I really love how she doesn't repeat "I'm falling behind" at the end but instead uses "Everybody’s falling in love" and then "but me"... LOVE YOU LAUFEY. You make a troubled heart song in such good vibes.
Yes - it’s another brilliant bit of songwriting… thanks Laufey! If anyone wants to learn to play it - I’ve made a real clear tutorial - hope you like! th-cam.com/video/vZQU8Sj-QzY/w-d-xo.html
and how the song sounds like it's ending-- except. go to bed thinking it's over, that's it, that's the end of the day and nothing to show for it once again. fall asleep repeatedly murmuring "everybody's falling in love, everybody's falling in love, everybody's falling in love..." it feels like everything is over before it started. then before you know it-- feel the morning sunlight filtering through the blinds. it's a brand new day and anything could happen. and you whisper to yourself: "one, two, three--"
It's BAWLING! Balling is when you dribble a basketball (i think) . I can't get the image of a cat dribbling its eyeball to the beat of 9mm out of my mind
Literally me. The only time I ever felt like I truly had a crush on someone, days later my best friend said he liked her and got her number, so I had to get rid of my first ever true feelings for someone. This song is the most true thing for me ever.
Great, but Bossa Nova (Brazilian rhythm) is in 2/4 - the correct way would be for it to count: 1, 2... 1, ... Just a perfectionism on my part. But the music is perfect and so is the singer!
The “1, 2, 3” ending from 2:20 is so heartwarming! I am in love with it. Such a creative way to end a song 🎶 The song is named Falling Behind, but for those who listen to the song, you are never behind of seeking love in your life!
I still don't know why, but whenever I hear the countdown I immediately tear up. There's something so nostalgic and bittersweet about it. Is there a meaning behind the countdown so I can ACUALLY have a reason to cry to the outro?
@@TheMaestro1275 I interpret the outro as love at first sight, or her finally falling. The song ends quietly and slow as she says "Everybody's falling in love, but me" . Maybe the countdown is signaling when she finally sees someone she likes or the exact moment she's fallen in love with somebody she knows. When she does finally fall in love, the instrumental picks back up again in full swing. It makes sense with the next songs in the album too :)
com certeza!! se você gosta de músicas desse tipo, você deveria ouvir um pouco de uma artista chamada "Liana Flores", ela é britânica e usa muito da cultura brasileira nas músicas
Laufey, you are regenerating the bossa nova era, and I'm here for it! All of your music is so incredibly beautiful, but your latest songs are seriously displaying all of your qualities as not only a talented and unique vocalist, but also as a creative composer and lyricist. You do not know how much the world is in need of artists like you, and I'm so lucky to have the opportunity to bask in the warmth of your heartfelt music at your concert at the Troubadour, LA. I can't wait to see you become the mainstream jazz artist whose music gets played on the radio, because you are the artist the world's been waiting for!!
@@GuyHeadbanger Thank you! I can't even begin to explain how much Laufey's music has given me the hope that "good" music is still out there; and obviously, even though what's considered "good" is subjective, I really value the artistry of artists like her who actually take the time to actually play the music instead of rely on other people's samples and beats, and the raw sound of a carefully mastered recording of the instrumentals is just beautiful. I'm literally in love with this woman's talent, dedication, and soul expressed through her entire discography, and I'm just so excited to see where she goes from here
@@NakOut Last week - as a native German - I traveled by train in Germany. The train was rather full and loud, so I decided to hear some music on my cell phone, as it would not bother anyone. No headphones. So I listened to "The Girl from Ipanema" Astrud Gilberto, João Gilberto and Stan Getz, good old version. Right after a Laufey compilation started playing and around me people got silent, trying to get an idea, what I was listening to. Students, elderly ladies, it was amazing! Sure, I wish her as much success as possible, but on the other hand I am hoping that commercial success does not turn Laufey into one of those zombies we get to hear on radio these days. Maybe there are some old fashioned jazz producers around helping her out without corrupting her or pushing her.
Moved out to a new city June is dawning down on me And all that I can find A sickly romance in the air Lovers stroll without a care in sight Ooh, this can't be right 'Cause the sun's engaged to the sky And my best friend's found a new guy I'm only getting older I've never had a shoulder to cry on Someone to call mine Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind Touched the ocean, fell right in Stepped outside and burned my skin My life won't go my way Bossa nova in my room Hope that I'll find someone too to love Because The sun's engaged to the sky And my best friend's found a new guy I'm only getting older I've never had a shoulder to cry on Someone to call mine Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind Everybody's falling in love Everybody's falling in love, oh Everybody's falling in love but me (One, two, three)

