Lyrics:
I made a promise
To distance myself
Took a flight, through aurora skies
Honestly I didn't think about
How we didn’t say goodbye
Just see you very soon
It hurts to be something
It’s worse to be nothing with you
So I didn't call you
For 16 long days
And I should get, a cigarette
For so much restraint
No matter how long I resist temptation
I will always lose
It hurts to be something
It’s worse to be nothing with you
I’ve done the math
Theres no solution
We’ll never last
Why can't I let go of this?
So I broke my promise
I called you last night
I shouldn't have, I wouldn't have
If it weren't for the sight of a boy
Who looked just like you
Standing out on Melrose Avenue
It hurts to be something
It’s worse to be nothing with you

"I made a promise to distance myself"
You know a song will rip your heart out when the opening line knocks the air out of you
no literally fr
real
You are a poet Laufey
Fuckin’ A
laufey é real
She's becoming mainstream, I used to hate great artists becoming mainstream (I dont hate the artist/the music just the bandwagon people), but she really deserves this level of success. She's just overflowing with talent.
Can't even see people posting about her or becoming laufey as topic until recently, i ahte them too but she deserves a higher ground
@@heyitsbellayay I can understand being concerned that the increased notoriety will make the music more mundane as well. Otherwise, I also think it's good.
I understand mate, deep down we want those artists to be just for us
But they deserves to be heard by the rest of the world
@@njimoses148stupid thought hope you stopped thinking like that gatekeeping doesn’t help the artist and will not make her music more special
I understand what you mean man, lets just watch her career and be happy for her that she got the recognition she deserved
Nobody told Laufey to make the most soul-crushing tear-jerking toe-curling emotional song ever made yet she did what an icon
No actually, Hamas (I think) threatened to behead her little sister if she didn’t write a song like this.
Kinda worked out for everybody, eh?
@@blmrgtrbro 💀
@@cwayzee9173too far down the humor rabbit hole???
@@blmrgtr oh!!! what an odd thing to say!
@@blmrgtr shut up
''It hurts to be something, it's worse to be nothing with you.'' Those lyrics hits me so hard, every song of Laufey is a masterpiece. Live laugh love Laufey!!
Can I ask What does that lyrics mean?
@@user-yy5nu7cs8x basically it hurts to be in a relationship with them, but its even worse to not be
@@moboshirolf Thank you （＾ν＾）
IT HITS HARD
YEAH IM CRYING
i feel like some artists release songs just to make money but every song you release is a masterpiece and you can tell that you definitely have a connection to every song that you write!
edit: yall i’m just saying she doesn’t seem money hungry like a lot of other people 😭
she makes music for the arts not the stats nor the money! a true musician
Best part about Singer-Songwriters
@@stqrseed Nah she definitely makes music for the money too. It's how she makes a living. Nothing wrong with that.
@@rjmari exactly, the more money they get the more art work they can put in their career
Can you imagine how good this would be if she teamed up with a cinematographer who also cared so much about their craft?
"it hurts to be something, it's worse to be nothing with, I've done the math, there's no solution" THATS PART HITS SO FREAKING HARD IT BROKE MY HEART😭😭😭
The high note she hits on “we’ll never last” just sends me. What a lovely voice.
this has to be the best line of the song
Fr
Why this line only have once
My favourite part
I made a promise to distance myself
Took a flight through aurora skies
Honestly I didn't think about
How we didn't say "goodbye", just "see you very soon"
It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you
Mmmm
So I didn't call you for sixteen long days
I should get a cigarette for so much restrain
No matter how long I resist temptation I will always yearn
It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you
I've done the math, there's no solution
We'll never last
Why can't I let go of this
So I broke my promise
I called you last night
I shouldn't have, I wouldn't have
If it weren't for the sight of a boy who lookеd just like you standing out on Melrose Avеnue
It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you
Mmmm
It hurts to be something
It's worse to be nothing with you
😂❤❤

Bringing jazz and classical music BACK!! Super happy to hear such creative and original music that doesn't get enough appreciation these days. Laufey, there's something magical about your "Ella Fitzgerald-esque tone" and classy style. You're amazing!! 🫶🫶
literally
A melhor ❤🛐
There's something about the way that she delivers these lines so elegantly that makes this song especially touching - it's almost as though she's conveying "it hurts me that it didn't work out, but I wish the best for you" through her gentle yet genuine tone... this is yet another masterpiece from Laufey.
