I will never forget the many many many times 

you sang this with me Daddy, 

going to Florida, the whole way down, 

all we listened to was 

the Moondance album by 

Van the man Morrison. 

 It is a brand new day Daddy. 

BRAND NEW DAY

by Van Morrison 

When all the dark clouds roll away
And the sun begins to shine
I see my freedom from across the way
And it comes right in on time
Well it shines so bright and it gives so much light
And it comes from the sky above
Makes me feel so free makes me feel like me
And lights my life with love 

Chorus:
And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day oh 

I was lost and double crossed
With my hands behind my back
I was longtime hurt and thrown in the dirt
Shoved out on the railroad track
I've been used, abused and so confused
And I had nowhere to run
But I stood and looked
And my eyes got hooked
On that beautiful morning sun 
And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day oh 


And the sun shines down all on the ground
Yeah and the grass is oh so green
And my heart is still and I've got the will
And I don't really feel so mean
Here it comes, here it comes
0 here it comes right now
And it comes right in on time
Well it eases me and it pleases me
And it satisfies my mind 

And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day oh
