New Day In The Dark

(album: DEEP MAGIC - 2023)

I'm so tired, it hurts
So tired I don't know what to call it
Still, I put on my shirt
Feel around for my wallet
I fumble to the door, and I slowly turn the handle
As I think about whatever it is
That keeps me awake
That's keeping me in motion
As I step out into the abyss

'Cause a new day
Starts in the dark
A new flame sometimes starts
With a broken heart

I remember you
I was on the porch
You were in the front yard
Fumbling the keys
You sat down in the seat
And you started the car
How was I to know it?
You know I couldn't know it
How could I have known it then?
I didn't see it coming
You never see it coming
But I, I never saw you again

But a new day
Starts in the dark
A new flame
Sometimes starts with a broken heart
And I don't know how
I don't know how hard this is gonna get
But if everything is changing
And you and I are changing
Then we're standing in whatever it is

'Cause a new day
Starts in the dark
A new flame sometimes starts
With a broken heart

There's not a light outside your window
It doesn't mean that it's the end, though
So don't give up on me right now
If I've got a fire to burn the night down

'Cause a new day
Starts in the dark
A new flame sometimes starts
With a broken heart
And I don't know how
I don't know how hard this is gonna get
But if everything is changing
And you and I are changing
Then we're standing in whatever it is

'Cause a new day
Starts in the dark
A new flame sometimes starts
With a broken heart
A new day
Starts in the dark
A new flame sometimes starts
With a broken heart
