New Day 07:02
New day Lift me up from this bottomless x 3 Lift me V1 No I can’t taste any medicine I forget everything that I’ve learned And a mist is covering everything And the pages of wisdom are burned And I can’t feel the ground And I think I have lost what I thought I have found But then remember to breathe And in a moment I feel I am bathed in a beautiful sound Ahh Ahh Ahh Chorus A new day is coming around Yes a new day is coming around Yes a new day is coming Bringing everyone something And we are not lost we are found We are all lonely No one is alone V2 I know exactly what you were just thinking And you know that I understand And you know exactly what I was just thinking And I know that you understand We are all lonely No one is alone Jam ‘no one is alone’ Chorus Lift me up from this bottomless x 4 Ocean of grieving interrupting my feeling But now I am open, receiving Cause now I am breathing
