Lyrics

V1: Boarded a plane at JFK
'Cause I just had to get away
From all of life's complexities
They were starting to get the best of me
So I found myself on the other coast
Doing what I love the most
Walking the beach and singing songs
I could do that all day long

Cho: That's so me - searching for my happy

V2: I fell in love- that's a fact
I really thought he loved me back
I'm not at liberty to share his name
'Cause it turns out he didn't feel the same
So I took my pride and my broken heart
Determined to make a brand new start
I landed in this desert town
Trying to turn my life around

Cho: That's so me - finding my happy

V3: Maybe I'm too much of an optimist
Or maybe just trying to make sense of this
Crazy, mixed-up philosophy
That seems to define the happy me
I'm not gonna apologize
For wanting more out of life
No matter where the pieces fall
I want to say that I gave and I got it all

Cho: That's so me - holding out for my happy
