New Beginnings Lyrics

New BeginningsAt 17 I had a dream that I could be a rock'n'roll starI could be making my name out of headline bluesI could really take it farIn '72 it was all for you that I gave it all awaywith only 19 years gone I'm singing this songgod the future starts todayyet it all seemed oh oh so easy thenthere was a time, when the world would singand the jive would clingAnd though the changes won't pass without the feelingsthat it wont ever be the samesomehow the story still remainswith every end I must believe in New beginningsin all the story books its toldthe moral of the toad is to tryAt 21 I was on the run so I thought I'd make the moveand the taxman cried and the government sighedtheres always someone else to grooveafter 23 years I was kicking my heelsand the dust got in my eyesand as the heads fell down, will they lose their crownGod its nearly 25Yet it all seemed oh, it seemed so easy thenand there was a time, time it could never endhey, whos your friendAnd though the changes won't pass without the feelingsthat it won't ever be the samesomehow the story still remainswith every end I must believe in new beginningsin all the story books its toldthe moral of the toad is to try.
