about

Halfbeak's best approximation at what happiness might sound like. Swingin' summery Beach Boys meets Flaming Lips number about forbidden love.

lyrics

If I, If I'm forbidden to to speak to you,
Then I gotta write about how it's been since I met you,
Now if, If we can't be lovers,
Then I guess that's why I bought this keyboard and guitar,
Well my life is just a movie,
But without you there'd be not star.

Well I know, I know I don't have a clue,
About what's going on and where it's all going to,
But I think, I think if I could just see your face again,
It would take me back to that happy place where once I knew,
Well I've come to my conclusion there's no way I could refuse,
Well my life is just a movie,
But without you there'd be no star.
