I dedicate this song to recession, |
|
depression and unemployment. |
|
This song's for you. |
|
Today's a new day, and there is no sunshine. |
|
Nothing but clouds, and it's dark in my heart |
|
and it feels like a cold night. |
|
Today's a new day, where are my blue skies, |
|
where is the love and the joy that you promised me |
|
you tell me it's alright. |
|
(I'll be honest with you) |
|
I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain, |
|
fell from heaven like a shower. |
|
(When I think how much better I'm gonna be when this is over) |
|
I smile, even though I'm hurt see I smile, |
|
I know God is working so I smile, |
|
Even though I've been here for a while |
|
I smile, smile. |
|
it's so hard to look up when you look down. |
|
I sure would hate to see you give up now |
|
You look so much better when you smile, so smile. |
|
Today's a new day, but there is no sunshine. |

|
Today's a new day, tell me where are my blue skies, |
|
where is the love and the joy that you promised me |
|
you tell me it's alright. |
|
(the truth is) |
|
I almost gave up, but a power that I can't explain |
|
fell from heaven like a shower. |

I smile, even though I'm hurt see I smile, |
