O’Donovan’s cover of “I Love You But I’m Lost” is an elegant piece buy how the guitar playing captures the feeling of wanting to love someone despite how lost you truly are in life. Other than the guitar, O’Donovan’s vocals brightly shine with strong certainty because the singer is expressing her honest feelings for another person but at the same time O’Donovan is telling the person that she is still trying to figure things out. Although O’Donovan feels lost in life, she still has hope in her heart that the love for that person is still there.
