Lyrics:
Moved out to a new city
June is dawning down on me
And all that I can find’s
A sickly romance in the air
Lovers stroll without a care in sight
Oh this can’t be right..
Cause the sun’s 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
Touched the ocean fell right in
Stepped outside and burned my skin
My life wont 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 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
Everybody’s falling in love but me - Hudba
the amount of coordination it actually takes to play this song is insane
and sing at the same time, she is talented as fkkkk
no so true cuz I can play it perfectly and I try add in singing and its impossible lol
@@lachlanteh4313facts 😭🙏 doing both makes it like 10000x harder
@@jnbargen5449 yeah fr, but she did write it so i guess it sorta makes sense
I can play the damn song and even sing but my singing skills are so poor man.
As a 22 year old who's never been in a relationship and had quite a few failed dates, this one hits a little too close to home. It's good to know there are lots of others in the same boat though! Only discovered Laufey a couple of days ago but man, I can't stop listening to her. Her voice is just so soothing.
same!!!
Same!!! 23.
Fallen in love but never reciprocated😢
same.
@@thatfamiliarstranger Oh yeah for sure feel that one. Tbf it's gotten to the point where I can't even tell if my feelings are actually real anymore, cause man, my brain just falls in love with random people on the street now
@@CCoreOW you know I can't tell/ remember what love feels like unless it happens. Until it fades away, I let the waves pass through me and when it's gone, I can't even remember how it felt.
Reposted for better quality!! ❤️ hope you like it and thank you all for all the kind comments so far 🫶🏼
Your so cool Laufey thanks for your songs!
I think just keep doing acoustic bossa nova Laufey, its your niche, it's pure bliss and beauty for us and you shine like the midsummer sun in this format
Just beautiful... my next song to learn perhaps... I might just end up becoming a Laufey tribute act!! 😂 Your song writing is right up there with the best!
Laufey I adore your music, and this may be my favorite acoustic video you’ve ever done! Your voice fits bossanova so perfectly. This feels like a warm hug
lady not a track releases from your repository that does not make me want to fall in love and disappear from the internet to dance around in my kitchen and discover myself. the day you disappear is the day i cover contemporary music in a white sheet, hoping it's you and all your talent and passion underneath. I LOVE YOU LAUFEY NEVER STOP MAKING MUSIC XX
It’s a good day when Laufey drops a track
I really hope you publish acoustic version of your albums one day. Your singing voice and playing guitar alone sound simply elegant and perfect.
for real!
I'm dreaming of Chesky Record.... one of the audiophile quality record company
100% agreed :)
on point!
Great song writing and singing!
I love that even as she grows she still uploads these acoustic versions and gives us a little background on the songs. It makes it still feel like when she only had a couple thousand subscribers and such. So personal and delightful :)
Yeah this is exactly how Olivia Rodrigo started out before she accepted her contact in Disney's High School Musical series. Hope she retraces her roots later in life.....maybe with a little nudge from Laufey 😊
This is why she is my favorite singer❤
Laufey's face is just so suited for her voice and that gaze. Oh my love....
Love the Bossa Nova notes!
There’s no problem with Falling Behind in love, it’s like fine wine. The longer it takes to have that someone, the higher your standard gets and the quality rises too… then you end up cherishing yourself more and actually be okay with Falling Behind
Hoping this makes sense and someone can relate
Yah
I hope you are right! I’m 31 yo I’m tired of waiting. But I feel my standards are high but are mine
this is beautiful
This is trippy cuz it sounds exactly as the non-acoustic version. Talent fr fr
i like how it is oldies style
can we appreciate how talented she is!! she writes her own songs, plays them, and sings them. i love her!!!!
Your face while you're singing is beautiful.
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)
I love how she plays the guitar like it's a lyre and it's stunning to have that all on beat while singing.
UGH I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH GIVES ME TINGLES
Sounds great. Love the Bossa groove.
"poking fun at yourself" - exactly what is needed in Bossa Nova lyrics... you manage to capture that wistful, self-deprecating, but also not-taking-myself-too-seriously feel that's so typical of the Portuguese lyrics by Jobim, Vinicius, etc.
How could she sound so bold ? And be beautiful at the same time? ❤️😭
🤯
she's so pretty
my day was already good but a new laufey acoustic cover made it even better
Laufey is literally my comfort space, her music is so relaxing ❤️🔥❤️🔥
laufey doesn’t need autotune autotune needs laufey
i love how the most replayed part of the whole song is the beginning, so nice
I just played this song with my 15-year-old guitar/music student at an open mic night tonight. I played guitar. She sang this and killed! She's the one who turned me on to your music, which I absolutely love! Keep up the great work. This was exquisite.
