Sunrise

 

The sky's a bloodshot pink Everything is gonna change Blackbirds are ready to sing Everything is gonna change I thought I could write the future Of course I was wrong Life's not like a song It never stays the same And everything is gonna change

 

We were never the early birds To fly out of bed singing We were never the very first To hear the bells ringing But now we're standing here watching with our own eyes The sunrise

 

The horizon you had in mind When you and the boys were toasting In the school yard in '99 Was a salute to this very morning As we're standing here waiting for the light The sunrise

 

And everything is gonna change It's a new light, a new day Everything is gonna change

 

There's a promise up in the air Through curtains in every window As faces everywhere Begin to light up yellow And we're standing here watching with our own eyes The sunrise

 

And everything is gonna change It's a new light, a new day Everything is gonna change Everything is gonna change
