She'd take the world off my shoulders If it was ever hard to move She'd turn the rain to a rainbow When I was living in the blue Why then, if she is so perfect Do I still wish that it was you? Perfect don't mean that it's working So what can I do? (do ooh) When you're out of sight In my mind 'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes And that's where I find a glimpse of us And I try to fall for her touch But I'm thinking of the way it was Said I'm fine and said I moved on I'm only here passing time in her arms Hoping I'll find A glimpse of us Tell me he savors your glory Does he laugh the way I did? Is this a part of your story? One that I had never lived Maybe one day you'll feel lonely And in his eyes, you'll get a glimpse Maybe you'll start slipping slowly And find me again (again) When you're out of sight In my mind 'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes And that's where I find a glimpse of us And I try to fall for her touch But I'm thinking of the way it was Said I'm fine and said I moved on I'm only here passing time in her arms Hoping I'll find A glimpse of us Ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh 'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes And that's where I find a glimpse of us And I try to fall for her touch But I'm thinking of the way it was Said I'm fine and said I moved on I'm only here passing time in her arms Hoping I'll find A glimpse of us
the story of the song glimpse of Us is a dark love song where Joji compares his current relationship to the previous one and the love he felt for his ex; Joji is not able to forget the love and the feeling he had in his last relationship so he tries to relive those feelings (that “Glimpse of us”) with her current partner. Without success, unfortunately. Joji is perfectly aware that the girl he’s with right now is a great person. In the first lines of the song he refers to her current partner, saying that she’s perfect, she’s able to turn rain into a rainbow. Nevertheless, the author wonders why he still thinks about his ex, the girl with whom he’s talking right now. "She’d Take The World Off My Shoulders If It Was Ever Hard To Move She’d Turn The Rain To A Rainbow When I Was Living In The Blue Why Then, If She’s So Perfect Do I Still Wish That It Was You? Perfect Don’t Mean That It’s Working So What Can I Do?" In a sort of internal confession to his previous love, he asks her how that is possible. She’s with a perfect girl right now, but inexplicably he doesn’t feel it works right. The chorus therefore represents a tough confession: when she looks in the eyes of the woman he’s with right now, he’s actually looking for a glimpse of what he experienced with his previous partner. From here the title of the song, “Glimpse of Us“, and the true meaning of Joji lyrics. ‘Cause Sometimes I Look In Her Eyes And That’s Where I Find A Glimpse Of Us And I Try To Fall For Her Touch But I’m Thinking Of The Way It Was Said, “I’m Fine” And Said, “I Moved On” I’m Only Here Passing Time In Her Arms Hoping I’ll Find A Glimpse Of Us" In the second verse of the song, the author wonders if his previous girl feels the same with the man she’s currently with. He asks her if she feels the same as when she was with him. And he wonders if one day she will feel the same melancholy he feels right now. If that happens, they will virtually meet again in the territory of their shared sadness.
can u sing the same song but in the pov of joji's current gf? the one who is just a filler for his ex, you can change the lyrics a bit but the melody stays the same- i think it will be insanely good! 🤍
The words mean so much with the way you sang this. I really like how you got into the character of the song's persona and really expressed the heartache and pain experienced by the persona of this song. You did a great job in making us feel and experience all that. Terrific cover song, Alexis!
sorry about the reuploads !! my video quality was getting messed up the first few times :( i hope you guys enjoy this cover!!
Doesn't matter...if we can hear your voice that's enough 🎧🎧
Thanks for everthing
How old are you 😊♥️
Don’t worry about it, u still stunning✨
what camera do you use?
She'd take the world off my shoulders
If it was ever hard to move
She'd turn the rain to a rainbow
When I was living in the blue
Why then, if she is so perfect
Do I still wish that it was you?
Perfect don't mean that it's working
So what can I do? (do ooh)
When you're out of sight
In my mind
'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes
And that's where I find a glimpse of us
And I try to fall for her touch
But I'm thinking of the way it was
Said I'm fine and said I moved on
I'm only here passing time in her arms
Hoping I'll find
A glimpse of us
Tell me he savors your glory
Does he laugh the way I did?
Is this a part of your story?
One that I had never lived
Maybe one day you'll feel lonely
And in his eyes, you'll get a glimpse
Maybe you'll start slipping slowly
And find me again (again)
When you're out of sight
In my mind
'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes
And that's where I find a glimpse of us
And I try to fall for her touch
But I'm thinking of the way it was
Said I'm fine and said I moved on
I'm only here passing time in her arms
Hoping I'll find
A glimpse of us
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes
And that's where I find a glimpse of us
And I try to fall for her touch
But I'm thinking of the way it was
Said I'm fine and said I moved on
I'm only here passing time in her arms
Hoping I'll find
A glimpse of us