She probably studied jazz or Bossa Nova (Brazilian music from the beginning of the 20th century, in general)
If Laufey and Mitski ever collab together one day I will personally sell my soul thanks~
yeaa they doo!
Yessss
YESS
OMFG YES
so far we've had her and beabadoobee. we're coming close!!
i found laufey 2 years ago randomly on spotify radio...never thought i would stick for so long.. you're so damn amazing!
Hi, I'm a girl who never had a favorite singer as a teenager, and I'm now turning 18 this year (the age in Brazil that makes you considered an adult). Big thanks to Laufey for making me feel so good. You are an amazing singer, congratulations on your career and thank you for being my favorite singer
AE BRASIL. Acabei de descobrir essa artista e to impressionado
SAMEEEEE TT__TT
@@rafaelmanso1 CARA ELA É MUITO BOA, CHORO TODAS AS VEZES
Acabei de descobrir ela!
Eu acho que conheço ela faz um ano por ai, realmente é diferente de tudo que eu já ouvi, até hoje Let You Break My Heart Again é a minha música favorita! Se alguém ai descobriu ela só agora recomendo demais as músicas que ela canta com orquestra é maravilhoso
IVE DONE THE MATH,THERES NO SOLUTION. WE'LL NEVER LAST😫😫😫
WHY CAN'T I LET GO OF YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
THIS IS THE BEST PART
This song is so relatable, I’m having emotional issue with my ex, and they just want to be friends but deep down inside I still have feelings for them and it hurts me just to hang out with her, and I promised myself to not talk to her, yet I keep talking to her. This song really hits that point
This is literally my situation today:(
I feel you :(
Havent spoke to my ex since may. I still lover her, I kept myself busy with work etc. But the thought of her no longer with me sadden me up.
Let her go...grieve, feel the pain...it won't last...make room for new refreshing love...
Are you an exact clone of me?
Ahhhh Laufey you never disappoint. I know this will be such a banger! Your so talented!
If this song had come out 70 years ago, it definitely would have been a worldwide famous jazz standart by now
So real…

"I'VE DONE THE MATH THERE'S NO SOLUTION WE'LL NEVER LAST‼️" I'm breaking down
I heard this live and it brought me to tears on the spot because of how beautiful the song was (AND HOW RELATABLE IT IS). Laufey never fails to make songs that touch hearts, can’t wait to hear the studio version😭💝💝
Laufey's music always seem to have such rich meaning behind it -- it's the perfect combination of that vintage jazz and richer sound as well as gorgeous melody that is so soothing and healing.
if I ever die I wish I reincarnate as your son
Dear Laufey. This song is beautiful. I can’t even describe it better. I heard this live a couple weeks ago when you were in town, singing the most beautiful then-unreleased song I’ve ever heard in my life. This reminds me of my younger brokenhearted past. I cried… but mostly because I’m so thankful of my significant other because I don’t have to ever again refrain for 16 long days or hurt myself to be with them.
To my significant other, if you ever find this comment: I’m so thankful for you. In the cosmic dance of the universe, my heart found its eternal rhythm with you. I am looking forward to more of us slow-dancing to Laufey, just like how we did a few weeks ago in that festival. I love you.
