My new song "One Day You'll Be Happy" - Haim Shim.

[haim shim]

Hi guys.

I've released a new song today, and I'm very excited to share it with you.

A few years ago I traveled Europe, and on one part of the trip, I have rented an apartment for a whole month, far away from everyone I know, and I've dedicated that time for songwriting. I wrote about 11 songs, and I've discarded many others. This song was one of them. The interpretation of the song stays up to you. That's what I like to do with my songs.

 

Here is the song:

 

(The cover image for this song was taken in England). Maybe you recognize the place behind me?

Let me know what you think about the song, Sincerely Yours, Haim.

 

Lyrics:

You got off the train
You took it too far
You have your green pen
And you have your guitar

 

The candle is lit
You've opened a beer
The table is neat
There's great atmosphere

 

One day you'll be happy
One day you'll say
Once I was so crazy
Now I'm on my way

 

Your room and your car
Are now all alone
Your girl is so far
But you talk on the phone

 

You don't wanna live
All Alone with your sin
You don't wanna live
On "What could have been"

 

One day you'll be happy
One day you'll say
Once I was so crazy
Now I'm on my way

 

This time it's different
You used to be weak
Your mother is crying
Cause she thinks that your'e sick

 

But you've never been better
You've never been free
And now that it's over
You can finally see

 

One day you'll be happy
One day you'll say
Once I was so crazy
(oh I was so crazy!)

 

One day you'll be happy
One day you'll say
Once I was so crazy
Now I'm on my way

Congratulations on another release! As a Londoner I can of course recognise Queenie's house. Did you pop in and have a cup of tea with her majesty? 😉 Pretty awesome to get the chance to go travelling and write music along the way like that. 

 

Nice optimistic and well intentioned tune. Your voice sounds particularly good on the higher register around the 1:40 mark. You got a great voice my friend!

@James GreenfieldThanks James. Cool that you live in London. I loved it there. And about your question - No I haven't but it would definitely be an interesting conversation. Thanks again!
