I'm new to Epicureanism, but I think this song, although it's lyrics are very simple, seem Epicurean to me. And it brings me so much joy

Kind of a song of my personal journey with Epicurean philosophy. This song with it's bouncey percussion and tension of ideation and rumination and release into realization on the keyboards gives me the notion of the perennial achievement and imminence of the telos: Pleasure. Pleasure of simply being can be had "in a heartbeat." The "you" to me could be the philosophy, or Hedone, me when I am really rocking the katastematic pleasure or my really rad natural and instructive Epicurean wife. Use of sensing and feeling words. Closes with the return to duality, dialectic and "magick" and we return with the ruminating keyboards and anxiety. "All seems strange... My whole life has changed. In a heartbeat. Love is shining through in everything you do. Honey in a heartbeat." Ends with the sound of a heartbeat to indicate the choice is yet still mine.
Lyrics:
Standing next to you
A dream is coming true
In a heartbeat
Feeling's right
I finally see the light
In a heartbeat
Something in your eyes
Has got me hypnotized
In a heartbeat
And near or far
I try to be where you are
In a heartbeat
Wanna laugh wanna sing
Wanna do everything
In a heartbeat
Wanna live wanna be
Where's the spirits are free
In a heartbeat
Keep it up keep it down
Keep it turning around
In a heartbeat
Make it dark make it light
Make it magic tonight
In a heartbeat
It all seems strange
My whole life has changed
In a heartbeat
Love is shining through
In everything you do
Honey in a heartbeat
And something in your eyes
Has got me hypnotized
In a heartbeat
And near or far
I try to be where you are
In a heartbeat -
