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

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! ruclips.net/video/vZQU8Sj-QzY/видео.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
As someone who hasn’t had a single crush in their entire life and now questioning whether I even can be attracted to people, this is so relatable.
me too except the only crush ive had was when i was 7
broooo me too
don't know what to do.
prob aromantic or smth
I like this song very much because it reminds me of my feelings before I realised I was aroace (Aromantic Asexual)
@@_jenni4510yeah, probably
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

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

Because
The sun's engaged to the sky

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)
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
Cause the sun's engaged to the sky
And best friend's found a new guy
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
Stepped outside and burnt my skin
My life won't go my way
Bossa nova in my room
Hope that I'll find someone too to love, because

Someone to call my
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...
Its "in sight" not inside
@@user-kg4oy2xv7h thank you
Thank you very much for posting the lyrics…God bless you
@@Ebee7 thank you for reading my comment among all other lyrics comments 🥰
Only real men listen to Laufey
ppl judge me for being a boy and loving laufey's music but its completely normal and its amazing music
@@checkm8bruhFr
So true bestie.
Same I listen to her everyday when I’m on the bus or in class Long live Laufey :)
Real
listening to Laufey really helps you romanticize the ordinary, ugh.
loving the bossa nova feels. NOT TO MENTION THE OUTRO--
THE OUTRO SO AWESOME
@@lumpiavegetariana2196 you can do the other other guy on my side if if ur 😅😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😅😅😅😅😅😊😅or
wooo wooo wooo wooooo
Why is this song mood tho
Brazil getting reconization with bossa nova and laufey making DOPE songs.
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 :)
@@withoutwarningfl Thank you so much, I'm now going to listen to this song and sob
@@TheMaestro1275 no problem lmao. from one hopeless romantic to another😓
The ending sounds like a Tyler the creator song
I literally started balling my eyes out because I've never had my feelings so perfectly shown in a song before.
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
Damn, I didn't know your eyes were cool like that
This will be a classic, 50 years from now this will still come on the radio and be used in movie montages
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!!
I confirm this facts. 😀 Most underrated comment!
@@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.
She really is amazing. So glad to see bossa coming back too!
As a Brazilian i am so thankful that people are listening to bossa nova! Thank you so much. Viva a bossa nova.
WAKE UP EVERYONE NEW LAUFEY SONG!!
Yeah!!!
love the pfp
this hits for exactly what i've been struggling through for ages but really bad lately... tryin to romanticize myself and my own life... we got this.
I just love how you can feel comfortable just telling the comments how you feel🫶 I’ve been going thru the same thing sister/brother!🫶
Awww,@@Bobisnotbobbinynameisnotbob thank you very much!
staying delulu is the solulu
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 feel the same. I feel like I’m never gonna find that right person y’know?
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.
im only 12 years old, but i know that you will find him. dont look too hard, he will come to you. 💗
I can kinda relate, I’m 24 and I hope I can find someone I can do all that stuff with. I’m sure you’ll find your person someday 🫶🏽
I'm you but a 20 year old guy. I have the exact same situation.
me but im 20!we’ll find our someone one day
It's a sign of the times it seems
As a brazillian, I've never heard a foreigner sing such authentic bossa nova.
TOTAL CARA, a bossa nova é uma das nossas mais notáveis características! Solém, irmão.
SIMMMMM
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 :]
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
Ngl this hits harder as someone who is homeschooled and never gets to socialize with people my age
same 😂😂😂😂
oooooooooooof sameeee, especially that i live in a new country with a different language. 😬😬Hope you're not an only child, i got 4
Omg sameee!!
same and an only child lol
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 type of song that would take me back to the feeling of summer regardless of the season☀🏖
Another beautiful release from our Magnolia!
ikr
what my gymbros don't know im actually listening to
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…
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
ruclips.net/video/lwLi9MVAuZY/видео.html
the control she has on her deep register is SOO admirable
If this song had a smell it would smell like dove soap
100%
bro…..yes
Better than taylor swift
100%
Laufey's voice makes me feel the same way the warmth of rays from a sunrise does.
This sounds like a song that would be in Steven Universe
bossa nova vibes are used in steven universe and its great
~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
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.
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
Aren't we all Falling Behind!!??💯💖
Nope
She NEEDS to make a song with lyn Lapid
Lyn did a cover of let you break my heart again on Tik tok and I’m so happy I recorded it
Layfeys songs are so relatable and I love them for that. Her voice is so soothing, calms me down 100% of the time
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😊
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.
real
Not me getting a tinder add before this video played😭
Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind
OMG THIS IS THE BEST SONG I EVER HEARD IN 2023!!!
Real men don’t like laufey, they live, laugh, love laufey
