https://soundcloud.com/jamie1802/the-end-a-beginningHello all,
This is a song I wrote earlier this year (before I'd begun to think of song writing as a more concise art
) so it is longer than ideally it should be at 7 minutes, but the last 2mins or so is a guitar solo outro, so if it was worth going back to I could cut the song down significantly. I like the main acoustic guitar chord structures so think it could be worth resurrecting, but wonder what others think
.
The song is about not knowing you were looking for something until you'd found it!
The end, a beginning
And I've waited all my life for this, to stand high upon the mountain
And survey the landscape, the air, fresh with promise
I lost my way, I didn't know the answer
In my heart I knew the journey must begin
To a place where the sun could shine and I've waited for this time to come
There's a presence here guiding me to place I can be home again
When the morning comes I will be with you
When the sun shines I will hear you voice again
And the warmth of the sun disperses the clouds
and the wind blows away the rain I feel my spirits rising with the sun
Finding a place where I don't need to run
I think about all the places I've been and all the things I've done
A time for dreams to carry us to a place we can share the fire and the freedom
to bring joy to you and to me
When the morning comes I will be with you again
when the sun shines I will hear you voice again
