COVER TIME: "I Choose You" by Sara Bareilles

Outside of my "normal" cover choices, but I learned this for a friend's wedding a few weeks ago. Just a cute love song. Hope you like.

"I Choose You" by Sara Bareilles

Let the bough break, let it come down crashing
Let the sun fade out to a dark sky
I can't say I'd even notice it was absent
Cause I could live by the light in your eyes

I'll unfold before you
What I've strung together
The very first words
Of a lifelong love letter

Tell the world that we finally got it all right
I choose you
I will become yours and you will become mine
I choose you
I choose you
(Yeah)

There was a time when I would have believed them
If they told me you could not come true
Just love's illusion
But then you found me and everything changed
And I believe in something again

My whole heart
Will be yours forever
This is a beautiful start
To a lifelong love letter

Tell the world that we finally got it all right
I choose you
I will become yours and you will become mine
I choose you
I choose you

We are not perfect
We'll learn from our mistakes
And as long as it takes
I will prove my love to you

I am not scared of the elements
I am under-prepared, but I am willing
And even better
I get to be the other half of you

Tell the world that we finally got it all right
I choose you
Yeah
I will become yours and you will become mine
I choose you
I choose you
I choose you

Love this song!!

So sweet song.

It really is a lovely song! Thanks for watching!

So beautiful @kayclarity i wish i can hear this song live :D keep it up :D Looking forward for more :D

Aw, I wish I could sing it for you one day! Maybe! Thanks for the sweet words :). xx, Kay

I will wait for that day 😍😍😘❤❤ @kayclarity

Nice. congratulations ;)

Nice song again, Kay! I like the camera angle you've set up in these latest videos. It's more at eye-level. You did well on the chorus, especially on the word "you"--it's hard to hit those legato arpeggios, but you nailed it!

I always appreciate your comments! Yes - this one is a lot more work as I still need to buy a tripod (hilarious considering how many of these I do and how often I need it!) so I have to pile a bunch of books and balance my phone precariously lol. But it's definitely better!

You have such a great voice. Please keep doing what you are doing!

What a kind thing to say. Of course I will with great people like you to listen! Thank you :).
