The Storm by LAU

LAU’s new single ‘The Storm’ will be out on August 30th ahead of her awaited third studio album ‘Digital Dream’, due at the end of the year.

LAU (AKA Laura Fares), a prominent figure in the Synthwave and Retrowave scenes, has co-written this synth pop track with American producer Brian Skeel, whom she collaborated on previous albums.

This mid-tempo nostalgic yet uplifting song is an ode to friendship. The Barcelona-based singer wanted to dedicate this song to her childhood friends, after a lifetime of memories, life experiences and adventures, standing together in good times and in bad times.

Reflecting about this single, LAU says: “No one knows me better than my friends, we have over 30 years of friendship and they are super important in my life. It’s rare and it’s beautiful to still be connected to them every day, even if we don’t live in the same country. This song is for them and for all the long-lasting friendships out there.”

LAU’s third studio album ‘Digital Dream’ will be out on November 15th.

Lyrics

[LYRICS]

We’ve had each other for so long
The perfect match
We go way back

Years go by and we get old
We know each other
Inside out

Can’t imagine living without you
Always there when I’m in trouble
I can’t wait to make new memories
You are everything to me
And more
You are gold

When there is a storm
It’s you and I
When the ocean’s rough
I’ll hold your hand
Cause I will always love you
Even when there’s nothing
I just close my eyes and
You are by my side

We’ve been through so many things
You saved my life and I saved yours
Many girls and many boys
But you were always there and now

Can’t imagine living without you
Always there when I’m in trouble
I can’t wait to make new memories
You are everything to me
The best
You are gold

When there is a storm
It’s you and I
When the ocean’s rough
I’ll hold your hand
Cause I will always love you
Even when there’s nothing
I just close my eyes and
You’re my paradise

Even if we don’t live nearby
I still feel you here
We don’t need to worry about a thing
Cause
we have love

When there is a storm
It’s you and I
And when the ocean’s rough
I’ll hold your hand
Cause I will always love you
Even when there’s nothing
I just close my eyes and
You’re my paradise

There’s a light inside you
In my darker times that
Has given me strength
(Which I’ll never forget)

And I’m always grateful
To have found you here
In this earth

When there is a storm
It’s you and I
And when the ocean’s rough
I’ll hold your hand
Cause I will always love you
Even when there’s nothing
I just close my eyes and
You’re my paradise
You’re my paradise

You are, you are
You are gold
