The New Day Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let the new day shine its light on me
Shake the old way, night's too dark to see
Free tomorrow, it's bright with something new
Believe the righteous and it will come true

[Pre-Chorus]
You're a child in the garden
You're growing up, I'll watch you bloom
And your dreams are not forgotten
You'll be a woman soon

[Chorus]
Love isn't greed, it's a need that goes unspoken
Love doesn't leave when you fade away
Pain isn't vain if it means your heart's been broken
Pain is the same as a means to heal

[Verse 2]
Let me try love, you know I'm only one
Live or die, love, I tried and to me won
We're the future, it's hard to say we know
And the future is what we have to sow

[Pre-Chorus]
You are a child in the garden
You're growing up, I'll watch you bloom
And your dreams are not forgotten
You'll be a woman soon
[Chorus]
Love isn't greed, it's a need that goes unspoken
Love doesn't leave when you fade away
Pain isn't vain if it means your heart's been broken
Pain is the same as a means to heal

[Outro]
Love doesn't fade away
Love doesn't fade away

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
