    Story Behind the Song
    "On My Way" is about that moment when you realize that you really are on the right track, and doing what you should be doing. Overcoming the years of negative influence from family members, friends and others to finally realize that your dream is up to you, and no one can stop you but yourself.
    The song was written after I'd been in NYC for about 7 months, shortly after my first solo gig in the village. The club was called the "Fast Folk Cafe".
    It was written in the space of just a few days, but wasn't recorded right away. One acoustic recording was made a few years back that is basically the same arrangement as you hear now, but what you hear now with the band is just so much more.

    Lyrics
    Seems so long ago
    A million yesterdays
    Since I first felt the music in me
    Looked at the road of tomorrow
    I tried to turn away
    Until something knocked the breath out of me
    Now I see
    That this road i walk ain't so lonely
    With this light inside me
    I can see this is the only way for me
    And I'm on my way
    Yes I'm on my way
    Said I'm on my way
    Ain't nothing gonna stop me no more
    Rising up from the bottom
    Of my deep blue sea
    Rising up takes the breath out of me
    Chains that held me down
    Now they float away
    Leaving helping hands as I break the day
    And this road I walk ain't so lonely
    With this light inside me
    I can see this is the only way for me
    Chorus
    And this road I walk ain't so lonely
    With this light inside me
    I can see this is the only
    Way for me.
    Chorus.....
