"Lost Inside Your Love" is a song by the British power pop band Badfinger. Written by bassist Tom Evans, "Lost Inside Your Love" was the third track on the band's 1979 album, Airwaves.

Release[edit]

"Lost Inside Your Love" appeared on the album Airwaves, which was Badfinger's first album since Wish You Were Here from 1974. The album flopped, only hitting #125 in America. "Lost Inside You Love", however, was selected to be the album's first single release. Backed with the Joey Molland-written track "Come Down Hard", the song, like the album, was not successful, not charting in America or Britain. Despite the failure, the single was followed up with a more successful single, "Love Is Gonna Come at Last", that same year.

Cash Box described it as a "lilting pop number" with "lush, full vocals and easily building harmonies" and "a catchy guitar phrase."[1] Record World called it a "mid-tempo ballad that features progressive rock melodies and lovely harmonies."[2]

Classic Rock History critic Janey Roberts rated it as Badfinger's 9th best song.[3]

"Lost Inside Your Love" appeared on the 1989 compilation album, The Best of Badfinger, Vol. 2.[4]
