The party went home and the night kept its promiseIt gave me right back to a soft purple skyAnd the gold I was chasing was waiting there for meThe same light as yesterday learning to riseI don't have to hold it I don't have to keep itIt comes back around it comes back aroundIt's a new dayThe light didn't leave me it only went downIt's a new dayAnd the gold is a circle it always comes roundSo I'll open my hands and I'll let the night goI'll stand in the morning and let myself glowIt's a new day it's a new dayAnd the light the light the light found meFor every last summer there's one more beginningFor every goodnight there's a gold in the eastI stopped trying to bottle the river of morningsAnd the river just gave me a little more peaceLet it go let it come let it go let it comeThe day will keep dawning the light isn't doneLet it go let it come let it go let it comeAnd the gold oh the gold it has only begunIt's a new dayThe light didn't leave me it only went downIt's a new dayAnd the gold is a circle it always comes roundSo I'll open my hands and I'll let the night goI'll stand in the morning and let myself glowIt's a new day it's a new dayAnd the light the light the light found me