Dont make me cryyy gurlll
Each Laufey song has a place in my heart since I identify with each one literally it's me haha, her songs are that warm place that I never want to leave🥺💗. Thank you Laufey for making such beautiful songs with touching and true stories❤️🩹. I love you🥹🥰🫶🏻🩷💗❤️
I want this song in my bones. This is gonna be on repeat.
i need it in my dna
@@Kokouzerzxxx18h.ocw
This is by far the saddest and most relatable song out there. Laufey is a perfect mix of modern and classical and I think the way she writes and composes her music is just so unique. I love her so much, she makes me so happy especially in times like this when Im not feeling my best. I wish she could come to Istanbul or if I could go to one of her concerts any place, but I don't have the money rn to travel so yeah. I also have finals which im so tired for, but I study and use Laufey as a reward for myself. Every time I finish a lecture I listen to one of her songs, it's so calming and peaceful and helps me relax and get ready to study the next lecture. I hope one day I can meet and talk to Laufey and thank her for everything she's helped me through. Thank you Laufey if you see this or not, I love you and I love your music and your vibes. Thank you
Me and my gf listen to you while dancing in our new empty house she always trips on her feet and blames it on having heels she still laughs at herself though, that's what I like about her she knows how to laugh at herself and her mistakes but at the same time learn from them and the first time I met her your song was playing I believe I met my soulmate, I found someone who made the world look less sick and horrible and one day someone will love you and walk through flames for you just gotta wait for the right moment and time and when they come the world will stop and your color bind heart will see a rainbow :)
I feel this with someone I love and the relationship didn't work that hurts me every day
every single song has meaning and thought
every line i can visualise and feel everything
so connected to laufey music it’s practically life support 😭💗
아주 오래되고 추억이 깃들어있는 책의 첫 장을 열어보는 기분이야 선물같은 노래 가수해줘서 고마워요 love you laufey❤
Man, it would be so sad if we were two powerful sorcerer's who were best friends and we broke up in front of a KFC to this song.
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
LMFAOOO😭😭😭😭
It would be tragic indeed 😭
Lmao 😭💀
STOP
there are very few artists who capture the exact type of song i want to sing and listen to and laufey is undoubtedly one of them 🥺 so beautiful
Found this girl randomly like 3 weeks ago and now I’m in love with all her songs.I’m so excited for this song 🎉❤.
SAME
Me too🙌
OH MY GOD I might just change my time zone just to hear this 😭😭😭I CANT WAIT! Thank you Laufey!!
"I've done the math, There's no solution"
"we'll never last, why can i let go of this?"
this made breakdown in tears man.. HOW CAN A SONG LIKE THIS BE SO GOOD?!?!
Promise is one of those songs that make you feel an ounce of heartbreak, desperation, and the need to make your voice heard in troubling situations. Laufey, you did it again. This is incredible. You've allowed yourself to be vulnerable, which then shows us just how complex your emotions can become.
Every song she makes is like a different feeling of the journey of love and loss. Each song is enchanting in its own way, and it has such a beautiful meaning. Her songs bring out the feelings I didn’t know I could feel. I truly love Laufey so much💜
😮
I don’t think I’ve ever had so much love for an artist and their music before. I discovered you almost immediately after your first EP and you’ve been my favorite artist ever since. Love you so much laufey 🤍🤍🤍
LAUFEY DESERVE TO BE KNOWN!! LUV YOU QUEEN!
OMG YES SHES QUEEN
Omg YESSSS
A friend told me about you recently and since hearing you sing I haven’t been able to stop. You’re voice is extremely calming and smooth. Thank you for creating music.
SO REAL
Laufey's saving today's music and my life at the same time
ive been loving the recent releases and how there's always visuals to accompany it, thank you laufey
I can't even describe the way this song feels, it's so deep. The first time I heard it she sent it to me, and it hit me like a truck I almost cried, it perfectly describes my situation, at that moment I just want to run a hundred miles to her and say how I feel. No song had made me feel this way, thank you Laufey
"it hurts to be something it worst to be nothing with you." THIS LYRIC HURTS MORE THAN MY FATHER'S ABUSE
I'm in tears, this song makes me feel like I'm being comforted by someone that you really love and care and makes me feel like no matter whatever tragedy I go through, I will be safe in their arms. Thank you so much for making this song, really needed and really appreciated.
