Michael, My Happy Place

[Verse 1]
Met you on a quiet Tuesday
Coffee cup shaking in my hand
You laughed at something I barely said
And my whole world just changed its plans
[Chorus]
Michael, my happy place
Every road leads to your face
When you hold me, I feel safe
Like the world finally makes sense
Michael, my missing piece
You turn restless into peace
Every time you say my name
It’s an explosion in my chest (oh yeah)
Michael, you’re my happy place
[Verse 2]
You’re singing off-key in the kitchen
Bare feet sliding ‘cross the floor
You kiss my cheek, then burn the toast
I’ve never loved a mess this much before
[Chorus]
Michael, my happy place
Every road leads to your face
When you hold me, I feel safe
Like the world finally makes sense
Michael, my missing piece
You turn restless into peace
Every time you say my name
It’s an explosion in my chest (oh yeah)
Michael, you’re my happy place

country, Warm modern country ballad with male or female vocals, gentle acoustic picking and soft brush drums. Fiddles and pedal steel swell into a big, sing-along chorus; subtle piano doubles the hook. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d, chorus widens with stacked harmonies and a bright, open mix., happy
