Light of This New Day

Sun climbs over the mango tree,

Gold on the roof, warm on me,

Coffee steam and a window wide,

New day knocking, I step outside.

Birds draw circles across the blue,

Every little sound feels fresh and new,

Bare feet dancing on the wooden floor,

Joy comes rolling through my door.

I lift my face, let the morning stay,

No cloud can steal what I feel today.

My heart bursts with joy in the light of this new day,

My heart bursts with joy, let the good vibes lead the way.

Hands up high, let the sunshine play,

My heart bursts with joy in the light of this new day.

Down by the market, colors rise,

Pineapple gold and bright green limes,

Neighbors call from the roadside stand,

Smiles pass freely from hand to hand.

Drumbeat walking beside my feet,

Bassline rolling through every street,

I hear the whole town sing and sway,

Giving thanks for another day.

I lift my face, let the morning stay,

No cloud can steal what I feel today.

My heart bursts with joy in the light of this new day,

My heart bursts with joy, let the good vibes lead the way.

Hands up high, let the sunshine play,

My heart bursts with joy in the light of this new day.

Yesterday taught me what I know,

Tomorrow waits, but I won't let go

Of this bright breath, this open sky,

This living rhythm passing by.

If you feel the warmth, come walk with me,

One love rising naturally.

My heart bursts with joy in the light of this new day,

My heart bursts with joy, let the good vibes lead the way.

Hands up high, let the sunshine play,

My heart bursts with joy in the light of this new day.
