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

[lira]

the way my love for laufey will never die. i can’t believe someone so talented and sweet exists 🥺

[jokopacking]

This sibling bond is so unreal and adorable! Can't imagine how it feels like to bond with my siblings like this. We used to hit each other with chairs back in the day 🤣

[maiameijones]

that warm fuzzy feeling when you realize this song is abt her sister 🥺

[alicewatkinson]

Her music sounds like falling in love, Chet is smiling down from heaven!

[jmadc]

The one guy that disliked doesn't have a Bestfriend.

[nelvicente]

[elijahmercader]

Me before watching this video but having bestfriend streaming nonstop:
Wholesome about friends to lovers i love it
Me now:
Wholesome bestfriendship between siblings i love it

[carabuse]

I feel like twin relationships have to be one of the best, most fun, type of relationships in the world. Makes me so jealous

[random_dude]

Just discovered her a few days ago, been playing her covers and originals on repeat. I'm so glad I got to be here for the premiere of the official video version of this beautiful song
Edit: The group harmonising "Like shit" is one of the best parts of this song :)

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 hair-do, I'm sorry I made fun of it
It's not your fault it looks like shit

[Verse 2]
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

[Scatting]

[Verse 3]
When we're ninety-eight and ninety-nine
Tumblin' down the stairs, you'll barely catch me in time
We'll argue about what to watch on TV
Finally, pick a movie, then we'll fall asleep
We'll still be a little bit strange, some things never change

[Verse 4]
It's funny ‘cause you drive me half-insane
A universe without you would be thoroughly mundane
There's no one else
I'd rather fall in love with and that is
My best friend in the world

[Scatting]

[Outro]
You're my best friend in the world

[Atia_Hawke]

I also have a twin and this song always reminds me of her, she is definitely my "Best friend", I would dedicate this song to her forever ❤