I'VE DONE THE MATH, THERE'S NO SOLUTION' WE'LL NEVER LAST🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥
i remember playing this and sobbing my heart out, I've memorized the lyrics because of it
Real men listen to Laufey🗿
I love every laufey song you can really feel she wrote it by heart. 1:44 really hits me hard.
"I've done the math, there's no solution" She is so talented I SWEAR all her lyrics are so relatable and beautiful its like being let down easily I swear
This song hurts me so much. I love laufey her words are so soft and gentle yet so strong
it’s already out here in the Philippines. it hurts so much and it’s not even my first time hearing the whole song 😭 i can’t even process my emotions right now the song is just perfect
Laufey if you see this, please release a recording of "All at Once"!! Congratulations on your second album! I remember sitting up at night waiting for EIKAL love last year and even that was quite the experience thinking back on 2020 and those little instagram streams you'd host. Thank you for keeping those up even when you've become so so busy!
i wish though that she could make more live streams like in 2020 🥹
@@gian00 definitely! At least we can know she’s been working diligently with her team to produce beautiful music and can express herself in doing so. She’s also been doing it rather rapidly.
The lyrics hit too well 😭😭 , she never misses with these songs. It makes me scream my lungs out whenever I hear her song come on. Her music is so good, Laufey just knows how to make music , music 😭😭.
I SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THIS, this song really hits different. i've been hurting over a breakup that didn't out well, our goodbye wasn't good, he had hurt me a lot as well. ironic, i've cried a lot over him today, and this song came out. it's been around 16 days since everything ended, and i'm trying so hard not to reach out because i know he's moved on. god. i love you laufey, and i'm so glad this song came out today, it's going to help me a lot, i just know.
every single song you put out is such a meaningful masterpiece full of relatable moments! Can’t wait for this song and the new album
update : it was beautiful. im crying now
This was so relatable for me, particularly for my situation which I don't see get talked about a lot.
Basically I'm in a one sided situationship. I know that's not the right term for it, but it's the best way I can explain it. Basically I like someone who doesn't like me back, and they KNOW I like them and their okay with it. Our rs is actually quite close but recently I've been avoiding talking to them because I feel I'm being clingy and akward.
"It hurts be something, it's worse to be nothing with you." Really spoke out to me about the situation😩
This song is beautiful! And your voice brings a lot of ella fitzgerald and barbra streisand into it too....I feel the lyrics so easily, because of the way you've pieced this. What you're doing is inspiring! Wishing you lots of goodness for the magic you're making!
your music is like a warm blanket saying that everything's gonna be alright. thank you so much for another masterpiece! i'm struggling with something for almost two weeks now and this song is making me calm. i love u !!!
Laufey, yet again you amaze me.. I burst into tears as soon as I heard your voice- you don’t know how much this song completed me. I love your music and I’ve been with you your whole journey, I’m so proud of you and this song. Promise has made me feel so much emotion thank you for dropping yet another perfect song🫶
They’ve already started the satosugu edits NOOOOO😭😭😢😭
the way i relate to some of these lyrics, makes me feel nice that someone else feels the same
Tears. The feels. The emotions. The beauty. The melody. The love. The heart. You did it again Laufey🫶🏾🫶🏾 thank you
Found this while listening to the song that’s called “Dupe - MOB Visualizer” 👍👀👀
Any Jjk fans here?(Laufey, your songs always make me cry and your voice is so beautiful😭❤)
laufeys fanbase is so calm!! especially her herself ive never met her before but she seems like such a sweet caring person ❤️
Que bonita canción, hace poco me volví fan de Laufey y vaya que me sigue maravillando. Espero algún día poder escucharla en vivo.
Laufey is just getting better and better, slowly becoming a world phenomenon and superstar!
I think that I'm just unconsciously attracted to her voice. Her voice, her lyrics, her tone, her singing everything...
I love it.
