"Brand New Day" lyrics

Brand New Day

Staring out
Through the falling rain
Headlights reflecting
Off the highway

The light ahead
Turns from red to green
Thank God
Something's going my way

It's been raining
All my life it seems
Fortune hasn't
Followed me around

And I've left a trail
Of broken dreams
But yesterday's mistakes
Won't get me down

A brand new day
Is dawning
And calling me to glory once again
A brand new day
Is warming my soul
Telling me
That life is still a friend

And all the times
I've stumbled yesterday
Are gone and forgotten
With the wind

There's a big jet plane
Passing overhead
Blazing silver trails
Across the sky

Well, I may be down
But, buddy, I'm not dead
And if that plane can fly
So can I

A brand new day
Is dawning
And it's calling me to glory once again
A brand new day
Is warming my soul
Telling me
That life is still a friend

And all the times
I've stumbled yesterday
Are gone and forgotten
With the wind
