Billie Holiday

[Verse 1] I remember when Daddy said ‘What do you wanna be?’ I said I wanna be a mermaid and to live under the sea Well I knew it wouldn’t work out as I looked down at my feet Then my granddad played me my very first record And that’s when it changed for me [Chorus] It made me smile, made me sing Made my worries fly away Lifted me up, set me free I could be Billie Holiday And they say life’s hard to figure out when in reality You gotta sit back, just relax And let it happen naturally [Verse 2] I went to sit by the keys to work on my first song I had the melodies in my head But they were coming out all wrong Then I worked out some harmonies That went oh, oh, oh, oh, oh And then that sweet sound spoke to me And told me where I belong [Chorus] [Bridge] Oh, fly away Oh, so naturally Oh, take the stress away ‘Cause I know, yeah I know It’ll make you feel alright [Chorus] It made me smile, made me sing Made my worries fly away Lifted me up, set me free I could be Billie Holiday And they say life’s hard to figure out when in reality You gotta sit back, just relax And let it happen naturally [Outro] Gotta sit back, Just relax and let it happen naturally
