"Lost in You" is the fourth single released from Three Days Grace's third album, Life Starts Now. The song was released for radio air play on February 1, 2011.[1] Much like "Never Too Late", it was a crossover song to top 40 radio. The song is also the band's first entry into adult contemporary stations; the first stations being on CFIT-FM Calgary, CKSY-FM Chatham-Kent, CJRL-FM Kenora & WNIC Detroit.

"Lost in You" is considered somewhat unusual for the band. The song expresses a more affectionate sentiment than is typically found in the band's music.[2] While electric guitars still play a prominent role, the focus is on Adam Gontier's voice and the melody.[2]

The song, unlike much of the band's other works, is quite positive.

It is a song written with simple words: "Let me inside, let me get close to you / Change your mind, I'll get lost if you want me to / Somehow I found a way to get lost in you."[3] The lyrics are bittersweet as Gontier sings about a love that has its ups and downs.[2]

On March 15, 2011, the band released an EP, via online download, containing the piano version of "World So Cold" and a cover of the Fleetwood Mac song "The Chain" in promotion of "Lost in You".[4][5]
