I've spent most of my life as a luxury Now I've taken the role of necessity I was taking my time but a new day's come I've been waking up to a little more day I've been taking my walks with a little more sway I was taking my time but a new day's come Make way for a new day Make room for a child Make room for the sound of joy You're gonna hear it for awhile We're only here for a while We didn't make ourselves, can't make a single life We can only make love with all our might Then we can pa** it along as the new day comes After yesterday We can live here together After yesterday In sunny and other weather We're closing in on forever Who'd have known a little boy Could teach me to believe in joy
