Song information
A song about optimism. Just reminiscing about life. Trying to figure out some acoustic strumming. Imagine Bob Segar singing :))
I think this is folk music?

Lyrics
I cant believe I was born way back in 1962
I was born in a country where the skies seemed to be forever blue

In the summer time I ran in golden fields with a smile upon my sunburned face
The winters were cold all we had for heating was a big old fire place

I was just a child when my family left for a new beginning
Who knew the new beginning would turn out to a life long race with no ending

I slowly got older and I never felt that I had nothing left to do
Still I look back and I remember there were days when the sky wasn't always blue

I Remember the good times, the bad times and there were days when everything could have went right or wrong
I reminisce about my parents generation and I’m sad because they are all long gone

In my old age I met the love of my life and I just witnessed the miracle of having my very first child
People all around me are shocked thinking that the old man has gone wild

This is a new beginning for me.. a new beginning for me.

Now I don’t care what people around me have to say anyway
Like Sinatra always said thethis is my life and I want to live it my way

You know when the sun goes down its just a temporary ending
And when the sun comes up again, the day will bring me a new beginning
I know one day the good lord will take me away into his eternity
I’ll say my goodbyes and when I leave…. it will be a new beginning for me.

A new beginning for me

A new beginning

I'm always happy and curious when you upload a new song of yours. It's an experience, every time. Never too late for new beginnings. I'm a huge fan of Daniel Johnston, and i get the same "feeling" listening to your tunes. Ain't a bad thing, believe me.

@morfadrena thank you very much for listening and the kind words.
@Dr_J Hello J.  I was born in Italy and moved to Canada eh when I was six.  Sometimes people think I have a french canadian accent but I never got English before.  Thanks for listening.
@Dyl Thanks again for listening.  Its a great honor to get compliments from someone as talented as you who's music I love.  I always check out the the artists you mention and I'm always impressed by them and their uniqueness.
@Wyndsok Mike, Mike, Mike 😂  Whenever I upload something I always ask myself, what will Mike think?  I'm glad you like this one.  This came to me from singing the acapello part of Night Moves and of course when a thought gets in my head it always comes out completely different 🥴
@yoslounge  Thank you sir.  Glad you enjoyed and yes I plan to get back to travelling to new places.  You just gave me an idea for a song called "Places I've Never Been"

Optimism! Certainly a welcome feeling.
So much in these lyrics I, and I'm sure many of us, can identify with. I'm just a few years younger (still born in the 60s), but the line "I never felt like I had nothing left to do" resonates with me. There's always something on the horizon.
Thanks for sharing!

@Bowman @Sprout @Amateurhour @jgurner @StanTheManLoh thanks for listening and the feedback guys.  Lyrics about somone's own life are always special.  For sure Stan, I could probably also cut 3 or 4 versus and the intro to make it the right length.

Nice track overall. The acoustic feel supports the personal lyrics well, and the message of optimism comes through clearly. Feels sincere and authentic.

It takes 4 stanzas to get to the big surprise and it's a doozy. Congratulations on a life well lived and in progress, and present tense.
I'm envious!
