Finally! After like, what was it....
Holy Moly! Six months??
Six months after I posted the lyrics to this song, I finally decided to sing it.
Quick Disclaimer:
Like I said, I wrote this song half a year ago, so obviously it's not the best. I wrote this before I properly knew how to write a song, so I completely ignored what "verses" and "post-choruses" and "bridges" were, but most of the stuff I wrote is pretty similar what those are. So I wasn't exactly Grace VanderWaal six months ago, but I'm a lot closer now (yeah, I've written tons more songs since then which I still wanna post).
But I mean, I'm still really proud of this song.
Also, I recently got a ukulele, which is why I put off posting this for a while, since I wanted it to be on the ukulele but was struggling to make a guitar composition. Don't worry, I'll put up a project with guitar chords soon.
Another disclaimer, I do theater, so my voice isn't like pop-song, cute, Grace VanderWaal like, but more like projection, power, and emotion. I know full well that I'm not the best singer xD
I might re-record this soon. I actually did not listen to the audio myself because I knew I would hate my voice and keep myself from sharing the project. The only people to have listened to the audio are two of my siblings xD
ALSO I APOLOGIZE FOR ANY BACKGROUND NOISE I KNOW THAT MY SISTER SNEEZED IN THE BACKGROUND ALSO I NEED TO LEARN TO HOLD NOTES FOR LONGER AND TO BREATHE QUIETLY
And I was really nervous when recording this. You definitely hear I'm nervous. And straining my voice. Gosh. I need to re-record this.
Also, note:
You can get banned for being rude. If you don't like this song or my singing, then you can do one of two things:
1. Leave constructive criticism. I made a guide to commenting, which includes how to be constructive (scroll down a bit to see how to be constructive) Read it here: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/291423/
2. Leave the project and do nothing at all. You won't get anything out of being rude except drama, which tears people apart.
I'm just saying. :) If I see any rude comments or any type of comment that violates the community guidelines, I will report it.
:.:.:.:
This song is about lifting up someone's spirits. If someone's happy, they can help spread their feelings to someone who's unhappy. This doesn't mean that being sad is bad (as stated in the "second verse": "Being sad isn't always bad"), or you should force someone to be happy, but sometimes it can be better to be happy.

Lyrics:

Hey there,
I'm here,
I'm walking on air
But oh dear,
I see,
It's not the same for you,
You're nothing like me
How do you do?
You're sad-I'm not
This is so unfair
But I love you--a lot,
So come with me--into the air..
You can be happy too,
I can be sad too,
We can be happy together...
Me and you...
Please come with me
And you shall see,
We can go to Candyland
We can go to Disneyland
We can do anything
You can do anything with me...
If you'd just be happy.
Hello there,
I'm here again,
I'm still walking on air,
But you're still sitting in rain
I get it--you're sad,
Sometimes, I'm sad too.
Being sad isn't always bad,
But--you--must--pull--through!
You can be happy too,
I can be sad too,
We can be happy together...
Me and you....
Please come with me,
And you shall see,
We can go to Candyland
We can go to Disneyland
We can do anything,
You can do anything with me....
if you'd just be happy.
Oh,
I don't care where we go,
What we do or how,
I just want to see you happy--
And I want to see it now!
Oh!!
You can be happy too,
I can be sad too,
We can be happy together...
Me and you...
Please come with me
and you shall me
We can go to Candyland
We can go to Disneyland
We can do anything
You can do anything with me....
If you'd just be happy.
Oh, if you'd just be happy...
Wow, if you'd just be happy...
Come with me...
and you'll just be happy....

LEGIT EVERYTHING IN THIS PROJECT IS BY ME HOLY MOLY
:.:.:.:
Btw, if you're wondering what ukulele I'm playing, I'm playing a Concert Makala ukulele. I don't know what model it is, but I'll write it here soon.
:.:.:.:
APOLOGIES:
The weird "BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZH" thing my mic always does when it's recording.
Publishing a song I wrote 6 months ago.
My horrible singing voice. There's a reason I auditioned for a straight show and not a musical for once xD
My terrible ukulele playing skills.
Playing the wrong chord that one time (I mean, it still works though?)
Recording while the window next to me was open (gosh I hope my neighbors didn't hear me)
:.:.:.:
If you scrolled down here, hi! hello! Here's a poll: Do you pronounce "ukulele" "oo-go-lay-lay" or "you-koo-lay-lee"? It doesn't really matter how you pronounce it, to-may-to to-mah-to. I'm just wondering you say it. xD
