## **Lyrics**

**Verse 1**

Everybody's talking, nobody's listening

Everybody's talking

Put me in the corner

Wanna hold you in my hands

Hold you in my hands

Hold you in my hands

Hear me in the darkness

'Cause no one understands

No one understands

No one understands you

**Chorus**

Turn me around and I've lost your face again

*(He comes around like the current that takes me)*

Where did you go? I'd swear he's just a friend

*(Please don't leave me)*

Turn me around and I see your face again

*(I can't hear a sound when you say my name)*

I'm lost and found in a stranger's arms again

*(You found me too)*

♪

**Verse 2**

Everybody's talking, nobody's listening

Everybody's talking

Rushing to the mirror

And I don't know who I see

How could anybody hurt you, babe?

What's wrong with me?

Wrong with me, oh?

'Cause you might be gone

But your heart's not gone

But your love is not gone

**Chorus**

Turn me around and I've lost your face again

*(He comes around like the current that takes me)*

Where did you go? I'd swear he's just a friend

*(Please don't leave me)*

Turn me around and I see your face again

*(I can't hear a sound when you say my name)*

I'm lost and found in a stranger's arms again

*(You found me too)*

**Bridge**

Don't get jealous, dear

I start to disappear

I disappear, I disappear, I disappear, I disappear

Say what you wanna say

Be what you wanna be

I disappear, I disappear, I disappear, I disappear

**Breakdown**

Put me in a corner

Wanna hold you in my hands

Hold you in my hand

Hold you in my hand

**Chorus**

Turn me around, turn me around

Turn me around and I've lost your face again

*(I can't hear a sound when you say my name)*

Yeah, I'm lost and found in a stranger's arms again

*(You found me too)*

I'm lost and found in a stranger's arms again

*(Please don't leave me)*

**Outro**

I'm lost and in found in a stranger's arms again

## **Background**

#### **Curiosity album**

Lost and Found was originally intended to release as part of Jepsen's planned second studio album, Curiosity, exclusively in Canada on February 14th 2012. However, before the scheduled release, Jepsen's label 604 Records would make the decision to cut the album down into six track extended-play instead. Lost and Found was one of five tracks to be cut from the record.

#### **Live performances**

Prior to the announcement of Curiosity in 2012, Lost and Found was premiered live by Jepsen on November 12th 2011 in a performance at Headliners, Nanaimo BC. Jepsen performed the song multiple times between 2011 and 2012; these are the only instances where the song has been available to hear in its entirety.

## **Writing and development**

Lost and Found was written during the development of Jepsen's second studio album, Curiosity, sometime between 2009 and 2011. In August 2011, the song was in the process of being mixed with Ryan Stewart at Mushroom Studios, Vancouver.
