NEW DAY DAWNING There’s a new day dawning A new beginning in the air O, There’s a new day darling And everywhere you look, it’s everywhere Now I might fall to pieces tomorrow Would you still be around? Or I might decide to climb that mountaintop tonight And if I do I’m never planning on ever coming down There’s a new day dawning A new beginning in the air O, There’s a new day darling And everywhere you look, it’s everywhere It’s everywhere, it’s everywhere! Well, I can see the city lights from this height Everything is so clear up here And if I looked you in the eyes tonight And told you that I love you Would you be all right? There’s a new day dawning A new beginning in the air O, There’s a new day darling And everywhere you look, it’s everywhere I might fall to pieces tomorrow Would you still be around? Or I might decide to climb that mountaintop tonight And if I do I’m never planning on ever coming down Ooh, I see the sun Ooh, it’s for everyone THE UNGRATEFUL CHILD So much for love, I’ve seen it all I’m going home Look at me, look at me Here in the wilderness Wild and running free The ungrateful child I turned out to be Now all the feeling is gone Look at me, look at me We bought a silver dream And tarnished into green And father walked away When we turned our backs away Now all the feeling is gone Oh, look at me Now don’t you worry About which road you’re on Cause it don’t matter anymore Every road is leading you home Home, home, it’s everything I thought it could be Without me Such a grateful child! (Mama said) Such a grateful child! Look at me, look at me Here in the wilderness Young and running free The ungrateful child I turned out to be Now all the feeling is gone Look at me, look at me I’ve drove a thousand miles I’ve been awake for days I cannot bear the weight Of all the friends I’ve made Now all the feeling is gone O, Look at me Now don’t you worry About which road you’re on Yeah, Cause it don’t matter anymore Every road is leading you home Home, home, it’s everything I thought it could be Oh, look at me! Such an ungrateful child Look at me, oh me! The ungrateful child Look at me, look at me The ungrateful child AFRAID TO BREATHE You remind me of a warm summer breeze That blows there beside me But I’m too afraid to breathe Once I saw her struggle beneath the waves A love, lost, and dying And too afraid to breathe I’m too afraid to breathe A love, lost, and dying And too afraid to breathe Once I looked into her eyes so green They dreamed of a child That I was too afraid to dream And the days of tomorrow lie blowing in the trees They fall, like the mourning But I’m too afraid to leave I’m too afraid to leave A love, lost, and dying And too afraid to breathe Don’t be afraid to breathe Don’t be afraid to breathe Just breathe
STORM CLOUDS COMING I’m running out of time I think I’m losing my mind I’ve ran as far as my two feet Can carry me away from all this madness And somewhere in the night Lightning strikes the ocean But it happens miles from me Much too far to ever see for certain There’s a storm cloud coming Coming over me There’s a storm cloud coming Won’t you please cover me? Oh, storm clouds coming And tonight, it’s raining in my soul Storm clouds coming To darken my soul Now I can’t seem to rise Above these feelings inside I wish I had a window seat 30,000 feet above this madness But it won’t go away And there’s no reason to stay When I find my minds gone deep Slowly sinking underneath the surface There’s a storm cloud coming Coming over me There’s a storm cloud coming Won’t you please cover me? Oh, storm clouds coming And tonight, it’s raining in my soul Storm clouds coming To darken my soul A SONG FOR THE DEPARTED Sing me a song, one final song Sing me a song for the departed Almost gone, almost gone The things that I wanted are slipping through my hands And I’m all, almost gone Let me look at you, the way I used to look at you I want to look at you once more Let me feel your lips, pressing down on my lips The way we used to kiss before Now give me one good reason Why my skin feels like its freezing Like a body in the morgue? Almost gone, almost gone The things that I wanted are slipping through my hands And I’m all, almost gone I been throwing away everything, That means anything, to me I been crawling on my hands and knees I hear the whispering, but can’t you hear my plea? Yes I lied to you. I don’t want to lie to you I just want to lie with you once more Just to say these words that you never heard Before I get what I deserve I’m sorry I’ll give you all the reasons why my heart feels like its sinking Around the drain inside my soul I’m all, almost gone, ooh, Yeah, I’m all most gone The things that I wanted are slipping through my hands And I’m all, almost gone Sing me a song for the departed. JUST A TEAR AWAY I love to fly under my own wings Consoling with the angels about heavenly things I like to hide where they can’t find me Just to look at all the faces of those who said They would always love me And you can’t see me cause I’ve wished me away While the world keeps turning in its own way Now I find myself laughing until I cry But I’m not laughing anymore Ooh, I’m just tear away It may be dark and I might lose my way So float a soft light to me I’ll send my love into the flame Close your eyes, close your eyes And wash the sorrow from your eyes And make a wish on angels wings Before they fly too high And you can’t see me cause I’ve wished me away While the world keeps turning in its own way Now I find myself laughing until I cry But I’m not laughing anymore Ooh, I’m just tear Just a tear away
