Chapters Just Begun - Brand new Song by Darren Claxton

Here's a song I wrote this evening, when I got home from work.
My children were happily playing, and let me record it quickly before mauling me like an over sized man-child puppy!
Being a busy parent with a full time job and love for song writing often finds me fighting for time to get my head and heart full of ideas, out and down on paper. On those rare occasions that I get some free time, I'll even capture the audio!

A long long time ago
my boiling blood would flow
straight into my head
caused me oh such shame
and other peoples pain
constant feelings strained

I've flaws that you can see
and others I can feel
but most of them are gone
most of all I'm me
the only one I'll be
refreshing constantly

Take me by the sea
let me tell you stories
of how I used to be
lead me down the road
stories left untold
and chapters just begun
chapters just begun

years and years rolled by
I sat and wondered why
where it all went wrong
the patience that I found
had pinned me to the ground
my tempers almost gone

Take me by the sea
let me tell you stories
of how I used to be
lead me down the road
stories left untold
and chapters just begun
chapters just begun

Take me by the sea
let me tell you stories
of how I used to be
take me down the road
of tales left untold
and chapters just begun
chapters just begun

I've flaws that you can see
and others I can feel
but most of them are gone
most of all I'm me
the only one I'll be
refreshing constantly