How lucky I am to know Laufey before the fame and now getting all the recognition she deserves ❤️ your songs are so deeply touching
Hey Laufey, I‘ve loved your music from the start on and I’m really proud of your growth! 🥰🪁🎶🌜
Hugs and love from Berlin
LOVE HER VOICE
I hate how the new people that find about Laufey only listen to From the start and like nothing else when almost all of her music is a masterpiece
Let people hear whatever they want to hear 🤠
let people like what they like
It's a good song the chord progression fits really well with her voice
There's good songs and then there's what I call "obsession songs."
The song you listen to on repeat for days the moment you hear it.
The song that you find only 1 of out of the 50 new songs you listen to.
Laufey's every song has been obsession songs for me. I have concluded that I am consistently obsessed with her work ❤
Laufey composes such beautiful melodies with these great lyrics and it results in a cathartic experience. Thank you for putting your thoughts into words and sharing them with your audience of hopeless romantics, the heartbroken and the people yearning for a soulful connection.
Laufey heals and unites all sorts of people with all sorts of stories and that’s beautiful 🤍
Get chills everytime she releases a song
Her voice, her music, her style remind us of a time from the past we've forgotten. A time we can only try to picture in our minds. It was a time when life was easier and music was softer.
A stunning song as always, Laufey. This is why you and your music is held in so many people's hearts.
Hi Laufey! I didn't know I'd love songs in this genre until I heard your songs.
This is another masterpiece. Thank you for existing.
OMG WE REACHED 1M!!! Congratulations Lay, you absolutely deserve it 💓
your music is really calming! this is such a masterpiece 💗
This song is definitely a showstopper.
I literally stop doing my work and enjoy my 4 minutes of pure goodness.
Thanks Laufey.
This song is a one of a kind emotion...laufey really does bring the emotion out right. I love this song forever and ever! I'm experiencing this right now. ❤love you laufey
Tears Fall Down My Face Every Time I Listen To Your Songs.
The fact her songs will ALWAYS make me feel like I'm in a relationship that I never had and makes me feel things I never knew was possible is amazing. This is why she's one of my favorite artists!!
This is one of the most best, saddest, and most relatable songs ever Laufey. Thank you for getting me through hard times :))
Every song Laufey writes has so much depth. It brings out so many emotions. There's no way i can fully explain it. Its humane. Beautifully humane. She has a way with words that correlates with all of her fans. This is why i love your music😭😭
She never fails to make every song absolutely heart wrenching
Hey, Laufey, you've been my motivation to strive for more self improvement the last year after a really painful breakup. Thank you so much.
i am constantly amazed how beautiful your music is. it heals my heart. this song is painfully beautiful.
The visuals are so gorgeous and fits so well with the song, why do you have to make such relatable stories with your songs, Laufey 😭
Live Laugh Love Laufey!!! 💕
Still can't believe this song was releasd on the exact day I went through a heartbreaking goodbye, to a nearly 3-year relationship... This just hits me so hard at the very right moment.. I have nothing more to say, just purely beautiful... Thank you Laufey 🤍
It's obvious the fact that she put her heart in to this song, you can feel it, and the "I've done the math, theres no solution, we'll never last" just broke my heart
This song is definitely in my top favorites. It has such a great tune and it’s so pretty :) Great job on this one
I don't know how I can praise this music with words..... It just touches my soul everytime I listen to you.
if theres christmas in december, now we have laufeysmas in june
Laufey's songs make me feel things i didn't thought I'd feel at all. All her songs are so amazing. Love you laufey💗🤍
This song is absolutely amazing with the classical piano and monotone background. I love how it rises up and down. I love this song ♡
I feel like I can't breathe without him
"It hurts to be something, it's worse to be nothing with you. I've done the Math, there's no solution, we'll never last". It's like saying, "Hey, it's painful to be in this situation, but it's even worse when you're in it with someone else."😭... But anyways, this whole song hits me right in the feels, but also makes me chuckle because, let's face it, life's math problems are just as confusing as relationships sometimes!
