Hey everyone,
A New View is the title of an EP I released earlier this year and this is the first track from it. I've had a really good response from people when I performed it live in an acoustic setting (ie: Me and a Piano) so I decided to record a video of it in it's raw state, just as it would be in a live performance. If you want to listen to the EP you can download it for FREE on my website: http://www.josefpiturariley.com

Thanks for watching!

Lyrics:
There was a man,
Who spent his life laying low,
With his head buried,
In the sand,
He lived his days
Never daring to let go,
Or search for new,
Untold lands,
He stayed quiet,
And out of the way,
Hoping people and years
Would pass by,
Until one day he looked around,
And decided it was time for goodbye,

And he said,
How did I end up here,
Wishing I would disappear,
How did I end up here,
With no-one to talk to,
There's only one thing to do,
Get myself a new view,

But he didn't go straight away,
He was smarter than that,
So he saved up his money,
In a scruffy old hat,
Biding his time,
Till the moment was right,
Always planning to leave,
By the quiet of night,
He hired a boat,
And pushed it into the water,
The tide threatened to steal from him,
But luckily he caught her,
And underneath the ocean,
rushed and swirled,
As he set sail,
For a brand new world,

And he said,
How did I end up here,
Wishing I would disappear,
How did I end up here,
With no-one to talk to,
There's only one thing to do,
Get myself a new view,

Sailing the ocean blue,
Not knowing where to go,
Or what to do,
With his whole life to review,
With a life to start a new,

[Piano Solo]

Eventually he ended
Up in a bay,
He asked the nearby people,
If they could help him someway,
And together they help,
The man ashore,
He wanted to repay them,
But they asked for nothing more,
They only asked why why had come,
And he said,

My life was so unclear,
I wished I would disappear,
But I'm so glad that I came here,
Cos I've got friends to talk to,
There's only one thing left to do,

I'm so glad that I came here,
No need to wish to disappear,
Yes I'm so glad that I came here,
With all these friends to talk to
I've done what I meant to do,
Got myself a new view,
Got myself a new view,
Got myself a new view,

And that new world,
Was just beyond the horizon,
