First sounds of the day
So beautiful to hear
In the clear bright sunlight that comes flooding
Crystal clear voices, so happy in the street
Oh, the new day beginning is so near
My restless heart's never still
Turning and tossing through the night
Thoughts running wild in confusion
People and places all jumbled in my mind
Oh, the new day beginning is so near
Morning brings peace of mind
And the birds are singing in the air
Gone are the nightmares a-running
And the fear of the darkness has vanished with the light
Oh, the new day beginning is so near
Yeah, the new day's beginning young and clear
