About this song

  • “Lover Girl” is the second track and third single from Laufey’s third album, A Matter of Time. Making a return to the bossa nova inspired stylings of earlier hits similar to “From the Start,” the track arrives as a departure from the previous single, “Tough Luck.” Making its live debut on May 27, 2025, during her concert at Teatro Metropólitan in Mexico City, “Lover Girl” quickly became a fan favorite. Laufey introduced the song by sharing its origins: “So, I wrote this song when I was on tour, and last year, I was in Tokyo, and I was missing a certain someone, and I was like, Oh my God, I have become the person that I made fun of for years. You know, like a simp. And so I thought, you know, it’s funny because I’ve always been known as the ‘never going to fall in love’ girl. And now I’ve become the lover girl.“ Following its live debut and a string of teasing posts across her social media platforms, the song was officially released on June 25, 2025. Lyrically, “Lover Girl” chronicles the drama of Laufey struggling with distance between her and her boyfriend. In keeping up with the album’s vulnerable and emotionally expressive side, Laufey explained in a press release: “The hardest part of loving someone is being away from them. This is that story.“ .
