Even though I tried preparing myself for this song, I still end up in tears

@Sususshushis

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 that 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 you stay
Can't quit this so damn wicked
To leave California and me

She sounds curiously mystical. The dreamlike arpeggios could just as easily accompany a classical piece from hundreds of years prior, truly timeless. If our Laufey can make heartbreak so, hauntingly dreamlike and bittersweet then one would really be pressed to imagine what sort of elegance she can’t capture!

@shortgirl8962

Laufey really knows how to write songs that touches the soul. I usually don’t listen to classical songs but Laufey  puts so much emotion and effort into her songs which makes it hard to not listen to. Props to her and the Philharmonia Orchestra.
❤️👏

Laufey, this song is so magical, yet heartbreaking. The orchestra sounds amazing. Thank you for making such a masterpiece and I cannot wait for the new album and the other songs you'll have planned for us in the future! I LOVE YOUR MUSIC <33

@LivingGuy484

The fact that you included the chords was a really sweet touch, and the aesthetic is super pretty

@sstrawberrymusic

OMG PLEASE LET THIS BE AN ALBUM WITH THE ORCHESTRA!

@Honeybee-333

Laufey songs usually evoke strong emotions, but this song hits on a whole new level when you live in California-

@theogoldberg8919

California needs more people like you !

@JourneywAly

Laufey's voice is so angelic. I could listen to her voice every moment that I can frfr‼️‼️

@ZuggyJ

One of the most elegant singers of our generation right here. So masterfully done.

@irino23

"I couldn't make, you, stay" every single time I hear that part my heart breaks into a billion little idybidy pieces it's like a feeling on a different level 😢 i said this yesterday but this song is so magical, yet so soul crushing 😞

@marvinrichards8633

This song and collaboration between Laufey and the Philharmonia Orchestra are the epitome of ethereal!

@cora789

there is something so transporting about this song. you can really feel the emotion in every lyric and the orchestra brings it to another level. you’ve done it yet again, laufey ❤️

@kandorstevenson

While listening to Laufey's duet with Barbra Streisand I discovered Laufey. I went to Itunes and discovered this beautiful song. Thank Laufey for writting such a lovely piece of music🤗🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵
