*Lyrics* [Verse 1] It's just you, it's just me I lost you in dreams Now I'm falling Please don't catch, let me break Into pieces of hate Still I'm soaring [Pre-Chorus] Kind of sad but you remind me You remind me of a love that I once knew Kind of sad but you remind me You remind me of a love who outgrew me too [Chorus] He released me into orbit Still I found a way to navigate to you He released me into orbit Still I found a way to gravitate to you, oh [Verse 2] Yeah, he told me Here we are close to midnight Something don't feel right Where'd you go? Where'd you go? On your rocket ship Take care you don't slip to a new realm I'll wait for ya by the hotel Please pay my bills before you lose your Head over heels I don't care about this dog and you know I can't afford it I don't wanna get bigger Gravity will hold me down like a sticker, yeah I release, I release you I don't need, I don't need If I lose you, I lose you You can give me the voodoo Like D'Angelo said, "How does it, how does it feel?" He knew how it, how it would feel [Chorus] When he released me into orbit Still I found a way to navigate to you He released me into orbit Still I found a way to gravitate to you [Bridge] Oh no Please don't say you're desertin', oh Don't leave me revolving I'm nearly dissolving, it's true Please don't lie like the last time Left me barely holding on Won't do this again 'Cause I'll spin into infinite moons [Pre-Chorus] Kinda sad but you remind me You remind me of a love that I once knew Kinda sad but you remind me You remind me of a love who outgrew me too [Chorus] He released me into orbit Still I found a way to gravitate to you He released me into orbit Still I found a way to navigate to you

seriously, grammy like RIGHT NOW!

The last minute of this performance had me teary.

It doesn’t matter how happy/sad/mad/chill i am, this song will always move me to tears. Every time. It’s her voice man.

I've been grieving to this song for 3 years now. I can't express my gratitude for Nao's art and for COLORS recording of this session. It's my favorite version I've heard Nao sing.

Nao's voice is one of the purest this Earth has ever known And the song is otherworldly, I could gravitate for ever listening to this

this song makes me cry every time I listen to it, her vocals are so powerful

in one word, this performance is a journey. the way she uses her vocals and gestures to tell the story of the song makes me feel like I'm being transported somewhere. its so so good

It's amazing that what you're going through determines how you interpret things.This songs reminds me of death and that no one can take us with them nor can we hold on to them here. Released into orbit. I listened to this entire album while I grieved and continue to do so. Waiting another lifetime to be reconnected to all those lost.
