lyrics

I have walked this earth
And watched people
Doesn't scare me at all
I can be sincere
And say I like them
Doesn't scare me at all

Can't say no to hope
Can't say no to happiness
Doesn’t scare me at all

I want to go on a mountaintop
With a radio and good batteries
And play a joyous tune
And free the human race
From suffering
Doesn't scare me at all

I'm no Buddhist
But this is enlightenment
The less room you give me
The more space I've got
Doesn't scare me at all

Can't say no to hope
Can't say no to happiness
Doesn’t scare me at all

This is an alarm call
So wake up, wake up now
Today has never happened
And it doesn't frighten me
Doesn't scare me at all

This is an alarm call
So wake up, wake up now
Today has never happened
And it doesn't frighten me
Doesn't scare me at all

Can't say no to hope
Can't say no to happiness
Doesn’t scare me at all

Can't say no to hope
Can't say no to happiness
Doesn’t scare me at all

Can't say no to hope
Can't say no to happiness
Doesn’t scare me at all

about

Jess Baldwin Durham, North Carolina

Jess Baldwin's music is a late night conversation in the corner booth of a speakeasy during that magical hour when most people have gone home and taken their small talk with them. Her performances feel ethereal, luscious, delightful, comforting, and healing, featuring jess’ poetic lyrics, lush harmonies, playful rhythms, and butterscotch vocals weaving into dreamy jazz and indie soul tunes. ... more