As a senior in Highschool, this is so real. I feel like I haven't a clue what to do next. At the same time, I feel like I'm always behind everyone my age. I'm not in a relationship of any kind, while everyone else my age is dating or "likes" someone. I'm not interested in anyone.
High school is one of the worst times to get a relationship; everyone is young and stupid. There will be plenty more chances - most statistically happen around age 30.
As a 26 yo woman who's never had a boyfriend, never kissed, cuddled or even held hands with a man, I relate so heavily to this song. And it sucks... Wonder when or even if it's ever going to happen for me.
Ngl, it took me a couple minutes for this to click. Lmfao, I get it now. I mean jokingly, yes, in reality I feel learning to disconnect and live more present and learn how to be able to focus on what you have and try to bask in that rather than the pain and what we don’t have or feel we lack is key. In my experience at least. I struggle with sever depression sometimes and have lost many friends due to not being able to preform up to ideals even when I’m totally good most of the time and go above and beyond. It sucks but the reality is like… we’re better off knowing it eventually than having wasted more time on them. I’d rather stay alone and be lonely even than to keep putting what little energy I have to spare sometimes into others who don’t appreciate me or life outside of social media and stuff yn? So, sorry to get serious but I felt it was something I should have added on for anyone needing to hear. You’re worth fighting for in that people who really care about you and your well being won’t want you having to be out of touch with yourself or reality just to get on, they would want to see you get in touch with yourself and thriving EVEN if that means talking less often/consistently, even if that means you delete socials, they’ll want you to put your phone down for days and pick up books and make tea and bask in your own life and space you slowly make your own. That’s true and healthy friendship, they want you to be the best you and will root for you every step of the way whether in spirit for a bit while apart or just a lil text saying so to check in. Yn? Healthy distance for that is important and others should understand and so many don’t and I just felt I needed to vent about that. I hope you all start to build a bomb ass relationship with yourself and the space you live in. Just, love on yourself, you deserve it!!!! 🫶🏻😌🥰💖don’t let anyone tell you otherwise or make you feel guilty or uncomfortable about it either loves!
I'm aromantic and often feel very bad about that (I shouldn't, I know, but accepting yourself is tough in a society obsessed with 'love') and this song really helps me feel more okay with myself. Thank you Laufey for making this song :)
Its crazy how despite I never been in a relationship or been somewhat intimate with someone I kinda want to feel inlove but at the same time...I genuinely enjoy being single. This song makes me feel some type of way. 😭
Her voice gave me comfort during my lowest moment. Every night, I play her songs and it soothes my mind. Her humming really strikes my heart and her voice is on constant replay everytime i feel down. I hope she grows in popularity that she deserves😊
"Falling Behind" really reminds me of the three year period between my last and current relationship, because after having been cheated on and dumped, I felt like "everybody's falling in love, and I'm falling behind." Honestly, it's one of the hardest feelings to deal with, because having already experienced the beauty and excitement of love, the pain of being dumped and seeing other people's relationships begin or continue to succeed is just insanely tough to bear. I feel that both the pain of never having been in a relationship and having been in a failed relationship make it easy to relate to the lyrics "I'm falling behind," ... and honestly, it's hard to convince yourself otherwise, but I eventually began to realize that being single didn't have to mean that I was "falling behind." -- Taking the time to really relearn how to love myself really helped me to escape the idea that being single is equivalent to failure. Eventually, I found someone who helped me to relearn the wonders of love, and now I can sing this song with the understanding that even though seeing everyone around you falling in love is often disheartening as a single person, there is absolutely hope for all that yearn for love from a special someone. It took me FOREVER to feel like I was worthy of being love again, but I swear (and as corny as it may sound), good things come in time
