Lagu ini menjadi rilisan ketiga yang mengawali peluncuran album ketiganya yang sangat dinantikan, A Matter of Time, yang dijadwalkan rilis pada 22 Agustus mendatang lewat label Vingolf Recordings / AWAL.
Dalam Lover Girl, Laufey menghadirkan nuansa melankolis yang menggambarkan kerinduan mendalam kepada sosok yang dicintai.
Ia menyampaikan bahwa salah satu hal paling berat dalam mencintai adalah ketika harus terpisah jarak dengan orang tersebut. “Lagu ini menggambarkan perasaan itu,” ujar Laufey.

Lirik Lagu Lover Girl - Laufey
This skyscraper's causing vertigo
The countdown begins in Tokyo
Twenty-seven days alone
Means 20 million ways to cope without you
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 a lover girl
Forced to get creative, wrote my feelings down
The independent lady in me's nowhere to be found
I can't wait another day to see you
How embarrassing to be this way
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 running 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
(far)
