About This Track

‘Nostalgia’ by MØ is a 2018 pop track from the album ‘Forever Neverland’. The lyrics cast a bright-eyed, memory-heavy return to an early love, complete with childhood secrecy and handset thievery, as the narrator looks back on how it all felt at the time and struggles to believe it has slipped away. There is a particular wistfulness in the way the song measures romance against the year 1997, turning a personal recollection into something aching and romantic. One line sums up the mood, “I was so in love, I thought I was in heaven”.

"Nostalgia" is a single by MØ, from the album Forever Neverland, released 18th October 2018. The track is 3:47 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 8 articles about MØ.

Lyrics

Nostalgia

I remember the first time I was in love
It was all the way back in 1997
I stole my mama's cell phone, yes, and I was turning it up
Tracked down your number, boy
I was so in love, I thought I was in heaven
It was so beautiful, the love we had, the love we had
I can't believe we let it pass, we let it pass
So beautiful, but you were right, yes you were right
We couldn't last, but a blast we had
I know you're hurting, I know your heart, it aches
For someone's lovin', ooh ooh
But the sun shines when the cloud breaks
I know you're hurting, I know your heart, it aches
For someone's lovin', ooh ooh
But the sun shines when the cloud breaks
I remember the first time they caught us drinking
We were out there hanging on our bicycles blowing wheels
I had stole my dad's liquor, yeah, and we were turning it up
High as a kite and we were so in love, so high above
So beautiful, the love we had, the love we had
I can't believe we let it pass, we let it pass
So beautiful, but you were right, yes you were right
We couldn't last, but a blast we had
I know you're hurting, I know your heart, it aches
For someone's lovin', ooh ooh
But the sun shines when the cloud breaks
I know you're hurting, I know your heart, it aches
For someone's lovin', ooh ooh
But the sun shines when the cloud breaks
Come and grab my hand, honey
Don't you wanna be wild with me?
Just like we used to be back then, oh, oh, oh, oh
Come and grab my hand, honey
Don't you wanna dance with me?
Just like we used to do so devoted to the music
I know you're hurting, I know your heart, it aches
For someone's lovin', ooh ooh
But the sun shines when the cloud breaks
I know you're hurting, I know your heart, it aches
For someone's lovin', ooh ooh
But the sun shines when the cloud breaks
I know you're hurting, I know your heart, it aches
For someone's lovin', ooh ooh
But the sun shines when the cloud breaks