I'VE NEVER BEEN SO COMMITED TO AN ARTIST BEFORE 😭😭😭😭 ever since I've discovered you through someone I just fell in love with your music and I listen to it 24/7 in any situation 🫶🫶🫶 your songs helped me go through everything and I will always look forward to your music
Laufey, I am going to start the new year with this song! I've always loved your music ever since your first song. Thank you for being apart of my 2023 year.
this is the first laufey song i’ve ever listened to, and aside from the nice melodies, i resonate with the lyrics… i’m 22 and i feel very conflicted……as in, i’ve never been in a relationship or even held hands before, and don’t want to until it’s time for me to get married (because it’s what my parents would want) and yet i see all of these couples walking around my college, and it makes me feel empty inside because i wanna experience that too someday…
Dear Laufey, I'm Kita Inoko and love your music. I've been singing for 12 years now and still haven't became an artist yet. You really inspire me to be a singer. You relate to me a lot even though I'm really young. I hope that one day I can go to one of your concerts. I haven't been able to but I know I will someday. Your amazing and I hope one day I can be like you, you inspire me so much and I will always be inspired.
I love both Minji's version and hers 😍😍 so glad I found this masterpiece tonight 🤗 almost winter here but as soon as I play this track, my room turned into blooming flower field of spring 🌸🌼💐
I absolutely adore this woman. She can sing a love song in a way that drops you to your knees convinced that she’s feeling the lyrics, but then, She gives us songs like this and “everything I know about love“.
laufey, i’ve been a fan since march 2021 and im so proud of you. all of your songs are so good, i am so proud of your progress, your recent fame because you deserve all of it, and i am most definitely proud to be called one of your fans, thank you for making such amazing music.
this song hits hard. i’ve only ever had one relationship in my life and it didn’t end on great terms. i’ve worked on being happy being single, but i remember how good it felt to be in a relationship and i can’t help feeling like i’m missing out on those experiences. thank you laufey for being so damn relatable
I’m aroace but I’ve been having a really hard time accepting myself cause I feel like I’m “behind” my peers in development even tho romance IS NOT a e requirement to growing up. This song makes me feel seen. Thank you for making it in all its bittersweetness💚
As an aroace gal myself, I understand you! It's so difficult explaining my orientation to other people without them either finding it funny, or telling me that I just haven't found the right one.
This hits different as an aroace. Sometimes I wish I had the feelings my friends do to boys, I wish I didn’t feel like an alien, being confused about how love feels, why people feel love. I wish I had the same view of crushes as my friends, because they act like it’s the biggest deal in the world, but I see it as just liking one person more than others. But, I guess everybody’s falling in love, and I’m falling behind…
I’m glad you can get something out of this song but this is a song for people who want a relationship badly but just can’t seem to get anyone to like them back
Let me say this; Laufey is indeed the modern-day incarnation of goddess Harmonia - the muse of heavenly music and melodies, harmony, accordance, and peace! Her impossibly divine beauty, almost ethereal and magical musical skills, and majestic aura and personality are all perfect!
Laufey just wanna thank you for the music you gave us. It's been over 10 months since I discovered your music and you , your music has helped me a lot and they're the source of my happiness 💕 you and NewJeans are my most favourite artists. I am happy that you're getting the recognition that you deserve ❤ Please never stop making Music Laufey
