Lyrics:
Should’ve figured
That you’d go back to new york
Don’t consider me
When you run back to her
You don’t have to hide it
I know why you went
Said you needed space
I know better than that
Could’ve fought for you
But I just let you leave
Hurt too much to consider
You didn’t love me
The mountains of LA
Will weep through the night
Driving down sunset's a terrible sight
Left me and the ocean for your old flame
Holding back my tears I couldn’t make you stay
Can’t quit this, so damn wicked
To leave California and me
I imagine you holding her in your arms
Laughing ‘bout how I thought you were the one
I get so anxious and maybe I’m young
The first sign of trouble and I bite my tongue
Left me and the ocean for your old flame
Holding back my tears I couldn't make stay
Don’t quit this so damn wicked
To leave California and me
#laufey #californiaandme #bewitched

laufey songs always have this disney princess/fairytale like feeling and that makes them so magical... i love them. thank you, laufey, for always bringing us songs as beautiful as these ❤️‍🩹

[@shhhyourtooloud257]

IKR! Especially with this new album she's really demonstrating the magical feel of her music which I admired so much. I can't get over it it's so good

[@warmgreytenpercent]

Yes! Anyone saying "there's no good new music" clearly hasn't been blessed with Laufey's work

[@rommelreyes7616]

I feel the same. ‘A dream is a wish your heart makes ‘ (from Cinderella) comes to mind. Ooh, there’s a thought. A Disney princess medley. 😊

[@nathanpark]

Laufey and the Philharmonia Orchestra are a harmonious match made in heaven.

[@LivingGuy484]

There are moments in your life when you think "holy crap... This person is someone special" I think I've felt that at least three times with Laufey. I'm rooting for you, I hope you can influence the entire world someday

[@classiccinemac9480]

Laufey!!! Always magnificent to hear your new songs!!! This new song was absolutely one of the best you’ve shared!!! Love love the piano and orchestra melody as they shine the most in this song!!! ❤️💜🙌 Always love and support you Laufey!!! 🎼🎵

[@nathanpark]

Agreed, the piano was so good! 😊

[@Dodo-ot2ds]

Maybe it sound silly but, whenever i'm travel with airplane i cannot sleep but when i hear laufey's song it's so easy for me to sleep, as if my own mother sing a lullaby to me, thanks.

[@Datreallyhurtedmetho]

youre not wrong

[@SolacewithSona]

You spoke my mind!!!

[@benjaminccao]

i always listen to laufey on the airplane. It's amazing

[@RayBanWearinDog]

I had never heard of Laufey, till today when I came across this song on the new releases on Spotify and my God….. this is a masterpiece. Once in a while you stumble across masterpieces and I’m glad i found this.

[@hanamahmoud2212]

GET READY!! she is an AMAZING ARTIST!!!!!

[@graciebeverley]

I can't believe i've only just discovered Laufey. I'm so glad she's out here making this kind of music. This is what's missing from the world! ❤

[@cheesecheesepastacheese8028]

QUEENNNNN???? ALMOST CRIED. EVERY TIME I HEAR ONE OF YOUR SONG I THINK "IT'S THE ONE, THAT'S THE BEST" BUT YOU ALWAYS DROP A MASTERPIECE. I LOVE YOU LAUFEY, OUR MAGNOLIA 😭💗

[@user-cu6lm9if7n]

Laufey is an artist in every sense of the word, her music is perfectly made to make you feel all kinds of emotions raised in her lyrics, each note touches your heart ❤

[@nathanpark]

Well said... her music gives me the feeling of floating, goosebumps, warmth, and teary eyes all at once.

[@jeannel-p9852]

Love those songs with orchestra, definitely my favs

[@PrincesasTres]

This is the first time I’ve heard her sing so sweet and angelic and not competing with the orchestra at all! Perfection!

[@Connor-wj5ep]

This is a masterpiece, she's so underrated.

[@deton8811]

this feels nostalgic for no goddamn reason but i love the feeling

[@benmagnus0858]

Both the arpeggios and the orchestra emphasise the theme of the ocean so well and it kind of lets you drift away into that song it's just perfect!

[@GunnarFreyr71909]

We have great musical icons in Iceland like Björk, Sigurrós, Kaleo (electrified Delta blues - early in career warmed up for the Rolling Stones (Austin homebase) and Dadi (melodic pop/funk/disco electro mashup, very dance friendly (2 times in Eurovision) but Laufey just glides with ease to their status since her music speaks to many generations and has already made classic melodic jazzy songs that will live. She now has 10 songs or more with the Icelandic Symphony Orhcestra (brilliant - some of her teachers in that orchestra) and now the Philharmonic Orchestra (I assume LA).

[@Kevbo4]

How lucky someone would be to have this short video loop as an actual memory from their life.

Beautiful song. The video is like a romantic flashback scene from a movie.

[@GippyHappy]

Why did I watch for a solid minute before I realized it was looping.

[@Cinema_L]

Laufey and philharmonic orchestras are the best love stories ever made.

[@Tamonduando]

I don't believe in magic but Laufey is living proof it's real.

[@johna6767]

If Laufey ever became as big as Taylor Swift, I would have great hope for the musical tastes of the world.

This person you are singing about is sure missing out on a beautiful soul!

[@rub4578]

This is completely majestic and precious. This is music that really makes us feel, vibrate and express ourselves

So glad Laufey hasn’t sold out- please don’t collaborate unless it brings other artists into your zone.
