Opalite Lyrics

[00:00.07] "Opalite" is a song on my album
[00:03.06] That I think is just so infectiously contagiously happy
[00:08.62] And it's, it's really an expression of happiness
[00:11.12] The- the song itself about choosing happiness and getting through rough times
[00:16.18] You know, adversity, and really choosing your own joy
[00:20.79] And your own, sort of path to joy
[00:23.10] It didn't just happen accidentally for you
[00:24.93] "Opalite" is actually a man-made opal
[00:27.66] So I kinda took that metaphor of a man-made gemstone and applied it to
[00:33.16] Well, you know, what if you make your own happiness in life
[00:36.79] I really loved that sort of comparison between the two
[00:40.13] And that analogy and it turned into one of my favorite songs on the album
[00:44.38]
