Happy To Be Here Lyrics

I wanna go to the show
can you buy us a ticket
then let's wrap me up
in a red velvet blanket
first the perfect light
then somebody else's life reappears
and i'm so happy to be here
the lights go down
i just can't wait to meet her
so i hold on tight to my seat
at the theatre
she's my celluloid hero
across a silhouette veneer
and i'm so happy to be here
and i think you sink so deep
you come and wake me from my sleep
and it's good
so good so far
so i dream of you beneath
red velvet stars
and i think you sink so deep
you come and wake me from my sleep
you must be my lucky star
'cause baby i'm the luckiest by far
i wanna go to the show
can you buy us a ticket
then let's wrap me up
in a red velvet blanket
i'm alive and breathing
and this will be my greatest year
i'm so happy to be here

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
