I CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY
WORDS AND MUSIC
VIC HARLAN
MORRIS P RAINVILLE

Verse 1]Woke up to a sunrise, painting the sky,
Some days it’s a rainbow, some days it’s a cry.
I’ve danced through the highs, stumbled through the lows,
But every step’s a story that my heart knows. Life’s a winding road, with twists I didn’t see,
But every scar’s a lesson that’s made me, me.
I’m grateful for the moments, the laughter and the tears,
They’ve carved out who I am through all these years. [Chorus]
I choose to be happy, let my soul shine bright,
Through the ups and downs, I’m still reaching for the light.
It’s been a good ride, yeah, I’m thankful every day,
For the past, the now, and what’s coming my way.
Oh, I choose to be happy, come what may! [Verse 2]
I’ve loved and I’ve lost, felt the weight of the fall,
But every broken piece built a stronger wall.
The future’s a mystery, but I’m ready to see,
What’s waiting ‘round the corner, what’s meant for me. From late-night dreams to the morning’s embrace,
I’m finding my rhythm in this crazy race.
The good and the bad, they’re part of the song,
And I’ll keep on singing as I move along. [Chorus]
I choose to be happy, let my soul shine bright,
Through the ups and downs, I’m still reaching for the light.
It’s been a good ride, yeah, I’m thankful every day,
For the past, the now, and what’s coming my way.
Oh, I choose to be happy, come what may! [Bridge]
When the storms roll in and the skies turn gray,
I’ll find a spark to light my way.
Every moment’s a gift, every breath’s a chance,
To keep on moving, to keep this dance. [Chorus]
I choose to be happy, let my soul shine bright,
Through the ups and downs, I’m still reaching for the light.
It’s been a good ride, yeah, I’m thankful every day,
For the past, the now, and what’s coming my way.
Oh, I choose to be happy, come what may! [Outro]
So here’s to the journey, the highs and the lows,
The places I’ve been and where I’ll go.
With a heart full of thanks, I’m ready to see,
I choose to be happy, just being me.
