Della Reese - Brand New Day lyrics

Last night I had a dream that the world was changin' Changin' by leaps and bounds It started up in the bigger cities And it's spread to the smaller towns And the people began to smile at people They'd never even seen And when Jeremiah woke me up this morning I was ready to live that dream It's a brand new day It's brand new way Yeah, it's a brand new day It's brand new way Mother called father on the telephone Because she was upset She said, "The boy left home, naked this mornin' All he took was the TV set" And then the sister picked up the extension And she said, "He's just doin' his thing" And then the father hung up on the mother And all the children began to sing It's a brand new day Doin' in a brand new way Mama, it's a brand new day We're doin' in a brand new way We gotta put our heads together And see where we go from here We gotta fight for what we believe in 'Cause there's somethin' in the air It's a brand new day We're doin' in a brand new way Mama, it's a brand new day We're doin' in a brand new way Twenty million shadows stormin' at the gates How can we be surprised With the image of their fallen kings Reflected in their eyes And the twenty million tongues are shoutin' now It's only heard by a precious few But the years of night are gonna pa** forever When the sun comes shinin' through On a a brand new day We're doin' in a brand new way It's a brand new day We're doin' in a brand new way Mama, it's a brand new day And you have had your way Mama, how we're doin' in a brand new way And you have had your way It's a brand new day We're doin' in a brand new way We're gonna do it our way
