Like The Movies lyrics
Maybe one day I’ll fall in a bookstore
Into the arms of a guy
We’ll sneak into bars
And gaze at the stars
Surrounded by fireflies
Oh, I’d like to sleep in till two on a Sunday
And listen to the bluebirds sigh
Get soaked in the rain
And smile through the pain
Slow dance under stormy skies
Maybe I’m just old fashioned
Read too many fairytales
It’s no wonder I’ve had no luck
No one’s ever good enough
I want a love like I’ve seen in the movies
That’s why I’ll never fall in love
Oh, maybe I’m just old fashioned
Read too many fairytales
It’s no wonder I’ve had no luck
No one’s ever good enough
I want a love like I’ve seen in the movies
That’s why I’ll never fall in love

Laufey official bio:
Laufey (pronounced lāy-vāy) is a 24-year-old, Los Angeles-based singer, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist whose jazz songs are about young love and self-discovery. Raised between Reykjavík and Washington, D.C. with annual visits to Beijing, the Icelandic-Chinese artist grew up playing cello as well as piano and became hooked on the jazz standards of Ella Fitzgerald after digging through her father’s record collection.
In 2020, while still a student at Berklee College of Music, Laufey released her debut single “Street by Street,” which went on to top the Icelandic radio charts. The song reached the top of the Icelandic radio charts and caught the eyes of contemporaries like Billie Eilish, Willow Smith, V of BTS, and dodie, who collaborated with Laufey on “Love to Keep Me Warm.” Laufey’s ascent has also included winning Best New Artist in Jazz and Blues at the 2021 Icelandic Music Awards, hosting her own show on BBC Radio 3/BBC Sounds “Happy Harmonies,, and opening the year making her live TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Following the release of her 2021 Typical Of Me EP, Laufey was named Best New Artist in Jazz and Blues at the Icelandic Music Awards and hosted her own show on BBC Radio 3/BBC Sounds. Her debut full-length Everything I Know About Love, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Alternative New Artist Album chart, and the lead single “Valentine” peaked at #1 on the Spotify Jazz Chart. In 2022 Laufey was the most streamed jazz artist on Spotify, with 425 million streams across all platforms.
