Courage

I wrote this song for Song Fight (http://www.songfight.org/). The demo was a simple guy-and-guitar version; the full arrangement on Onward To Yesterday fills the song out nicely. This song was the first test of the recording facilities at my house; I had to move everything back home after the flood at the Ashland studio.


Courage

You've seen the vision
The course is charted out
Made your decision
But still you fight the doubt

Can't lose another minute waiting for help
You won't get what you need from anyone else
You've got to look for the courage to convince yourself
You've done the good thing - you've done the only thing

You sent the message
You had the bridges burned
No time for guesses
No option to return

Can't lose another minute waiting for help
You won't get what you need from anyone else
You've got to look for the courage to convince yourself
You've done the good thing - you've done the only thing

(instr.)

And now you're all alone and looking for help
A thousand miles away from anyone else
You better look for the courage to convince yourself
You've done the good thing


This song (and all the others on Onward To Yesterday) can be heard ont he music player to the right.