I feel like Laufey's music resonates with a lot of people, like me, I love her voice and music, its beyond heart touching to listen to, I often listen to her whenever I'm struggling, it feels like a coping therapy. I'm glad laufey exists, it makes me happier in life thanks you.
Laufey's voice is just so soothing to listen to and combined with that lovely jazz,it's a literal bread and butter combo! Her music is a blessing to this world
THE LAST PART SHOT ME IN THE HEART the “one… two… three…” just really was so smooth. your voice is amazing and i’ve been waiting so long for this song to come out. thank you for the lovely bossa nova laufey ❤
Lauryl you make my soul seen of all things that feels in how I feel. "Everybody is falling in love but me." You make it so natural and sweet. Thank you.
I had a really bad week, full of bad surprises, finally today all ended well and the release of this new song was the final piece to turn this day into a great day, thankyou so much for your music, your voice always warms my soul and let me go on day by day.
Her songs are goldie to me, I've shared these songs with my friends and family but I'm the only one who feel the songs. I'm a lil sad but also I'm glad, these feelings are the calmness after a storm - been in denial, been in self-hatred, been through the pain of realizing the difference, been desperated and all - I'm glad that my beloveds were not been through all that, I prefer feeling all this myself...
I love how this sounds, it sounds so peaceful, like listen to this on a picnic or when your reading. it's like the song where u are having a "Happy days only"
Laufey you are the most underrated artist I know. I can’t wait until more people realize your incredible talent and you become the superstar you should be
That would take with the big record labels coming around to Julie Andrews vocal styles again or independent/indie record companies coming alongside up-and-coming artists like Laufey who are reviving this genre of music for us millennials/GenZ peeps 🤞
~Lyrics~ Moved out to a new city June is dawning down on me and all that I can find a sickly romance in the air lovers stroll without a care in sight ~oh~ this can't be right cause the suns engaged to the sky and my best friends found a new guy I'm only getting older I've never had a shoulder to cry on someone to call mine everybodys falling love and I'm falling behind Touch the ocean fell right in stepped outside and burned my skin my life won't go my way bosa nova in my room hope that i'll find someone to to love because the Suns engaged to the sky and my best friends found a new guy I'm only getting older I've never had a shoulder to cry on someone to call mine everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind everybody's falling in love everybody's falling in love oh~oh~oh everybody's falling in love but me
She is amazing. What a voice. What dream to hear her voice on the net. I have sent her links to anyone that I know ... spread her music. We need more of this style of music in the 20's
i've only had a single crush in my whole life. all of my friends, almost every single person i know, INCLUDING my crush, had dated at least two people by the time i met them. and they'd all had a crush on way more. it's just hard for me to start liking someone, and it's hard for me to stop. so i'm... quite literally behind. in every aspect. i've always been so insecure about this fact. this makes me feel better, though. thank you, laufey.
i cant explain with words how much i love this song and laufey especially , its been one year since this came out but this song has a special place in my heart ...AND THE OUTRO !!!!!!
I really love how she doesn't repeat "I'm falling behind" at the end but instead uses "Everybody’s falling in love" and then "but me"... LOVE YOU LAUFEY. You make a troubled heart song in such good vibes.
Yes!!! It’s so simple and so brilliant.
Yes - it’s another brilliant bit of songwriting… thanks Laufey! If anyone wants to learn to play it - I’ve made a real clear tutorial - hope you like! th-cam.com/video/vZQU8Sj-QzY/w-d-xo.html

