The Malibu Highlife Lyrics

I don't see the way, the way you see
Or feel the way you're feelin'
But I can see how you look
And I can feel how your skin feels

Uh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Uh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Uh, yeah
Ooh, yeah

That's what I love

I press my ear
Your chest, I couldn't hear a heartbeat
Because you're cold, wah oh, wah oh

Uh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Uh, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Uh, yeah
Ooh, yeah

That's what I love

Bright, hot nights
The soft soft morning light
And you
My cool, cool ice, you go
"You've lost every ounce of special magic love"
I don't know, girl
Where the hell'd that love and feeling go?

You were always my favourite colour
But now the colour has stained my shirt
My ears are bloody and bleeding
Turns the closed-captions on
(get out!) before I have a chance to change my mind
Don't wanna see you back here a second time
Say you wanna try to light the flame
Won't never ever be the same

I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do
I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do
I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do
I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do
I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do
I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do
I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do
I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do

I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do

Uh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

That's what I love

Bright, hot nights
The soft soft morning light
And you 
My cool, cool ice, you go
"You've lost every ounce of special magic love"
I don't know, girl
Where the hell'd that love and feeling go?

I'm not in love with you
I'm in love with what we do

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

i think that this song is about the realization of falling out of love with a person "i couldnt feel a heart beat" "where the hell did that loving feeling go?". Maybe still likes the idea of the lover "im not in love with you im in love with what we do" pretty straight forward, i think.

not sure where the dogs barking and the police sirens came from... but its all good :)
