This is my first time participating in any of the music competitions on Hive, I have always been shy. With so much encouragement from @starstrings01 and also my personal decision to challenge myself and come out of my shell. I can't believe I finally did this and I do hope you enjoy my presentation, with all the imperfections it might contain. I look forward to doing more in coming weeks and I am certain I will eventually get better and also get more comfortable showing my face here.
So, I did a cover of 'CAN I BE HIM' by James Arthur as my entry for week 14. This song was one of those songs I fell in love with at first listen, I didn't have to listen twice before realizing the amazingness. The song describes how beautiful it can be to connect with someone at first sight, even without even knowing them before. The song is just so beautiful and I had to just pick it first, I hope you find it as amazing as I do. I wanted to spice up the lyrics at first and make it look like a response to the song, like singing from the female's perspective. However, I eventually decided to maintain the original lyrics of the song.
You walked into the room and now my heart has been stolen
You took me back in time to when I was unbroken
Now you're all I want
And I knew it from the very first moment
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song and I want you to sing it again
I swear that every word you sing, you wrote them for me
Like it was a private show, I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again?
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories
I heard there was someone but I know he don't deserve you
If you were mine I'd never let anyone hurt you, no, no
I wanna dry those tears, kiss those lips
It's all that I've been thinking about
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song and I want you to sing it again
I swear that every word you sing, you wrote them for me
Like it was a private show, but I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again?
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories?
Can I be the one
Can I be the one
Oh, when you sing it again
Can I be him?
Oh, sing it again, yeah
Oh, when you sing it again
I swear that every word you sang, you wrote 'em for me
Like it was a private show, but I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there, will you be there?
Can I be the one you talk about in all your stories
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Thanks for watching and reading ❤️
