about

Starting Today was another unfinished composition I had tucked away in my journal until I brought it to the table with co-writer Jamie Robinson. It is a song about looking at the bright side of a break-up; basically looking at the break-up as an opportunity for a fresh start.

lyrics

Verse 1
well it might as well be today
if anything is going to change
God forbid when the going is good
it would ever stay that way
don’t forget your wings
you’re going to need them when you fly
and here’s a kiss incase I forget
when we say goodbye

Chorus
it’s going to be alright
it’s going to be ok
once my head stops spinning
I’ll be on my way
it’s going to be ok
starting today

Verse 2
there will be times when you’ll feel lost
and times when you’ll feel free
times when you’ll be looking back,
thinking about me
they’re just falling stars
and they’re gone before your eyes
memories leave a trail that only
you can recognize

Bridge
take me by the hand Baby
make me understand that maybe
you’ll come back to a heart that’s breaking
face it love won’t be here waiting
