My Journey's End

The beginning of this project starts with the very first song (with lyrics) that Billy Joel ever wrote. He was 14-15 years old and recorded it with his first band, The Lost Souls, in 1964.

Well I'd climb the highest mountain 

And I'd swim the deepest sea 

If I knew you were there at my journey's end

Waiting for me

Well I can tell how much that you love me

By the letters that you send

And I'd go anywhere if I knew you were waiting there

At my journey's end

Now I may travel to the ends of the earth 

but it really doesn't matter where I'd stay

I'll come back some day

Now I'd cross the widest prairie 

And I'd send the highest plane

If I knew you were there at my journeys end to be mine 

For the rest of my days

Now it really doesn't matter

How many things I may send

'Cause I'd go anywhere if I knew you were waiting there 

At my journey's end

Billy's thoughts: "This song sucks" "you gotta start somewhere"
