New Beginnings

At 17 I had a dream that I could be a rock'n'roll star
I could be making my name out of headline blues
I could really take it far

In '72 it was all for you that I gave it all away
With only 19 years gone I'm singing this song
God the future starts today

Yet it all seemed oh oh so easy then
There was a time, when the world would sing
And the jive would cling

And though the changes won't pass without the feelings
That it wont ever be the same
Somehow the story still remains
With every end I must believe in New beginnings
In all the story books its told
The moral of the toad is to try

At 21 I was on the run so I thought I'd make the move
And the taxman cried and the government sighed
Theres always someone else to groove
After 23 years I was kicking my heels
And the dust got in my eyes
And as the heads fell down, will they lose their crown
God its nearly 25

Yet it all seemed oh, it seemed so easy then
And there was a time, time it could never end
Hey, whos your friend

And though the changes won't pass without the feelings
That it won't ever be the same
Somehow the story still remains
With every end I must believe in new beginnings
In all the story books its told
The moral of the toad is to try.
