness and heartache show up

[Wing]

This song has a very "classic" feel to it. I love it...it sounds very 70s

[jZito]

Oof, love it. I haven’t listened to them in a while. Awesome song. Dope harmonies.

[liuosity]

Thank you Life is Strange for introducing me to amazing music <3

[Jozombies]

Amazing, found this band through life is strange a year ago and they continue to defy expectations. Good to know not all new music is bad!

[lovvv]

Ugh this song makes me want to shout and dance the lyrics out