and how the song sounds like it's ending-- except.
go to bed thinking it's over, that's it, that's the end of the day and nothing to show for it once again. fall asleep repeatedly murmuring "everybody's falling in love, everybody's falling in love, everybody's falling in love..." it feels like everything is over before it started.
then before you know it-- feel the morning sunlight filtering through the blinds. it's a brand new day and anything could happen.
and you whisper to yourself: "one, two, three--"
Feels very Chet Baker-ish
listening to Laufey really helps you romanticize the ordinary, ugh.

Moved out to a new city
June is dawning down on me
And all that I can find
A sickly romance in the air
Lovers stroll without a care in sight
Ooh, this can't be right
'Cause the sun's engaged to the sky
And my best friend's found a new guy
I'm only getting older
I've never had a shoulder to cry on
Someone to call mine
Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind
Touched the ocean, fell right in
Stepped outside and burned my skin
My life won't go my way
Bossa nova in my room
Hope that I'll find someone too to love
Because
The sun's engaged to the sky
And my best friend's found a new guy
I'm only getting older
I've never had a shoulder to cry on
Someone to call mine
Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind
Everybody's falling in love
Everybody's falling in love, oh
Everybody's falling in love but me

Moved out to a new city
June is dawning down on me
And all that I can find is
A sickly romance in the air
Lovers stroll without a care inside
Oh, this can't be right

I'm only getting older
I never had a shoulder to cry on
Someone to call my
Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind
Touched the ocean, fell right in

Her voice gave me comfort during my lowest moment. Every night, I play her songs and it soothes my mind. Her humming really strikes my heart and her voice is on constant replay everytime i feel down. I hope she grows in popularity that she deserves😊
"Falling Behind" really reminds me of the three year period between my last and current relationship, because after having been cheated on and dumped, I felt like "everybody's falling in love, and I'm falling behind." Honestly, it's one of the hardest feelings to deal with, because having already experienced the beauty and excitement of love, the pain of being dumped and seeing other people's relationships begin or continue to succeed is just insanely tough to bear.
I feel that both the pain of never having been in a relationship and having been in a failed relationship make it easy to relate to the lyrics "I'm falling behind," ... and honestly, it's hard to convince yourself otherwise, but I eventually began to realize that being single didn't have to mean that I was "falling behind." -- Taking the time to really relearn how to love myself really helped me to escape the idea that being single is equivalent to failure. Eventually, I found someone who helped me to relearn the wonders of love, and now I can sing this song with the understanding that even though seeing everyone around you falling in love is often disheartening as a single person, there is absolutely hope for all that yearn for love from a special someone.
It took me FOREVER to feel like I was worthy of being love again, but I swear (and as corny as it may sound), good things come in time
this was really touching for me
Hey Kaila you're so beautiful

I'VE NEVER BEEN SO COMMITED TO AN ARTIST BEFORE 😭😭😭😭 ever since I've discovered you through someone I just fell in love with your music and I listen to it 24/7 in any situation 🫶🫶🫶 your songs helped me go through everything and I will always look forward to your music
LITERALLY SAME my playlist is full with laufey's songs rn 😭💕
Listen to grentperez too, almost not a single bad song ever released by him
Laufey's voice makes me feel the same way the warmth of rays from a sunrise does.
Your music is the type I would listen to laying out at night glaring at the moon & the stars and reminiscing on the past or wishing on the future :))
Ah, yes. This was what I was looking for. I didn’t know what to imagine while listening to this song, but this is perfect. 👍
just my mind

Laufey, I am going to start the new year with this song! I've always loved your music ever since your first song. Thank you for being apart of my 2023 year.

i love the bossa nova sounds in this song, it makes it the perfect summer song before school starts :]
How's school going, bro?
@@thebeardedjohnschool’s great! thanks for asking 💪

this is the first laufey song i’ve ever listened to, and aside from the nice melodies, i resonate with the lyrics… i’m 22 and i feel very conflicted……as in, i’ve never been in a relationship or even held hands before, and don’t want to until it’s time for me to get married (because it’s what my parents would want) and yet i see all of these couples walking around my college, and it makes me feel empty inside because i wanna experience that too someday…
Dear Laufey, I'm Kita Inoko and love your music. I've been singing for 12 years now and still haven't became an artist yet. You really inspire me to be a singer. You relate to me a lot even though I'm really young. I hope that one day I can go to one of your concerts. I haven't been able to but I know I will someday. Your amazing and I hope one day I can be like you, you inspire me so much and I will always be inspired.
Thank you Laufey for such a great song. Love you, both Minji and Laufeyy
Yuppp
I love both Minji's version and hers 😍😍 so glad I found this masterpiece tonight 🤗 almost winter here but as soon as I play this track, my room turned into blooming flower field of spring 🌸🌼💐
This is the type of song that would take me back to the feeling of summer regardless of the season☀🏖
Another beautiful release from our Magnolia!

