Remember when you told me in the morning You said I was tough Tougher than the average woman But I guess that is not tough enough

 

'Cause when you left me on the weekend I was crumbling At the roots and the stem Like a flower dying in the garden

 

Now you're gone I have to strengthen up my little heart Find my own way Light my torch And sparkle my own spark

 

When I wake up in the morning I feel very numb But I'm gonna get through I'm gonna tell myself every day

 

Get yourself up, get yourself up Get yourself out of bed This is a new day This is a new day This is a new day today

 

Snapping your fingers Tapping your toes You are humming a tune You know, you know This is a new day This is a new day This is a new day today

 

On the borderline from what is right to what is wrong There I am and there I try, I try to carry on And when I'm standing on a mountain I feel brave and strong Yeah I'm gonna get through with or without you

 

Get yourself up, get yourself up Get yourself out of bed This is a new day This is a new day This is a new day today

 

Snapping your fingers Tapping your toes You are humming a tune You know, you know This is a new day This is a new day This is a new day today

 

I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change Just the way I see myself today I'm gonna change, I'm gonna change But there's gotta be an easier way An easier way to start the day

 

Get yourself up, get yourself up Get yourself out of bed This is a new day This is a new day This is a new day today

 

Snapping your fingers Tapping your toes You are humming a tune You know, you know This is a new day This is a new day This is a new day today
