When Am I Gonna Lose You - Local Natives

Lyrics by：Kelcey Ayer/Ryan Hahn/Taylor Rice

Composed by：Kelcey Ayer/Ryan Hahn/Taylor Rice/Matthew Frazier/Nik Ewing

Wait when am I gonna lose you

How will I let you slip through

Careless or unkind

Trace the curving on the coastline

The Santa Lucia Cliffside

We'll stay here for the night

I remember you said

Everything has its place

Now I 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

Or 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

Could I finally see

Between belief and faith

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