th way she says "someone to caaall mineee" scratches my brain, i love it so much 0:52
"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
WE NOT FALLING BACK ANYMORE WITH THIS ONE
Happy valentines day!! 😘
Real man listen to laufey
i discovered she exists like 3 minutes ago. bro what tf was i doing all this time she is so perfect. her music is so beautiful.
I feel like I can levitate at bed after hearing this beautiful, hypnotizing, and majestic song made by laufey it makes me tear up 😭💖💖
This has a Steven Universe feel to it. ☺️
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.
Happy Christmas to all the Laufey fans around the world!
🥁 🎄🎄 2023 🎄🎄 🥁
This lyric hits different when you’re a teenager and your friends are having a crush on somebody. ❤
Yeah.
This is kinda sad. How can there be so many lonely people? We're all in the same situation, on our own
SHE JUST COUNTED ME INTO 2024!!!
she's no longer falling behind
the aromantic experience
I'm really falling now
this song hit different
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.
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.
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“.
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
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
So soft❤😊
Laufey’s music always helps me feel so calm
Ong
I'm re-visting this song and words can't describe how much it gives me such a nice feeling and its always resonated with me very closely mainly because I don't have any form of attraction to anyone and feel like there is a physical disconnect between the standard and legit this song is such a bop and I blare it and other songs by Laufey whenever i have the chance
I love how it sounds like hold music because when you’re on hold you’re waiting so it sounds like hold music because you’re waiting to fall in love
This song is just too much relatable
Love this song it sounds like a steven universe song or it just me?
The only problem I have with Laufey songs is i haven't found them sooner
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"
Why do I listen to songs like these when they just make my heart hurt more 🥲
She's a mix of mitski , and men I trust. I like the vibe of the music
Early man ko sa imo lol
So real.
I hate how laufey is WAY too underrated like come on, her music is just a masterpiece
Love is like a clock timeless,no matter where you go youll heart will chime at some point -unknown
YA YA YA YA YA YA YA YA YA SHE MY FAVVV! IM SOOOO HAPPY FOR HER!!
listening to laufey is comfort and therapy ❤
oh my gosh i cried hard on the entry to your chorus, thank you for making this. Laufey please please keep doing what you're doing
when you performed this song with LA philharmonic, an elderly lady a couple persons to your right was observably enchanted. I can't stop thinking about her because I felt exactly the same. Your music is absolutely amazing, and I hope to see you continue your absolutely revolutionary perspective on the genre that you approach.
Seriously, I hope this reaches you somehow. You are a fucking amazing musician.
Back here at this lovely song thanks to a Good Omens edit, currently crying over season 2 🥲
ANOTHER GOOD OMENS FAN!!!
this is so random but this laufey's video really gives 1989 vibes
i'm falling behind ‧ . ⊹
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!
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. 😭
This song just make you feel the best at your lowest point ❤❤
playing rhis for new years rn, LOVE U LAUFEYYY!!!
“ And my best friends found a new guy….. I never had a shoulder to cry on, someone to call mine, everybody’s falling in love and I’m falling behind” exactly how I feel. Ever since my ex-bsf had a boyfriend, I somehow knew that I couldn’t catch up to todays “standards” if you want to call it that. I’m 18- you’d think I would have experienced some stupid romance, clearly I have not. I know now no one has to be in a relationship and these ideas are forced into teenagers. Especially the idea of sex is planted in the teenage experience. Looking into it now it’s just all sex- everything sex, everyone wants to love their virginity young, I really don’t have necessary hate for it (but I secretly do) it’s just that I haven’t lost my virginity- and yk what that’s completely fine. But I do in terms feel left behind. I have a hate and love relationship with, well, love and relationships. Idk if most will relate but bish I have a huge MAJOR imposter syndrome, so bitch I can’t really tell if my imposter syndrome is resulting my sexuality be………… Asexual???!!!!!
I just really don’t want to be third wheel to my ex-bsf relationship. Like I’m jealous but then again I’m fine that I’m not you, cause they need therapy.
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 always love you laufey
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.
who knew 2 words could change the entire feel of the song.. this is amazing work!
there´s a lot of bossa nova in this song. Lovely
who else is doing the new years thing 🎉
meeeee!!
Meee
Meee🎉
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 ❤
I can littarly spend my whole life listening to her music 😭💕💕
This feels like a Steven Universe song tbh and I’m all here for it
The Lyrics: 😔
The Vibe: 💃
This song has me in my feels as I'm cleaning 😭😭
So nice song ❤
i get all my love advice from LAUFEYY
IN LAUFEY WE TRUST. 🗣️🗣️😭😭
Remember if you feel lonely because everybody's falling in love when you are falling behind "remember that your true love is still waiting behind the same as you", Stay strong everybody 🫂
Her voice makes me feel safe and warm like a comfy blanket protecting me from the dangerous monsters.
“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 interoperate this song not about being not finding a significant other, but about not being able to find love in everyday things or a hobby. Everybody seems to have something they really enjoy or wanna do, but me.