The chromatic movement in the chorus... wooh, that just hits right!!! Another great song, can't wait for the album
THIS IS SUCHH A GOOOD SONGG. LUV YOUU LAUFEY!
thats so much aura
My niece introduced me to this song and to you in general and this song literally made me cry as I heard it for the first time, and basically every time since this. It speaks so much to the way my lack of a love life has gone so far and many of the feelings I’ve had. Thanks for this amazing song!
The “someone to call mine” part is such an interesting listen, great stuff as usual
This song has been on repeat on every platform I have because its so good. I started getting back into music by listening to your music
Can we just take a moment to appreciate her guitar chops! 🏆🎶
Beautiful.
laufey is too good i swear
Should be on a movie soundtrack. Just lovely.
I love the Bossa nova feel. Another great track. Looking forward to the CD.
Merci pour ce moment jazzy, chaque fois que je t'écoutes, il y a comme un cocon de bonnes vibrations autour de moi.
The français community is so bien
@@gaspardh.7643 😂Un peu de dérision est toujours bienvenue
I already know this is going to be wonderful.
It is.
I think I love when you do this the most. There's something so raw and innocent about it. Anyone can sound great in the studio but to sound the way you do live in your bedroom is quite a different story.♥♥♥
Beautiful. Always love the acoustic versions of your song better. Not that your team doesn't do an amazing job producing and mastering. But nothing beats your pure acoustic vocals and some nice guitar,violin or piano. Wonder if you'll ever see this. Anyways love it as always
💖
Your voice sounds like a warm spring day
As a fan of bossanova, my days always filled with it everyday. And yours brings tear of joy to me.
And you reminds me of the legend catarina valente. Keep do more bossa please. Love from Malaysia.
This is pure magic. Not often you see a talent like this
So looking forward to listening to the new album!! Cant wait!!
What a beautiful voice and song, I'm so excited for the album!!! Imagining the day she sings with Michael Bublé-two modern day jazz singers colliding!
Buble is a broken down lounge act! Hahahaha
your acoustic versions always amaze me by how good they sound! your voice is always perfect, so is your guitar playing and they work so well together :)
I really love every laufey song, like the melody, the chords, everything is just chef's kiss and really lovely.
Absolutely stunning - you’re way beyond your years with talent- incredible -
SOOOO GOOOOD!! Loved every bit of this one. Such cool runs. And so smooth!
Absolutely astounding. I can’t get enough. I’m so glad I came across your music. Your voice is chilling and thrilling.
Man, she's so beautiful outside and inside. Wish I find a gal like her who sings this beautiful and looks this good!
laufey’s music makes me daydream of what could’ve been, how addictive
I love listening to your songs they are so beautiful and really relatable!! ❤
Just perfection...thank you so much! And thanks also for showing the cords...most inspiring!
I’m a lonely 34 year old and watching the years fly by in mere minutes as all my friends are getting married and living great fulfilling lives and I’m losing hope in finding that same happiness. This song is exactly what I needed.
Her skills with the guitar and her voice are so cool!! The way she sings it's calm and soft that makes me feel in peace.💗
LAUFEY?!??!!?? LETS GOOOO
Wow. Such natural talent.
A pure gem of talent.....
Laufey is exactly an extraodinary musician 🥰 I love her and her music

This is one of my favorites off of the album. Can’t wait for new music!!
Speechless at how good this song is my GODDDD
Lovely. Just lovely.
Sooooo beautiful 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
That extended enclosure at the end is the cherry on top!
I love you, Laufey! I so much love these acoustic versions you upload after you release a song 💗
oh my god, how heavenly
i remember first hearing this on one of your instagram lives and falling love… please do more lives like those again, they helped me get through a lot of tough times!
This voice makes a rainy day shine so bright
Know that feeling
Your my guitar teacher now
What an absolute delight listening to you. Effortless voice. This is such a fun song!!
I had a tough day. One thing after the other. Now getting ready to try to sleep... listening to this beast of an artist is the best part of the day. She made a shitty day better.
Laufey, from to singer to singer, you have a once in a generation gift.
Yes,I have been waiting for the acoustic version the minute the song dropped🙂 Iam obsessed
I love her tunes with a twist of bossa nova
Really happy to see Laufey with her book collections...
Your songs are really relateable, much love, Laufey.
Mahal kita ♥️
Laufey, I guess I can speak for everyone, we adore you
🎼Wow, that sounds so beautiful!!!🎶
Thank you for uploading this here, this is my favourite song from your album! It's so much fun to play, Bossa is just >
I love all of Laufey’s discography, but I relate to From the Start and Falling Behind the most. Thank you for your work Laufey!! ❤❤
Wonderful. Simply incredible
A beautiful dreamy performance it’s such a gorgeous song. Your voice is incredible with such beautiful tones just like the amazing singers of the past and present. Thank you for sharing your gift of music.
I adore your acoustic versions!
