Hardly Begun - Original Song



Uploaded by: joeburton77
Video Description:
I came up with this little ditty after watching this interview with Ray Lamontagne:

His seems such a beautiful soul, softly spoken and humble and letting his emotions speak through his music so wonderfully.
Anyways, thanks Ray for your music.
Check out this for info about Ray:

and if you do anything today please watch this truly incredible performance of 'trouble':

Ray sold his VW van to buy himself an old guitar, a Martin D35.. this decision changed his life. So here is my humble tribute to him on my old Martin D35.
Hardly Begun
You are so quiet
So soft, seem afraid
You've had a hard time
It's there in your face
Don't worry now friend
You are here you are safe
For we both know too well
The pull of that place
For you, you are so young
You, you are hardly begun
Don't you see
You travelled all over
Never knew where you were
No landmarks to guide you
No map to refer
From Nashua to Wilton
Utah to LA
Freewheeling, train tracks
But what could you say?
For you, you were so young
You, you had hardly begun
To be
But rest here a while now
And sing please for me
Let your troubles be over
Let your worries be free
And dwell not inside you
The darkness you see
Let pain not diminish
The man you could be

I loved it. It reminds me of a crosby, stills, nash and young song. It goes the song fills the air, but there's no singer there, just an old wooden guitar playing. It's really great mate. Incredible.
