You You wake up to a new day Forwards We move towards a new way oh Come with me Gather with your torches Singing Dance by night we all are strong A new day....oh, a new day A new way...oh, a new way Somewhere the sun shines in the east A new day....oh, a new day Touch me Tell me I'm still human And wild We'll run until we run ??run long?? Our bodies talk, words are lost Hand in hand we follow All around A man becomes the people A new day....oh, a new day A new way...oh, a new way Somewhere the sun shines in the east A new day....oh, a new day You You caught me in your spell Hypnotized You touched me and now I'm ??gone?? Conflict Every day the same Wishing Wishing we could see the way A new day....oh, a new day A new way...oh, a new way Somewhere the sun shines in the east A new day....oh, a new day We watch the sun rise in the east A new day....oh, a new day A new day....oh, a new day A new day....oh, a new day A new day....oh, a new day
