Soulful Beach Groove music following in the footsteps of Van Morrison, Eva Cassidy, Bill Withers, Jack Johnson, Elton John and Sting... with a French twist!
Voices in my head
With a hundred things that I should do instead
But I will stay the course
I heard a calling from a higher source
It used to be so hard
It seemed that life was not worth living
But it’s so easy now, now that I know
Know where I’m going
The first step in the journey is the hardest one to take
And the chains around your soul are the hardest ones to break
When you reach out and it seems there is no one you can trust
Just remember that the first step
Oh, the first step... is the hardest
Since the day I left
I haven’t had worries or regrets
Oh yes, I’ve fallen on my face
But I got up and learned from my mistakes
And though I’m not so strong
I never had a clearer choice
There’s so many songs I’ve yet to write
To write and sing in my own voice
The first step in the journey, etc…
INSTRUMENTAL
It used to be so hard
It seemed that life was not worth living
But it’s so easy now, now that I know
Know where I’m going
The first step in the journey is the hardest one to take
And the chains around your soul are the hardest ones to break
When you reach out and it seems there is no one you can trust
Just remember that the first step
The first step is the hardest
Now the walls that used to hold me
They crumble at my touch
And the load I used to carry
No longer weighs too much
When I look back on my life
And how lost I used to be
I thank God I took the first step
I thank God I took the first step
I thank God for the first step
Because the first step set me free
The first step set me free
