To Be Happier

from First Light by Martha Bean

/

lyrics

Sometimes the sun shines but I can’t feel the light
My fingers are frozen, my eyes shut down tight
And even the grass looks happier, look at it dance and wave
My heart is open, but I don’t know the way

To be happier, happier
Something’s got to change
To be happier, happier
Someday

Sometimes it’s clearer, in my mind I can see for miles
I’m lost in a hailstorm but nothing can break my stride
But how to remember this when demons lead me astray?
My heart is open, but I don’t know the way

To be happier, happier
Something’s got to change
To be happier, happier
Someday

So when you’re alone and you don’t know what to say
Just keep your heart open, together we’ll find a way…

To be happier, happier
Something’s got to change
To be happier, happier
Someday

about

Martha Bean Leicester, UK

Songs are ‘full of charm, delicateness, and pure, unadulterated loveliness’**, veering from enigmatic and sobering, to the brooding razor-sharp.

Recently played on BBC 6Music and supporting the likes of Marika Hackman, Scott Matthews and Seth Lakeman, Martha has a world-class voice well worth keeping your ears open for.
