The Vibes Web3 Music Competition is at its 36th week, and I'm glad to be one of the participants. Today, I'm singing the song "Can I Walk with You" by India.Arie.
I was going through a playlist of her songs on YouTube and was just trying to find one that I like. One thing about choosing a song to sing, I think it has to be a song that you like the message, you can easily flow with it, and a song that doesn't seem boring to you or kind of out of your range or your voice type. So, I loved the message of this song and I just felt like it was one I could easily connect with and sing.
It took me a few days to learn the song. The first time I attempted to record my video, it was a big mess because I couldn't even sing the song all the way to the end. I kept making a lot of mistakes and just had to tell myself the truth, I needed to go back and learn the song again, which I did. I returned to recording equipments and went back to learning and rehearsing the song again.
After about two days, I was able to pick up my recording equipment and record thr song again. Although it's not as perfect as I'd like it to be, I know that in the future I might record this song again, even professionally. I just hope by then it'll be near perfect.
The reason I'm putting this out now is that the Vibes competition is almost coming to an end, and I need to post on time. So, I hope you enjoy listening to this cover. Let me know what you think. Thank you for your support.
LyRics by India Arie
I woke up this morning, you were the first thing on my mind
I don't know where it came from, all I know is I need you in my life
You make me feel like I can be a better woman
If you just say you wanna take this friendship to another place
Can I walk with you through your life?
Can I lay with you as your wife?
Can I be your friend till the end?
Can I walk with you through your life?
You've got me wondering, if you know that I am wondering about you
The feeling is so strong that I can't imagine you're not feeling it too, yea
You've known me long enough to trust that I want what's best for you
If you wanna be happy then I am the one
that you should give your heart to
Can I walk with you through your life?
Can I lay with you as your wife?
Can I be your friend till the end?
Can I walk with you through your life?
Now everyday ain't gonna be like the summer's day
Being in love for real, it ain't like a movie screen
But I can tell you all the drama aside you
And I can find what the worlds been looking for forever
Friendship and love together
Can I walk with you through your life?
Can I lay with you as your wife?
Can I be your friend till the end?
Can I walk with you through your life?
Can I walk with you
Through your life till the day
That the world stops turning?
Can I walk with you
Till the day that my heart stops beating
Beating
Can I, can I walk with you through your life?
Can I walk with you
Till the day that the birds no longer take flight?
Till the moon is underwater
Can I walk with you?
Can I walk with you?
This is the moment I've been waiting for
Can I walk with you?
Yea yea
Can I walk with you?
Oh
Can I walk with you?
Can I walk with you?
You are everything I've been looking for
Can I walk with you?
Creative intellectual
Can I walk with you?
Through your life
Can I walk with you?
As your wife
Can I walk with you
