Burning My Roots Behind Me* – lyrics by Nicholas R Fuller

We had lots of memories
We had a lot of Joy 
We had some sadness 
As our love was the real McCoy

But you can’t take that with you
And that life is in the past
I can’t let that be my life
My life’s future mold is not yet cast.

On, Onwards I go
Every step on a new path I don’t know

Burning my Roots behind me
With every mile I walk
Burning my Roots behind me
Seeing which way the path does fork

Our lives together are over
The past is set in stone
But my horizon is far away
And I don’t want to be alone

On, Onwards I go
Every step on a new path I don’t know



Burning my Roots behind me
With every mile I walk
Burning my Roots behind me
Seeing which way the path does fork
Burning my Roots behind me
With every mile I walk
Burning my Roots behind me
I still want to fly as a hawk

On, Onwards I go
Every step on a new path I don’t know

Your love I’ll take with me
Everywhere I go 
I'll probably talk to you as a ghost
Through the highs and lows
On, Onwards I go
Every step on a new path I don’t know

Burning my Roots behind me
With every mile I walk
Burning my Roots behind me
Seeing which way the path does fork
Burning my Roots behind me
With every mile I walk
Burning my Roots behind me
I still want to fly as a hawk

Burning My Roots

A non-singer songwriter! Writing a series of songs (Double Album) about western philosophy and philosophers while trying to keep them rockin'. These song explore western philosophy inspire by Nigel Warburton's Book "A Little History of Philosophy" and I started writing them to aid my poor muddle memory.

Picked up the Electric Guitar during lockdown after 20 years and haven't looked back - why did I put it away!

Looking at recruiting a proper singer and other band members to make live music once again.

Writing music and playing guitars (inc bass) keeping me sane in a mad world!

Main influence is 70s Rock, but into blues, soul, funk and jazz. I also play the spanish guitar classical guitar and dabble with the ukelele!

Drums provided by Roland "The Boss"

All songs recorded mainly in my kitchen on a Boss BR 80 and refined/remixed (badly) on Audacity!
