Opportunity - Pete Murray
Good morning class the song I chose is called Opportunity. Opportunity is a song by an Australian singer, Pete Murray. The ideas presented in his songs are how people experience things in life, particularly personal dilemmas and relationships.
Peter Kenneth Murray was born in Brisbane on the 14th of October 1969. The genres of his songs are rock and acoustic. His first three albums have all reached #1 on the Australian music charts.
When he was 18, his father died while he was contesting the Australian championships of the 400 meters. While on the sidelines, Murray started to learn the guitar at age 22. Eventually, enough people told him that he had the talent to be successful in music and he started a musical career, playing small gigs around the country. In 2002, he released an independent album The Game in Brisbane and moved to Melbourne to pursue a musical career. Murray signed a contract with Sony BMG Australia in early 2003.
And so it goes another lonely day
You're savin' time but you're miles away
Your flowers drowning in some bitter tea
For seeing lost opportunity
Find your mirror go and look inside
And see the talent you always hide
Don't go kid yourself, well not today
Satisfaction's not far away
Hold on now your exit's here
It's waiting just for you
Don't pause too long
It's fading now
It's ending all too soon you'll see
Soon you'll see
Your coffee's warm but your milk is sour
Life is short but your here to flower
Dream yourself along another day
Never miss opportunity
Don't be scared of what you cannot see
Your only fear is possibility
Never wonder what the hell went wrong
Your second chance may never come along
Hold on now your exits here
It's waiting just for you
Don't pause too long
It's fading now
It's ending all too soon you'll see
Soon you'll see
Hold on now your exits here
It's waiting just for you
Don't pause too long
It's fading now
It's ending all too soon you'll see
Soon you'll see
Soon