I absolutely adore this woman. She can sing a love song in a way that drops you to your knees convinced that she’s feeling the lyrics, but then, She gives us songs like this and “everything I know about love“.

"Everybody's falling in love and i am falling behind"
"everybodys already falling in love, and im falling behind" to relatable im lowkey scared LOVE YOU LAUFEY
Minji brought me to this masterpiece 🫧

laufey, i’ve been a fan since march 2021 and im so proud of you. all of your songs are so good, i am so proud of your progress, your recent fame because you deserve all of it, and i am most definitely proud to be called one of your fans, thank you for making such amazing music.
glaze
this song hits hard. i’ve only ever had one relationship in my life and it didn’t end on great terms. i’ve worked on being happy being single, but i remember how good it felt to be in a relationship and i can’t help feeling like i’m missing out on those experiences. thank you laufey for being so damn relatable
glaze
I could play this at night and fall asleep to how smooth her voice is. I can't even write an entire essay on how amazing her voice is.

Layfeys songs are so relatable and I love them for that. Her voice is so soothing, calms me down 100% of the time

I'm here because of NewJeans Minji cover. This is such a good song! ♥

I’m aroace but I’ve been having a really hard time accepting myself cause I feel like I’m “behind” my peers in development even tho romance IS NOT a e requirement to growing up. This song makes me feel seen. Thank you for making it in all its bittersweetness💚
Virtual hugs. 💛
As an aroace gal myself, I understand you! It's so difficult explaining my orientation to other people without them either finding it funny, or telling me that I just haven't found the right one.
Same except what makes me feel like im falling behind isn't the lack of attraction but the repulsion part
glaze
This hits different as an aroace. Sometimes I wish I had the feelings my friends do to boys, I wish I didn’t feel like an alien, being confused about how love feels, why people feel love. I wish I had the same view of crushes as my friends, because they act like it’s the biggest deal in the world, but I see it as just liking one person more than others. But, I guess everybody’s falling in love, and I’m falling behind…
I’m glad you can get something out of this song but this is a song for people who want a relationship badly but just can’t seem to get anyone to like them back
Same, I’ve only had one relationship, I loved it and I don’t get crushes or anything like that so that’s how I realized I’m Demi squared

I DID THE LAUFEY COUNTDOWN FOR NEW YEARS
Let me say this; Laufey is indeed the modern-day incarnation of goddess Harmonia - the muse of heavenly music and melodies, harmony, accordance, and peace! Her impossibly divine beauty, almost ethereal and magical musical skills, and majestic aura and personality are all perfect!
Here for new years transition 😋
Me too!!!
Laufey just wanna thank you for the music you gave us. It's been over 10 months since I discovered your music and you , your music has helped me a lot and they're the source of my happiness 💕 you and NewJeans are my most favourite artists. I am happy that you're getting the recognition that you deserve ❤
Please never stop making Music Laufey
Minji and Laufey I love you both🔥
Thank you for making my day 🍂🍂🤍

It's such a great song
I feel like Laufey's music resonates with a lot of people, like me, I love her voice and music, its beyond heart touching to listen to, I often listen to her whenever I'm struggling, it feels like a coping therapy. I'm glad laufey exists, it makes me happier in life thanks you.
Laufey's voice is just so soothing to listen to and combined with that lovely jazz,it's a literal bread and butter combo!
Her music is a blessing to this world

