lyrics

Where did all the joy go? Where are we headed?
Are we moving so fast that we forgot what matters?
Everywhere I turn, there’s no escaping
On TV, in the papers
More bad news, devastation

I wanna be like a child, curious and carefree
I wanna chase butterflies and run through the fields
I wanna revel in the light that’s all around me, ‘cause I believe

We laugh, we cry
We dream and we learn to trust our hearts
And love never dies
Ain’t it good to be alive

Funny how we’re blind to life’s many blessings
See only what we want to see
So the glass is half-empty
There you are baby, remind me of a truth
Look how far we have come
Against the odds we are one

I love who you are
Heaven sent you to me
To show me what love is meant to be
Unconditional
How magical, incredible

We laugh, we cry
We dream and we learn to trust our hearts
And love never dies
Ain’t it good to be alive

Ain’t it good to watch the sun go down and talk to your best friend
Aint it good to turn the music way up loud
To hear your favorite song again
Kiss in the dark, walk in the park
Sing in the rain, catch snowflakes
Made my choice to rejoice
See the beauty that abounds

Jewelle McKenzie Montreal, Québec

Ain’t It Good, which Jewelle wrote and produced, combines Swing, R&B, and Jazz, spiced with Gospel vocals and a little Rock for an eclectic style that is all her own, making the bold statement that she is not a woman looking for anyone’s approval. Clearly she makes no concessions to pop trends or compromises the character of her artistry as she charms and disarms with her voice and music. ... more
