A New Thing In My Life

(album: Feet On The Ground - 1984)

Here, I'm sitting on my piano
Wondering what to write today
I haven't had a melody all day
Here, I'm sitting on my piano
Wondering if it'll come at all
Sometimes you know, it don't come at all

I've got a deadline and my time is running short
I need an inspiration to come to me
And show me where to go

I need a new thing in my life
To get me through
All the ups and downs
Turn me around
A new thing in my life
To push me on
To something new
That I can hold on to
To keep me going on

Getting on a new high (Oh)
One that I met the other day
Not much of a high
Not much of a day (Sha-bi-du-da-day)
How about nostalgia
Remembering how it was before
When I could feel, now I can't feel no more

The phone is ringing
But there's no one on the line
I need a guiding light to come to me
And show me (Show me)
Where to go (Where to go)

I need a new thing in my life
To get me through
All the ups and downs
Turn me around
A new thing in my life
To push me on
To something new
That I can hold on to
To keep me going on

A new thing in my life
To get me through
All the ups and downs
Turn me around
A new thing in my life
To push me on
To something new
That I can hold on to (Ohh)

A new thing in my life
To get me through
All the ups and downs
Turn me around
A new thing in my life
To push me on
To something new
That I can hold on to
