Peter Ward - A New Beginning

Intro verse 1 The time had come for a new beginning The time had come to leave the past behind Like I’d done a few times before, I was looking for the door I was young but feeling pretty tired. verse 2 The home I’d had somehow felt so cold The home I’d had was haunted by the past Struggled to find reasons in that town of 4 seasons What ever I tried didn’t seem to last Burdened by mistakes I’d made I was troubled like never before Twists and turns along the way warning signs I never saw Did what was right at the time was done for ever more Thought I need to be far away if I was honest with myself that day verse 3 So I travelled as a perfect stranger So I travelled onto other lands Soon things grew and I prospered there saw the world without a care And found new friends to lend a helping hand Instrumental verse 4 There were many times that come to mind There were many times I felt the fire ignite Dark outside a London afternoon my guitar was playing brand new tunes And inside I was warm and bright And no one can touch me now no matter what they say I’ve made it to higher ground and its here I’m going to stay Life was ripe for living an adventure in every way I was glad to be far away if I was honest with myself that day Verse 5 The time has come to head back home again And the time has come to see old friends of mine They made me welcome no hesitation, life down under was a revelation I’ll go back some day and I’ll be fine Outro I’ll go back some day I’ll go back some day