THE LAST PART SHOT ME IN THE HEART the “one… two… three…” just really was so smooth. your voice is amazing and i’ve been waiting so long for this song to come out. thank you for the lovely bossa nova laufey ❤
Minji really sounds like you, i love both original and minji’s cover ☺️
Lauryl you make my soul seen of all things that feels in how I feel. "Everybody is falling in love but me." You make it so natural and sweet. Thank you.
I had a really bad week, full of bad surprises, finally today all ended well and the release of this new song was the final piece to turn this day into a great day, thankyou so much for your music, your voice always warms my soul and let me go on day by day.
minji covering this song js just omg. laufey collab with newjeans PLEASE
Dear bunnies, please refrain from saying Minji here. We have to show more respect Laufey, here is her official channel and it's her song❤
We the bunnies are here appreciating both minji and this beautiful song tho🌚💓
I don't see any problem in commenting on why we're here, Laufey would definitely like to see her get a little more recognition for it
Her songs are goldie to me, I've shared these songs with my friends and family but I'm the only one who feel the songs. I'm a lil sad but also I'm glad, these feelings are the calmness after a storm - been in denial, been in self-hatred, been through the pain of realizing the difference, been desperated and all - I'm glad that my beloveds were not been through all that, I prefer feeling all this myself...
I love how this sounds, it sounds so peaceful, like listen to this on a picnic or when your reading. it's like the song where u are having a "Happy days only"
I absolutely savored the guitar part on this track, it’s simple but great; it’s minimalistic. I’m jealous of your writing skills Laufey lol.
glaze
@ hope you have a good day, I mean it
I wish I could describe how happy I am that bossa nova music is becoming a kind of mainstream. Beautiful
Laufey you are the most underrated artist I know. I can’t wait until more people realize your incredible talent and you become the superstar you should be
That would take with the big record labels coming around to Julie Andrews vocal styles again or independent/indie record companies coming alongside up-and-coming artists like Laufey who are reviving this genre of music for us millennials/GenZ peeps 🤞
Guess what my guy, she's slowly reaching the big leagues now
she's a big artist now!! she's going big man :]
who knew 2 words could change the entire feel of the song.. this is amazing work!

Bro she has so much talent to deepen her voice she really knows astounding music❤️

Yeah.
~Lyrics~
Moved out to a new city
June is dawning down on me and all that I can find a sickly romance in the air
lovers stroll without a care in sight ~oh~ this can't be right cause the suns engaged to the sky
and my best friends found a new guy
I'm only getting older I've never had a shoulder to cry on someone to call mine everybodys falling love and I'm falling behind
Touch the ocean fell right in stepped outside and burned my skin
my life won't go my way
bosa nova in my room
hope that i'll find someone to to love because the Suns engaged to the sky
and my best friends found a new guy
I'm only getting older I've never had a shoulder to cry on someone to call mine everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind
everybody's falling in love everybody's falling in love oh~oh~oh
everybody's falling in love but me
She is amazing. What a voice. What dream to hear her voice on the net. I have sent her links to anyone that I know ... spread her music. We need more of this style of music in the 20's
This speaks to my soul
Minji brought me here such a beautiful song ❤
I just love how mellow this song is!! I can’t stop listening.
Laufey falling in love, and I'm falling behind

“I’ve never had a shoulder to cry on” such a deep lyric. This whole song is so relatable. I love how the raw lyrics contrasts with the upbeat tempo.

i've only had a single crush in my whole life.
all of my friends, almost every single person i know, INCLUDING my crush, had dated at least two people by the time i met them. and they'd all had a crush on way more. it's just hard for me to start liking someone, and it's hard for me to stop. so i'm... quite literally behind. in every aspect.
i've always been so insecure about this fact. this makes me feel better, though. thank you, laufey.
i cant explain with words how much i love this song and laufey especially , its been one year since this came out but this song has a special place in my heart ...AND THE OUTRO !!!!!!
HER VOICE MAKES ME CRYY😭🤚 SHE SOUNDS SO ANGELIC 😻
this is one of my favorites, it literally describes everything happening rn 😭 laufey is so relatable i love her sm ❤❤
MINJI bring me here Thanks Minji ❤🥺
Every time I listen to something new from Laufey, it will always become my favorite. The lyric, the music , the vibe, everything is just wonderful.
lauvers, don't forget to put "falling behind" today at 23:59:57 at minute 2:25 because laufey will do a countdown to the new year
I'm here because of Minji's cover!!! Thank you very much for introducing me to this great song.

Someone sang this at the middle school talent show last year. Now I have a new relatable song with chill beach vibes!
