Makna di Balik Lirik Lagu Lover Girl dari Laufey, Pilunya Sepi Saat Merindu

I'm in a reckless fever, love-struck girl, I'd tease her

Thought I'd never be her

Quite the job you've done on me, sir

You've been hosting parties in my mind

I'm working overtime to have you in my world

Oh, what a curse it is to be in love

I wait by the phone like a high school movie

Dream at the shows, you'll come runnin' to me

Think I see you in the wings, God

I'm hallucinating

What a reckless fever, love-struck girl, I'd tease her

Thought I'd never be her

Quite the job you've done on me, sir

You've been hosting parties in my mind

I'm working overtime, you've become my whole world

Oh, what a curse it is to be a lover girl
