    Lyrics:
    It’s come to my attention
    That I don’t show enough
    Of what I think
    It’s only when I drink I open up
    But I promise that I love you
    Even with that hairdo
    I’m sorry I made fun of it
    It’s not your fault it looks like shit (like shit)
    I have never tolerated someone for so long
    I’ve never laughed so much
    I haven’t written a sad song
    There’s no one else I’d rather fall asleep with
    And dream with
    You’re my best friend in the world
    When we’re ninety eight and ninety nine (ninety nine)
    Tumbling down the stairs
    You’ll barely catch me in time (tumbling down)
    We’ll argue about what to watch on TV
    Finally pick a movie then we’ll fall asleep (asleep)
    We’ll still be a little bit strange
    Some things never change
    It’s funny cause you drive me half insane
    A universe without you would thoroughly mundane
    There’s no one else I’d rather fall in love with
    And that is my best friend in the world
    You’re my best friend in the world

    I don't even know why, but this song reminded me of the woman that I love the most. The moments we had when we were still together. I have always loved her and I think I might just go love her forever but I also wish for her absolute happiness. Miss Laufey, thank you for making me cry through this song, i had long needed that release of emotion.

    She sounds very unique to me. The melody and composition are classic and her voice sounds like singers from early 20th century. But the combination with modern drum pad, effects and mixing technologies gives me impressions of something new. I like her music.

    Discovered your music recently, love your voice and approach to melody. Your vibrato is so smooth, and it seems like you don't shy away from performing emotive songs simply (reminds me of Ella, when she'd just sing the words without making it too performative, you know?) Obviously this song is superb and I can't wait to hear all of your music forever!

    Laufey, just, thank you. Thank you so much for this song. I am not the best with bringing up my emotions with my friend, showing them how much I truly appreciate them. But this song, it makes me only love time even more so. It makes me realize that I really have someone it hold, so yes, I do believe that a life without them would indeed be “thoroughly mundane”. Your unique lyrics make this so much better, I again thank you for bringing this part out of me.
